3D assessment of root resorption and soft tissue adaptations in surgery-first vs. early orthognathic surgery: a randomized clinical trial.
Trial report in Clinical oral investigations, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06873451 (3D Comparison Effects of Two Different Surgical Timings in Orthognathic Surgery on Root Resorption and Soft Tissues), which is not on this 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

Abstract
objectiveThis study evaluated the effects of two orthognathic surgery-timing approaches on hard and soft tissues in skeletal Class III patients undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and stereophotogrammetry.
methodsPatients undergoing non-extraction surgery were randomly assigned to either a surgery-first (SF) group (n = 12; 19.91 ± 2.60 years) or a surgery-early (SE) group (n = 12; 22.50 ± 2.90 years) for a total of 24 patients. Maxillary advancement was 3.64 ± 1.50 mm in the SF group and 3.47 ± 2.77 mm in the SE group, and mandibular setback was 2.25 ± 1.32 mm and 1.20 ± 1.75 mm, respectively. Millimetric (length, dehiscence, and fenestration), volumetric measurements, and soft tissue anthropometric assessments were collected using three-dimensional (3D) records obtained before treatment and after debonding.
resultsFollowing orthognathic surgery, a significant reduction in root length and volume measurements, and a significant increase in dehiscence were observed within the groups. Additionally, incisor teeth exhibited greater root resorption compared to other teeth. However, no significant differences were found between the groups regarding changes in hard or soft tissues.
conclusionsThese findings suggest that changes in root length, alveolar bone, and soft tissues are similar in the SF and SE approaches, indicating that these changes occur independently of the surgical timing in comparable patients. THE TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER (TRN): is NCT06873451 (Date of registration: 13.02.2025; retrospectively registered).
