Minimally Invasive Cantilever RBFPD Using a 270-Degree Veneer Abutment in a Young Cleft Patient: A Clinical Adhesive Technique.
Article in Clinical case reports, 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
Adhesive cantilever resin-bonded bridges (RBBs) are a minimally invasive option for replacing maxillary lateral incisors in young cleft patients, in whom implant placement is often delayed until completion of craniofacial growth or declined due to surgical burden. Beyond material selection, the outcome depends critically on abutment design and enamel preservation. This technique-focused case report describes a 17-year-old unilateral cleft patient treated with two lithium disilicate veneers (#11, #12) and a cantilever resin-bonded fixed partial dentures (RBFPDs) replacing #22. Tooth #21 received a 270° partial-coverage veneer preparation-facial, distal, and most palatal surfaces prepared while intentionally preserving the mesial surface-to maximize enamel bonding, avoid circumferential reduction, and optimize path of insertion and connector geometry. A digitally-assisted, mock-up validated adhesive workflow was used, with evidence-based surface treatments for enamel and lithium disilicate. Short-term review showed functional stability, esthetic integration, and healthy peri-abutment tissues. This report details the step-by-step preparation parameters, finishing lines, surface conditioning, and bonding protocol of the 270° abutment design, highlighting its value as a biologically respectful, patient-centered alternative when implants are not feasible in cleft rehabilitation.
