Prosthodontic Management of Complete Anodontia with Retained Deciduous Teeth.

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
Congenital absence of permanent teeth, or anodontia, is a rare developmental anomaly, and isolated anodontia with retained deciduous teeth is even more uncommon. This report describes the prosthodontic management of a 16-year-old female diagnosed with nonsyndromic familial anodontia who presented with retained primary teeth and complete absence of permanent tooth buds. A fixed interim prosthesis was planned to restore oral function, improve facial esthetics, and support psychosocial well-being. Full-mouth impressions were made, and a heat-cure acrylic resin prosthesis was fabricated, using the remaining deciduous teeth as abutments for retention. Standard prosthodontic procedures-including diagnostic mounting, facebow transfer, centric relation recording, and final impressions-were followed to ensure optimal fit and function. The patient exhibited excellent adaptation to the prosthesis, with noticeable improvement in mastication, speech, and facial appearance. Significant psychological benefits were also observed, including enhanced social interaction and increased self-confidence. Follow-up evaluations revealed no major complications, and the prosthesis remained stable and functional. This case highlights that fixed interim prostheses offer an effective, minimally invasive solution for adolescents with anodontia, providing functional, esthetic, and psychological benefits until they reach skeletal maturity and become candidates for definitive long-term rehabilitation.
