Utilization of Digital Periodontal and Restorative Dentistry in Full Mouth Reconstruction: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
CT-guided surgery has demonstrated superior accuracy over traditional methods in the dental literature. However, inherent errors such as discrepancies between jaw dimensions in scans and reality can challenge the fabrication of screw-retained provisional restorations. These discrepancies can impede final restoration fabrication. Traditional immediate loading of edentulous jaws using temporary cylinders in existing dentures often requires time-consuming abutment positioning and drilling. Many articles addressed these issues through minimally invasive implant placement with immediate loading, achieved through careful preoperative planning and exact prosthetic techniques. CT-guided surgery facilitates minimally invasive procedures and immediate restoration of edentulous jaws, resulting in reduced morbidity and quicker, more precise outcomes. This case report illustrates how digital dentistry enhances implant placement precision and reliability. It involves using a lock object system between the surgical guide and provisional restoration, streamlining the process. A 59-year-old male with significant periodontal issues and non-restorable teeth was treated with implant-supported fixed prostheses using digital planning and computer-fabricated surgical guides. The plan included immediate loading with mechanical and magnetic locks for optimal outcomes. The patient received complete fixed provisional restorations on both arches through minimally invasive procedures. Digital dentistry facilitated precise implant placement and restoration, improving function, esthetics, and patient satisfaction. Digital technologies streamlined the process, reducing time and enhancing predictability and reproducibility. In conclusion, integrating digital dentistry into implant treatment planning and execution offers enhanced accuracy, efficiency, and patient outcomes. By utilizing digital technologies and innovative methods, clinicians can attain consistent and reliable outcomes, thereby enhancing the quality of care for patients undergoing implant therapy.
