Revolutionizing Dentistry by Exploring the Potential of Cone-Beam Computed Tomography: A Review.
Review in Cureus, 2025. 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
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a groundbreaking dental imaging technique that produces three-dimensional, high-resolution images of the oral cavity. It has several benefits over conventional imaging techniques, including as better visualization of intricate anatomical structures, increased diagnostic precision, and reduced radiation exposures in comparison to traditional computed tomography (CT). Numerous dental specialties, including endodontics, orthodontics, prosthodontics, oral surgery, periodontology, and forensic odontology, heavily rely on CBCT. The diagnostic capabilities of CBCT are being improved by recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI), which makes it a useful tool for identifying dental diseases. Longer scan periods, more radiation exposure, and the requirement for specific training for effective interpretation are some of CBCT's drawbacks. The objective of this review is to examine the main clinical uses of CBCT in different dental specialties and assess its benefits over conventional imaging methods in terms of accuracy, precision, and patient outcomes. All things considered, even though CBCT has many advantages, clinical practice must carefully weigh its dangers and limits.
