Post-surgical complications of supernumerary teeth in the mandibular premolar area: A systematic review.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In the mandibular premolar area, supernumerary teeth are a rare disorder that are rarely documented in the literature. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the post-surgical problems associated with the buccal and lingual techniques used to treat the extra teeth in this area. Using PubMed, PubMed Central, Science Direct, Cochrane, Wiley, and manual search, a thorough search was done to locate and identify cases and case series with extra teeth in the mandibular premolar region. For every study that was included, data on the surgical technique and postoperative problems were documented. Seven studies involving 90 patients were included. Supernumerary teeth in the mandibular premolar region were predominantly found in male patients (65.55 %), with most cases occurring in the right mandibular region (77.16 %). Postoperative complications after removing supernumerary teeth using buccal and lingual approaches were similar, with only one complication reported among the 90 cases reviewed. Although the findings suggest that surgical management of supernumerary teeth in the mandibular premolar region is relatively safe, caution is advised due to the limited sample size. Detailed pre-operative evaluation, a comprehensive treatment plan, and regular follow-up can minimize postoperative complications.
