Traumatic dentoalveolar injury, tooth wear, and periodontal disease in working and non-working dogs (2018-2022).

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
Introduction: Periodontal disease and tooth fracture are the main reasons for tooth extraction in dogs. The objectives of this study were to compare the prevalence of traumatic dentoalveolar injury (TDI), tooth wear, and periodontal disease in working dogs (WD) and non-working dogs (NWD). Methods: Medical records of WD and NWD presented during a 4.5-year period were reviewed to identify TDI, tooth wear, and periodontal disease in WD and NWD. Periodontal disease was evaluated only in strategic teeth (canine, maxillary fourth premolar, and mandibular first molar). TDI and tooth wear were evaluated in all teeth. Results: WD had 6.3 ± 6.4 TDI and 12.7 ± 11.5 teeth with tooth wear per dog. NWD were diagnosed with 1.3 ± 1.7 TDI, and 1.9 ± 4.9 teeth with tooth wear per dog. The risk of having a TDI was 3 times higher in WD than in NWD, and the likelihood of having tooth wear was 66% higher in WD than in NWD. WD had fewer strategic teeth with severe stages of periodontal disease than NWD. Discussion: TDI, tooth wear, and periodontal disease are frequent in WD, and the prevalence of TDI is higher than previously reported. Oral examinations should be included in routine annual evaluations in WD to accurately identify and treat traumatized teeth and periodontal disease.
