Research progress of piezoelectric materials in protecting oral health and treating oral diseases: a mini-review.
Review in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Piezoelectric materials, as a class of materials capable of generating electrical charges under mechanical vibration, have special piezoelectric effects and have been widely applied in various disease treatment fields. People generate vibrations in the oral cavity during daily activities such as brushing teeth, using electric toothbrushes, chewing, and speaking. These natural vibrations (or external ultrasound) provide ideal conditions for activating piezoelectric materials, leading to their high potential applications in protecting oral health and treating oral diseases. Based on this, this review reports on the research progress and trends of piezoelectric materials in the protection of oral health and the treatment of oral diseases in the past 5 years, and discusses its treatment mechanism, challenges and shortcomings, aiming to provide theoretical basis and new ideas for the future application of piezoelectric materials in the field of oral cavity. Finally, a brief outlook is provided, suggesting that the potential of piezoelectric materials may enable them to quickly move towards real clinical applications.
