Bilateral Non-Syndromic Supplemental Mandibular Incisors: Report on a Rare Clinical Case.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundSupplemental teeth are a rare subtype of supernumerary elements that closely resemble the morphology of normal dentition. Their occurrence in the mandibular anterior region is extremely uncommon.
aimTo describe the clinical features, diagnosis, and phased orthodontic management of a rare case involving bilateral supplemental mandibular incisors in a pediatric patient. CASE REPORT: A 7-year-old female patient presented with early mixed dentition and significant lower anterior crowding due to the presence of two fully erupted supplemental mandibular incisors. Treatment phase I included extraction of the malpositioned supplemental teeth and rapid maxillary expansion to transversally coordinate the arches. By the end of phase I, spontaneous alignment of the remaining lower incisors was observed. DISCUSSION: The presence of two supplemental mandibular incisors is extremely rare in Caucasian populations. Supernumerary teeth can cause crowding, impaction, or delayed eruption of adjacent permanent teeth. Timely extraction can prevent such complications and often allows spontaneous alignment.
conclusionsThe prompt removal of supplemental mandibular incisors, when they have just erupted, might lead to the alignment of the other incisors, considering that they spontaneously occupy the extractive spaces often without the aid of fixed appliances first line.
