Project Tooth Fairy: a pan-London initiative from conception to delivery to patient-reported experience measures.
Article in British dental journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Pressure on paediatric dental general anaesthetic (GA) waiting lists has recently been at its highest, further compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic. Project Tooth Fairy (PTF), a pan-London collaborative project, was conceived in response to this backlog. A dedicated day case GA suite was established within The Royal London Dental Hospital (Barts Health NHS Trust) for use by multiple trusts to enhance elective recovery.Over ten months, 895 patients were treated and discharged by PTF, averaging 101 patients per month. The majority required simple exodontia and comprehensive care and some patients were treated for surgery related to orthodontic treatment. Patient-reported experience measures highlighted an overall positive experience and appreciation for the service.Several governance domains were considered in the service development, including risk management, workforce recruitment and information governance. Training opportunities have arisen for team members to develop their skills. Patient-reported experience measures have guided the provision of service focusing on paediatric dentistry and paediatric GA.PTF has demonstrated the creation of a service centred around collaboration to successfully reduce GA waiting lists and therefore improving patient outcomes. The development of this service can be used as a template for the establishment of similar regional collaborative projects.
