Efficacy of Air Powder Water-Jet Devices in Cleaning Implant Surfaces in a Non-Surgical Peri-Implantitis Treatment Simulation-A Laboratory Study.
Article in Clinical oral implants research, 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
objectiveTo evaluate the impact of implant surface and instrumentation time on the efficacy of two air powder water-jet (APWJ) devices in cleaning the implant surface in a simulation of non-surgical peri-implantitis treatment. MATERIALS AND
methodsTurned and modified surface implants (28 each) were coated with a biofilm imitation and mounted on resin models replicating peri-implant intra-osseous defects, including a soft tissue replica. The entire implant periphery was instrumented for 5 or 15s per implant sextant (i.e., in total 30 or 90s per implant), with one of two different APWJ devices using either a glycine or an erythritol powder. Residual biofilm imitation was automatically assessed on standardized photographs and expressed as percentage of the exposed implant surface.
resultsImplant surface (ε
conclusionIn a non-surgical peri-implantitis treatment simulation with APWJ devices, superior biofilm imitation removal was achieved at turned implants, and a longer instrumentation time resulted in less residual biofilm imitation. Modified implants had high chances of incomplete biofilm imitation removal, especially at the apical part of the defect. Complete biofilm imitation removal was in general largely unpredictable.
