A systematic review assessing the osseoincorporation potential of trabecular dental implants: A current evidence and future directions.
Synthesis in Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 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
statement of problemThere is lack of evidence of studies conducted to compare the integration of soft and hard tissues of conventional implants and porous tantalum trabecular metal (PTTM dental implants). PURPOSE: This systematic review assessed the clinical outcomes evaluating the hard and soft-tissue parameters for PTTM dental implants when compared with conventional titanium dental implants. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review based on PRISMA 2020 checklist was used as guideline for reporting this protocol. The search was conducted in SCOPUS, PUBMED, Cochrane library, and EMBASE databases for the studies published from January 1, 2010, to January 1, 2023. The chosen publications' cross-references were further examined, and studies whose whole texts were not available through the computerized search were manually looked up.
resultsThrough search strategy a total of 1152 articles were yielded. After screening titles and abstracts, 9 articles were further screened for full text. After critical analysis, according to the eligibility criteria of this review, 7 articles were included in this systematic review for data extraction. Four studies revealed mean of 98.8% survival rate for trabecular implants. Histologically, 2 studies showed upregulation of bone morphogenic proteins, collagens, and growth factors with respect to trabecular dental implants.
conclusionFrom this study, it can be concluded that PTTM dental implants showed a better osseoincorporation potential than titanium implants. However, a longer follow-up period is required to assess its true potential.
