Conservative Management of Subluxation Injuries in Young Permanent Teeth Using Fiber-Reinforced Composite Splints: Review and Case Reports.
Article in Cureus, 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
Subluxation of young permanent teeth poses a significant clinical challenge due to its potential impact on pulp vitality, periodontal healing, and esthetics. Luxation injuries in anterior teeth are more common in children and adolescents, often resulting from sports injuries, falls, or accidents. Management of these injuries requires accurate diagnosis, prompt repositioning, and effective stabilization. Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) splints, being flexible and esthetic, have emerged as a preferred option in anterior teeth stabilization in pediatric and adolescent patients. This case series highlights the diagnosis and management of subluxation injury in three pediatric patients aged 6-12 years, each presenting with varying forms of subluxation injury of young permanent incisors. Teeth were repositioned and stabilized with FRC splints following the International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) 2020 guidelines. Clinical and radiographic follow-ups demonstrated favourable healing outcomes with no evidence of adverse sequelae. Fiber-reinforced composite splints represent a clinically predictable, minimally invasive, and esthetic alternative to wire splints in the management of subluxation injuries of anterior teeth in adolescents. Their flexibility and stabilization efficacy align with IADT recommendations, promoting periodontal healing and patient satisfaction. Fiber-reinforced composite splints can be considered the splint of choice for managing luxation injuries in young permanent teeth, particularly in esthetically sensitive zones of adolescents, where functional and psychosocial outcomes are equally important.
