Successful auto-transplantation of a mandibular third molar: A case report on restoring esthetics and function in a 66-year-old patient.

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
Key Clinical Message: This article describes a successful case of auto-transplantation of a mandibular third molar to replace a non-restorable second molar, highlighting the efficacy of this procedure in restoring function with factors like asepsis, surgical technique, and postoperative care contributing to the success. Abstract: This case report describes successful auto-transplantation of a mandibular third molar to replace a non-restorable second molar in a 66-year-old patient. The procedure involved atraumatic extraction, repositioning, and stabilization of the donor tooth, followed by postoperative care and 1-year follow-up. The favorable outcome highlights the potential of mature third molar transplantation as an effective approach for replacement of missing or non-restorable permanent molar teeth to restore esthetics and function. The success of the procedure was attributed to factors such as asepsis, atraumatic surgical technique, preservation of the periodontal ligament (PDL) vitality, minimal extraoral time, optimal occlusion, and adequate fixation. At the 1-year follow-up, the patient was asymptomatic with stable occlusion, highlighting the optimal efficacy of the procedure.
