Precision Extraction of Lingual Mandibular Supernumerary Teeth Using Dynamic Navigation and High-Speed Handpieces: A Case Report.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND The extraction of impacted supernumerary teeth requires precision and accuracy to mitigate iatrogenic damage to crucial anatomical structures during dental surgical procedures, thereby enhancing postoperative healing outcomes. Dynamic navigation systems (DNS) have been applied in dentistry in maxillofacial fractures, orthognathic surgery, root canal treatment, and endodontic surgery. CASE REPORT A 22-year-old female patient visited our department to assess and manage unerupted third molars. An initial cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan was obtained. Radiographic and clinical examinations showed the presence of a supernumerary tooth impacted on the lingual side between the root of the lower second premolar and the lower first molar and bilateral lower impacted third molars. The patient agreed to removal of these teeth. To perform the treatment planning of this case and to guide the surgeon intraoperatively, a dynamic surgical navigation system was recommended for surgical extraction of a supernumerary tooth and the impacted third molars. CONCLUSIONS The dynamic navigation system coupled with a high-speed contra-angle handpiece for the extraction of supernumerary teeth is a personalized, digitally-driven, precise, minimally invasive, and efficient treatment approach. In this case, the DNS and the high-speed contra-angle handpiece were seamlessly integrated to facilitate visualization of the surgical procedure, thereby safeguarding of surrounding vital anatomical structures while enhancing patient comfort.
