1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

aimsTo evaluate the combined effect of orthodontic treatment and periodontal care on improving periodontal health and masticatory function in patients with anterior teeth displacement caused by periodontal disease.

methodsThis retrospective study involved 200 patients with anterior teeth displacement due to periodontal disease, treated between January 2022 and January 2025. Patients were divided into a control group (n=103), receiving standard periodontal treatment, and an observation group (n=97), receiving combined periodontal and orthodontic treatment. Clinical measurements, including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival bleeding index (GBI), occlusal force, and chewing efficiency, were taken before, after treatment, and during a 12-month follow-up. Paired t-tests and regression models compared the outcomes.

resultsThe observation group showed significant improvement in periodontal health compared to the control group (P>0.05). Post-treatment, CAL, GBI and PD decreased significantly (all P<0.001). Masticatory function, including occlusal force and chewing efficiency, improved significantly in the observation group (P<0.001). The overall effective rate was higher in the observation group (96.91%) compared to the control group (74.75%) (P=0.017). Additionally, pain levels, measured by visual analog scale (VAS), were lower in the observation group (P<0.001). Incidence of dental diseases, including gingival bleeding and periodontal abscess, was also significantly lower (P<0.001). Multivariate analysis identified orthodontic treatment (OR: 2.883, 95% CI: 2.183-3.799, P<0.001) as a significant contributor to clinical efficacy.

conclusionThe combination of orthodontic treatment and periodontal care significantly enhances periodontal health, masticatory function, and reduces dental complications in patients with anterior teeth displacement due to periodontal disease.
