Biomineralization of dental tissues with natural drugs: a comprehensive review.
Review in The Saudi dental journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This narrative review systematically examines the emerging role of natural bioactive substances in dental tissue biomineralization. Through comprehensive analysis of peer-reviewed literature (2000-2024) identified via PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus using keywords including 'natural drugs,' 'biomineralization,' and 'dental restoration,' we evaluate three key aspects: (1) the limitations of current restorative materials (composite resins, adhesives); (2) the mechanisms of natural compounds (collagen protection, mineral deposition, demineralization inhibition); and (3) clinical translation challenges. Our analysis reveals that plant-derived flavonoids, polyphenols, and bioactive peptides show particular promise for enhancing remineralization while addressing toxicity concerns. The review concludes by proposing a research framework for developing next-generation bioactive restorative materials, highlighting knowledge gaps in long-term stability and standardized protocols.
