The effect of burs wear during milling on accuracy of zirconia lithium silicate single crowns: 3-dimensional analysis.
Article 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 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
The purpose of this in-vitro study was to assess the effect of burs wear during milling on the accuracy (trueness and precision) of zirconia reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) single crowns by using 3D software when using a chair-side 4-axis machine.MethodsA typodont maxillary right canine was scanned by Primescan and Standard Tessellation Language (STL) file was created (master case STL). Two new burs were inserted into a 4-axis milling machine and 32 zirconia lithium-silicate (ZLS) crowns (group 1- crowns 1-8, group 2- crowns 9-16, group 3- crowns 17-24 and group 4- crowns 25-32) were milled until the milling machine stopped and indicated that burs must be replaced. Each one of the 32 crowns was scanned 10 times by Primescan, creating 10 STL files for each crown. Each one of the STL files was superimposed with the master case STL file by using 3-dimentional (3D) digital software. A Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was performed followed by Linear mixed models test for comparison between the four groups regarding trueness and precision.ResultsSignificant differences were found regarding both trueness and precision. For trueness, significant differences were found between the groups as group 1 exhibited higher trueness compared to groups 3 (p = 0.026) and 4 (p = 0.019), while no significant differences were found between other groups (p > 0.05). For precision, significant differences were found between the groups as group 1 exhibited significantly higher precision compared to group 2 (p = 0.005),group 3 (p = 0.005) and group 4 (p = 0.005), while no significant differences were found between other groups (p > 0.05).ConclusionsBur wear significantly affected both trueness and precision, the first group of crowns was significantly more accurate compared to the other three groups.
