A Review on the Expanding Role of Dentists in Facial Esthetics.
Review in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 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
Dentists' role in facial esthetics is growing, with advancements in cosmetic procedures, such as Botox and dermal fillers. Understanding the range of practitioners and their professional backgrounds is crucial for addressing risks. Data collection and analysis was done to retrieve scholarly papers using databases, such as PubMed and advanced Google search, and analyze. Currently, the role of dentists in facial beauty is gaining huge interest. This is a new and controversial issue in this era of society. Botox and dermal fillers help general dentists create a harmonious smile by controlling soft tissues. Further training may be required to perform esthetic procedures, such as Botox or dermal fillers, in areas other than the perioral region. Complications might occur due to inadequate education. Dentists must be competent to administer these agents, such as traditional providers. The review paper concludes that dentistry students are becoming more interested in cosmetic treatments. Cosmetic practice in dental education may be strengthened by combining topics, such as dermal fillers in materials science, botulinum toxin (BTX) in pharmacology, and anatomy of the aging face in dentistry with emphasis on medicolegal laws, policies, and ethics involved.
