Filter by:This clinical trial aims to compare the performance of CAD/CAM-milled and 3D-printed full-arch implant-supported provisional restorations in patients at the Advanced Implant Prosthetics Clinic of the Complutense University of Madrid, of both sexes, over 18 years of age, edentulous upper, lower or both, whose treatment plan is at least a fixed implant-supported rehabilitation of the complete arch. The main question it aims to answer is if there are differences in the mechanical behavior and optical properties of the materials used as provisional materials in full-arch restorations on implants fabricated by CAD/CAM technology through machining or 3D printing. Participants will: - Receive milled (control material: PMMA; Multilayer PMMA block, HUGE; Shandong Huge Dental Material Corporation) or printed (test material: 3D impression resin; VarseoSmile Temp, Bego Bremer Goldschägerei Wilh. Herbst GmbH & Co. KG, Bremen) and they will be in provisional phase for 3 months doing daily life. Researchers will compare PMMA (Multilayer PMMA block, HUGE; Shandong Huge Dental Material Corporation) and the printed-resin (3D impression resin; VarseoSmile Temp, Bego Bremer Goldschägerei Wilh. Herbst GmbH & Co. KG, Bremen) to see: - Mechanical behavior and the absence of complications, fracture of the structure, material jumping or wear, loosening, or detachment. - Optical properties, initial color, and degradation of the materials used
The aim of this study was to describe a novel digital technique to analyze the wear of screw-retained implant-supported metal-ceramic dental prostheses and natural tooth as antagonist. Materials and methods: Ten patients were consecutively included to rehabilitate partial edentulism by dental implants. Both the screw-retained implant-supported metal-ceramic dental prostheses and the natural tooth as antagonist were submitted to a digital impression through an intraoral scan to generate a Standard Tessellation Language digital file preoperatively (STL1), at 3 months (STL2), and 6 months (STL3) follow-up. Afterwards, an alignment procedure of the digital files (STL1-STL3) was performed on a reverse engineering morphometric software and volume changes at the screw-retained implant-supported metal-ceramic dental prostheses and the natural tooth as antagonist were analyzed using Student's t-test. Moreover, Gage R&R statistical analysis was conducted to analyze the repeatability and reproducibility of the digital technique.
Sarcopenia and malnutrition are closely involved in frailty. To prevent them, it is essential to assess oral function. "Oral fragility" manifests with specific signs or symptoms, including occlusion loss due to tooth loss and chewing difficulty. To recover from it, restoring function by placing a dental prosthesis in the event of tooth loss is essential. In Chile, many patients referred to secondary care to perform new prosthetic treatment live in conditions of less oral functionality and enter waiting lists that can take years, impacting general functionality. Falls are a public health problem with a high economic cost, the second cause of death worldwide. One of the causes is sarcopenia, and it has been studied that the decrease in the number of teeth and the occlusal posterior support region may be risk factors for decreased gait speed, an objective measurement of fall risk. It has been studied that the decrease in the number of teeth causes a reduction in total muscle mass, walking speed and lower quality of life. General objective: To evaluate the impact on the general functionality of applying an immediate prosthetic functionalization protocol in patients with deficient removable prostheses, compared with conventional treatment, at the secondary level of the health system, in patients over 70 years of age. Methodology: randomized, double-blind clinical trial with two groups of 62 patients each: experimental and control. The intervention will consist of recovering prosthetic function in one session before conventional rehabilitation vs the control group receiving conventional rehabilitation. Measurements will include manual grip strength measurements made with a Jamar dynamometer, timed up-and-go test, before and after prosthetic treatments and quality of life related to oral health through Ohip 7sp. Descriptive statistics will be applied through the registration of frequency and contingency tables. To compare hand grip strength, Pearson's Correlation will be used; for risk of pre and post-fall, the t-test will be applied for two related samples; for quality of life before and after the intervention, Chi2 will be used; changes in grip strength, fall risk and quality of life, between the different groups according to the Eichner index, one-way ANOVA will be applied, for related samples.
This is a prospective observational clinical trial to evaluate the clinical performance of the Cerec Tessera prosthetic assembly on implants restored with chairside CAD/CAM-generated crowns. This investigation is intended as a Post Market Clinical Follow-up study for the product Cerec Tessera and its prosthetic assembly for implants, which will serve as a life-cycle approach to safety, backed up by clinical data and post-market monitoring.
This retrospective study investigates the longevity of dentures with SR Phonares II teeth after a wearing period of more than 10 years. The primary objective is to assess the survival rate of dentures with SR Phonares II teeth after more than 10 years. The secondary objectives asses the quality of the dentures concerning aesthetic, functional and biological properties.
In recent years, zirconia-based implant-supported bridge designs have begun to be used more and more as an alternative to metal ceramic bridges. Another new material that has been introduced in the clinic is the high translucent monolithic zirconia, which has only been investigated a few follow-up studies with short follow up duration. The aim being to evaluate the clinical outcome of implant-anchored posterior bridges, made from 1. high-translucent monolithic zirconia, 2. zirconia ceramic with porcelain and 3. metal ceramics. The hypothesis is that high-translucent monolithic zirconia has lower rate of complications since surface porcelain veneering is not required. A total of 60 research subjects will be included in the study. Patients in need of a permanent implant-supported bridge, located posterior of the canine in the upper or lower jaw will be asked for participation. Each subject will be treated according to standard treatment protocols with implants from Nobel Biocare, the Branemark implant system and then be randomly assigned to obtain one of the following three type of bridges. 20 research subjects will be included in each of the three study arms. The prosthetic treatment will be carried out according to standard clinic protocol. All research subjects will be evaluated after 1, 3, 5 years. X-rays and photos will be taken at the installation of the bridges and after 1 and 5 years of follow-up or more frequent, depending on individual indication of the patient and the associated standard clinical care protocol. Personal data, implant survival, marginal bone loss and biological and technical complications related to the implants will be recorded. Survival of the bridge, technical and biological complication related to the bridge will also be recorded
To assess the influence that the complications of implant treatment have on the patient's perception and satisfaction on treatment.
Tooth loss is a major dental problem worldwide. A recent study in Singapore found that approximately one third of adults aged over 65 are living without any natural teeth. Prevalence of loss of some teeth, or partial edentulism, in this population is estimated to be even higher. Tooth loss has a series of deleterious consequences for oral and general health. The high prevalence of tooth loss has resulted in great needs and demands of prosthetic replacements, posing challenges to the public dental care system in Singapore. Removable dentures are the most widely and commonly used device to replace missing teeth and restore oral functions. The removable denture possesses a metal framework that connects other components of the denture, to ensure rigidity and stability while in function. However, the current method of fabricating denture frameworks is a complex, error-prone, time-consuming, and expensive process. Due to the inherent inaccuracies in the materials and technique, fit of the framework is compromised and undesirable to meet patients' satisfaction. With the new development of computer aided design and 3D printing metal techniques, it is now possible to apply digital design and manufacturing for the fabrication of dentures. This proposal aims to compare the precision and fit, and patient satisfaction, of 3D printed and conventional casted removable denture frameworks in preclinical and clinical settings.
This is a randomized, prospective clinical trial. The aim of the project is to assess the clinical performance of three types of tooth-supported crowns; monolithic high translucent colored zirconia, crowns of high-translucent colored zirconia with a mini-veneer buccally and crowns of lithium-disilicate glass-ceramic. Crowns will be placed on posterior teeth and evaluated from an esthetic and functional point of view, to identify if there are any differences between the materials.
When the tooth is severely compromised, it needs a prosthetic crown. The tooth is prepared to allow the housing of the prosthetic crown without difficulty. This study aims to compare two different types of preparations to see with which of the two the gingival tissue reacts best.
