Non-Surgical Treatment of Bilateral Dens Invaginatus in Maxillary Lateral Incisors: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 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
Dens invaginatus (DI) is a dental developmental malformation, with 43% of the reported cases involving bilateral occurrence. Based on its manifestations, DI is classified into different types. Due to the complex anatomy, teeth with DI are more susceptible to caries and pulpitis and are commonly associated with incomplete root formation. The correct diagnosis in these cases requires a combination of clinical examinations, pulp sensitivity tests, and radiographic examinations. The treatment plan may vary from a simple conservative sealing of the invagination to extraction of the involved tooth, depending on the extent of the tooth involvement and severity of the condition. This article reports a case of type II bilateral invagination of two maxillary lateral incisors, the maxillary left lateral incisor with necrotic pulp associated with a large periapical lesion and the maxillary right lateral incisor with reversible pulpitis. Each tooth was successfully treated with different non-surgical methods based on the extent of its involvement. At the follow-ups, the patient was asymptomatic with no signs or symptoms of inflammation, and the two-year follow-up showed significant healing of both teeth, validating the success of the treatment. The results of this case emphasize the effectiveness of non-surgical treatment methods when applied appropriately, as well as the importance of early detection in the successful management of teeth with DI.
