Unlocking miniature brilliance: micro/nanorobots for advanced dental theranostics.
Review in Journal of nanobiotechnology, 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
Oral diseases exert profound impacts on systemic health, posing substantial threats to global healthcare systems. The intricate anatomy, dynamic fluid clearance, and resilient biofilm barriers of the oral cavity collectively compromise the accessibility and efficacy of conventional therapies. Micro/nanorobots (MNRs), which perform precision tasks through active propulsion and programmable intervention, constitute an emerging paradigm for advanced dental theranostics (combined diagnosis and therapy). Over the past decade, MNRs have demonstrated particular promise in navigating confined oral anatomies, disrupting polymicrobial biofilms, and resolving inflammatory cascades. Mechanistically, MNRs promote oral tissue protection and regeneration through enhanced physical perturbation, targeted cell manipulation, and metabolic reprogramming. This review systematically evaluates the current progress of dental MNRs, and proposes translational challenges and prospects toward clinical implementation.
