Surgical Excision of a Traumatic Fibroma Associated With Orthodontic Temporary Anchorage Devices: 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. 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
Oral fibromas typically appear as smooth bumps that match the color of the surrounding oral tissues and usually do not cause additional symptoms. They are benign tumors of fibrous tissue origin that develops as a result of continuous irritation or damage. Fibroma is the most common benign soft tissue tumor in the mouth. The primary cause is often persistent irritation from orthodontic appliances, restorative work, prosthetics, or other dental devices, which can be worsened by plaque or calculus accumulation. This case study describes a traumatic fibroma caused by the molar tubes and orthodontic temporary anchorage devices (TADs). Excision surgery was performed bilaterally using soft tissue diode laser. For the best treatment outcome, a multidisciplinary approach is always crucial in dentistry.
