Effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride in managing hypersensitivity of molar-incisor hypomineralization affected molars: a scoping review.
Article in Restorative dentistry & endodontics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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
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 study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of dentinal hypersensitivity treatment with silver diamine fluoride (SDF) in molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH)-affected molars. This scoping review was designed and structured according to the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and its extension for scoping reviews. A search strategy was conducted across PubMed, The Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar to identify articles related to the topic. Two authors screened titles, abstracts, and full texts for review. Five studies met the eligibility criteria, comprising four randomized controlled trials and one case report, with sample sizes ranging from four to 200 participants. All included studies reported improvements in clinical outcomes, including reduced hypersensitivity following SDF application, as indicated by lower Schiff cold air sensitivity scale scores. SDF is a promising treatment strategy for reducing hypersensitivity in MIH-affected molars; however, further research using SDF alone is needed to evaluate its exact effectiveness.
