Can the use of silver nanoparticles in dental implants increase its antimicrobial potency? - systematic review.
Synthesis in BMC oral health, 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
backgroundSilver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is a promising nanotechnological solution to prevent microbial colonization on dental implants, offering a promising avenue for combating implant-related infections and improving long-term treatment outcomes.
methodsUsing manual search and electronic databases such as PubMed Advanced Search and Google Scholar, a methodical search was carried out from 2013 to 2023 utilizing keywords, and inclusion and exclusion criteria to find pertinent papers addressing the research question "Can the use of silver nanoparticles in dental implants increase its antimicrobial potency?". Critical Appraisal analysis for this review was done using risk of bias tool for in vitro studies: QUIN tool.
resultsNine of the 122 articles that were retrieved underwent the three-step screening process before being chosen for the final analysis. QUIN Tool were used to evaluate the quality of the included in vitro studies. The summarized results from nine studies reveal the efficacy of AgNPs in inhibiting microorganisms and preventing biofilm formation on dental implants. In vitro tests demonstrate AgNPs' ability to hinder bacterial growth associated with peri-implantitis. Various techniques, including surface modifications and nanostructure incorporations, exhibit promising antibacterial effects.
conclusionsAgNPs show promise in inhibiting multidrug-resistant bacteria, enhancing dental implant biocompatibility, and reducing peri-implant diseases, benefiting clinical outcomes and limiting bacterial colonization.
