Calcified Canal Conquered: A Case Report of Minimally Invasive Management of a Calcified Maxillary Central Incisor Using the PriciGuide® System.

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
Calcification of the root canal system presents a significant clinical challenge, increasing the risk of procedural complications. This case report describes the management of a 26-year-old female patient who presented with a chief concern of discoloration in her maxillary central incisors. Radiographic examination revealed a periapical lesion and obliteration of the canal in the left maxillary central incisor. The case highlights the effective use of the PriciGuide® system in accurately locating the calcified canal while preserving the integrity of a healthy tooth structure. Following root canal treatment, aesthetic rehabilitation was performed, which included internal bleaching and the fabrication of direct composite veneers. This guided endodontic approach enabled safe negotiation of the calcified canal, ensuring thorough cleaning, shaping, and filling. By minimizing unnecessary dentin removal, the PriciGuide® system provided a conservative solution that contributed to the preservation of tooth integrity and the successful treatment of this challenging case.
