1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesThis study investigated the influence of prophylactic treatments and thermocycling on the marginal and internal veneering interface (tooth-veneer) as well as on the surface texture of ceramic veneers. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 32 extracted human premolars were restored with veneers made of lithium disilicate (LDS) or zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS). An artificial aging of the specimens was conducted via five cycles of both thermocycling (5/55°C) and prophylactic treatment (powder air polishing or ultrasonic scaling). Changes in the marginal interface and in the surface texture were examined using confocal laser scanning microscopy. The internal interface and the microstructure were investigated using micro X-ray computed tomography.

resultsArtificial aging resulted in a deepening of the marginal interface across all groups (mean height: 4.51-15.74 μm, maximum height: 10.42-22.71 μm, cross-section: 256.68-1525.84 μm², regardless of the veneer material or prophylaxis method. No change in surface texture was observed. The internal interface exhibited defects for all groups after artificial aging. ZLS showed cracks in five out of eight veneers after exposure to ultrasonic scaling and thermocycling.

conclusionCeramic veneers exhibited a high resistance to prophylactic measures in terms of surface durability, but a deepening of the marginal interface should be taken into account. With regard to the formation of cracks within the material, the use of ultrasonic scaling is not recommended for ZLS veneers. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The influence of artificial aging, including prophylactic treatments, plays a critical role in assessing longevity for veneers in defect-oriented and esthetic dentistry.
