Utilization of Buccal Free Gingival Graft to Restore the Peri-Implant Soft Tissue Texture and Color Match in the Esthetic Zone: A Case Report With 3 Years Follow-Up.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This case report represents soft tissue management around a dental implant in the upper lateral incisor area in a young female with a high esthetic demand and excessive gingival display. During implant placement, a soft tissue augmentation utilizing connective tissue graft was conducted to augment the interproximal papilla around the implant. However, the coronally flap advancement resulted in mucogingival distortion and a lack of a sufficient amount of keratinized mucosa around the dental implant. In order to achieve an aesthetically acceptable color and texture match, a free gingival graft (FGG) was harvested from the buccal gingival tissue in the premolar site instead of the palatal site. In the follow-up visits, the mucosa around the implant was quite comparable to the gingiva around the adjacent teeth. It seems that the "buccal gingiva" can be considered as the first choice of donor site for FGG in the esthetic zone.
