A Rare Case of Bilateral Mesiodens With Dens Invaginatus Obstructing Permanent Incisor Eruption.

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 co-occurrence of mesiodens and dens invaginatus (DI) is very uncommon. Such anomalies may impede the eruption of permanent maxillary central incisors and can appear radiographically similar to normally developing teeth. An 11-year-old girl presented with failure of eruption of the permanent maxillary central incisors. Panoramic radiography and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) revealed two palatobuccally positioned supernumerary mesiodens, both of which exhibited DI. Surgical extraction of the mesiodens was performed, and guided bone regeneration (GBR) was carried out to preserve the alveolar ridge and optimize conditions for subsequent eruption and orthodontic treatment. At the time of reporting, the permanent incisors remain unerupted. Delay in intervention led to loss of mesiodistal space as adjacent teeth drifted. Advanced orthodontic treatment, including distalization, is currently in progress. This case underscores that prompt diagnosis using CBCT and a coordinated multidisciplinary approach is crucial for managing complex dental anomalies and ensuring favorable outcomes.
