Navigating the Revolutionary Pathway Through Addressing the Challenges in Implementing Dental Blockchain Technology: A Review.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The integration of blockchain technology into the dental industry has a significant potential to change different aspects, especially patient data management, safety registration, and improving the transparency of transactions. However, the application of dental blockchain faces many challenges, such as technology complexity, obstacles as prescribed, data security issues, and resistance to the changes of stakeholders in the industry. This review article discovers the revolutionary path of blockchain implementation in dental practice by offering these challenges and an overview of feasible solutions. It examines the current status of dental blockchain technology, its potential advantages in improving safety, access, and efficiency, and obstacles that lead to general implementation. Further inspection of the pilot applications and projects in the real world, emphasizing the need for standardized executives, cooperation between stakeholders, and creative approaches to overcome obstacles, is crucial to bridge the existing gap. Finally, the article has a roadmap for future research and development to guide dental experts, decisions, and technologies to navigate the evolutionary landscape of dental blockchain technology successfully.
