Metal-Free Dental Implants: A Narrative Review of Zirconia and Emerging Alternative Materials.
Review in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 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
This narrative review explores the current landscape of metal-free dental implants, emphasizing zirconia as the leading material and examining alternative options. The review discusses the biological, mechanical, and esthetic properties of zirconia implants, along with recent advances in material science exploring polymer-based and ceramic alternatives. Clinical outcomes, osseointegration potential, and limitations are also reviewed, highlighting future directions for biocompatible, esthetically superior implant solutions.
