Aesthetics and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Periodontology and Implant Dentistry: Consensus Report.
Article in Journal of clinical periodontology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundAesthetics and patient-reported experiences (PREs) and outcomes (PROs) influence treatment choices, but have been largely overlooked in periodontology and implant dentistry. This consensus conference evaluated these factors by focusing on gingival recession defects (GRDs), immediate or early/delayed implant placement and peri-implant buccal soft-tissue dehiscences.
methodsThe workshop discussions were informed by five specifically commissioned systematic reviews covering PREs, PROs and clinician-reported outcomes (CROs), including effectiveness, aesthetics and other concerns.
resultsFollowing treatments such as coronally advanced flaps (CAFs) with a connective tissue graft (CTG) for root coverage (RC), a positive correlation was noted between clinician-reported aesthetic scores and RC measures for GRDs. However, a corresponding correlation for patient-reported aesthetic perceptions was not evident. In dental implant procedures, the addition of a CTG immediately after implant placement significantly mitigated the apical shift in the mid-facial mucosal level. However, clinician- and patient-reported aesthetic scores were not reflective of these changes. Neither set of scores captured the impact of grafting on improving peri-implant soft-tissue volume. In the treatment of peri-implant dehiscences, soft-tissue augmentation (STA), using CTG beneath CAF, resulted in favourable outcomes in clinician- and patient-perceived aesthetics.
conclusionsClinician and patient views provide complementary perspectives for evidence-based clinical decision making. They need to be integrated into select interventions. Specific trials are needed encompassing PREs, PROs and CROs and reporting benefits and harms.
