Full-Mouth Rehabilitation of a Patient With Generalized Enamel Hypoplasia and an Anterior Open Bite Using a Physiologic Approach: A Case Report.
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
Enamel hypoplasia is a developmental defect characterized by quantitative enamel deficiency, often leading to esthetic compromise, hypersensitivity, occlusal disharmony, and loss of vertical dimension. Rehabilitation of such patients is clinically demanding, particularly when associated with an anterior open bite. This case report describes the prosthodontic management of a 44-year-old male patient with generalized enamel hypoplasia and an anterior open bite through systematic full-mouth rehabilitation. A physiologic approach using the swallowing method was employed to determine the vertical dimension of occlusion, followed by staged rehabilitation with porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations. The treatment resulted in improved function, esthetics, and occlusal stability with satisfactory patient acceptance. This report emphasizes the importance of physiologic vertical dimension determination and structured prosthodontic planning in complex rehabilitative cases.
