A Step-by-Step Description of Immediate Loading Provisionalization Following Computer-Guided Surgery and Provisional Printed Prosthesis Placement: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Dental implants have revolutionized the scope of oral rehabilitation in patients requiring tooth replacement. Immediate loading procedures for edentulous patients have become increasingly popular among both clinicians and patients. This report aimed to describe the installation of four flapless-placed implants through prototyped guided surgery and the immediate loading of a printed and prototyped temporary prosthesis. The report presents the digital planning and execution of a full-arch implant rehabilitation in a 49-year-old edentulous male patient with congenital tooth absence. Through the integration of cone beam CT (CBCT) imaging, intraoral scanning, and specific software, a virtual treatment plan was developed to guide implant placement. A custom three-part stackable surgical guide and a stereolithographically printed provisional prosthesis were fabricated to ensure precision. Guided implant surgery was performed under local anesthesia, with all implants achieving primary stability (>32 N·cm), allowing for immediate loading. The provisional prosthesis was relined and secured on titanium abutments. The procedure was completed efficiently within two hours and 10 minutes, demonstrating the effectiveness of a fully digital workflow in complex oral rehabilitation cases. The use of provisional prototypes and guided surgery can yield satisfactory and immediate results for these patients, bringing comfort and practicality to this dental procedure.
