Optimizing Resin Infiltration Procedure in Molar Incisor Hypomineralization Lesions.
Article in Journal of esthetic and restorative dentistry : official publication of the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry ... [et al.], 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveThis article aims to describe a new technique for predicting the results of resin infiltration procedure in molar incisor hypomineralization lesions, named Infiltration Monitoring by Transillumination. The technique involves the use of transillumination together with ethanol application during the steps of lesion body opening and resin penetration. It provides color contrast that enhances the removal of the less porous surface layer and controls the effectiveness of resin infiltration within the lesion. CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS: The clinical procedure presented illustrates the steps involved in the resin infiltration procedure for color masking of molar incisor hypomineralization lesions in anterior teeth, highlighting the use of transillumination both for monitoring the lesion body opening step and the resin infiltration process.
conclusionsThe monitoring with transillumination during the ethanol test can assist the removal of the enamel external layer over the lesion, necessary to expose the inner porosity to be infiltrated, in a very precise and conservative way. In addition, it can effectively help to determine the moment when the infiltrant resin has fully penetrated the lesion. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The Infiltration Monitoring by Transillumination technique offers the possibility to precisely control the infiltration procedure in molar incisor hypomineralization lesions, thereby improving the predictability of the esthetic outcome.
