Assessing the Impact of Vegan Toothpastes on Enamel Color Change and Surface Properties.
Article in Journal of esthetic and restorative dentistry : official publication of the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry ... [et al.], 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

conclusionsVegan toothpastes did not cause hardness loss or deleterious effects on enamel mineral content or morphology. However, they exhibited no whitening effect and increased enamel roughness. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Toothpastes indicated for vegan individuals are available, but there is little evidence to support their use, in contrast to their widespread marketing. Although vegan toothpastes did not change enamel microhardness nor promote adverse effects on enamel morphology, none of the toothpastes tested were able to exhibit a potential whitening effect.
