Implant Treatment After Traumatic Tooth Loss: A Retrospective Cohort Study of Survival, Esthetic, and Patient-Reported Outcome.
Article in Clinical and experimental dental research, 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
objectiveEvidence on biological, technical, and esthetic outcomes following dental implant treatment in the anterior maxilla after traumatic tooth loss is limited. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the survival, esthetic, and patient-reported outcome measures of implant treatment in the anterior maxilla after up to 9 years of functional loading. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study was conducted at Copenhagen University Hospital, Denmark. Patients who underwent implant treatment for anterior maxillary tooth loss due to trauma between 2007 and 2019, with at least 1 year of functional loading, were recalled for clinical and radiographic follow-up.
resultsIn total, 56 implants in 49 patients were included. The mean follow-up period was 4.2 years (range 1-9.5 years). Implant and superstructure survival rates were 100%. Between baseline and the latest follow-up, there was no statistically significant change in radiographic crestal bone level, but a statistically significant improvement in papilla index. Although not significant, soft tissue texture appeared to improve, while slight soft tissue discoloration was observed in most patients, but remained unchanged from baseline to follow-up. Crown esthetics generally declined from baseline to follow-up, although not significantly. Correlation analysis indicated an association between esthetic outcomes and several variables, such as age, gender, number of lost teeth, type of bone defect, and complications before loading. In total, 14% of implants exhibited crown infraposition at follow-up. No predictive factors for crown infraposition could be identified. Patient-reported outcome measures generally revealed satisfaction with the treatment results.
conclusionsThe present study found that the biological, technical, and esthetic outcomes of dental implant treatment in the anterior maxilla following traumatic tooth loss are, in general, stable and satisfactory to both clinician and patient. To achieve optimal results in these complex cases, interdisciplinary treatment planning is essential.
