Correction of Single-Tooth Crossbite in Children: A Report of Three Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Single-tooth anterior dental crossbite is a commonly observed malocclusion in the mixed dentition of children. Early intervention is crucial since malocclusion does not correct itself and can contribute to enamel wear, periodontal disease, and disturbances in temporomandibular joint function. Several treatment methods have been proposed to correct it, including removable appliances and uncomplicated interceptive techniques. This case report shows three pediatric patients diagnosed with single-tooth anterior crossbite. In one case, the crossbite was successfully treated with a Hawley's appliance featuring a Z-spring and a posterior bite plane in just a few weeks. In the remaining two cases, tongue blade therapy was used as a minimally invasive treatment. In one case, crossbite correction was achieved following the performance of a diode laser-assisted frenectomy, which was necessary because a thick labial frenum was obstructing the proper alignment of the teeth.
