About this study

Official title: An Innovative Approach for Auricular Rehabilitation Using Two Types Digital Impression Versus Conventional Techniques:

What is known:

Ear impressions are made in conventional manner by impression materials which may affect the accuracy of the obtained data and consume time and effort .

What this study adds:

Predesigned ear markers facilitate ear scanning using an intraoral scanner that decreases the probability of in-accuracies using the conventional manner with less time and effort

Read the detailed description

Prosthodontic maxillofacial rehabilitation of acquired or congenital ear defects is considered a challenging procedure. This clinical trial introduces a novel approach for digital scanning of the unaffected contralateral ear using an intraoral scanner in comparison to the conventional impression techniques. CAD/CAM is a very promising design and fabrication of an auricular prosthesis for patients with unilateral ear defects.

Purpose: This study aims to compare digital impression technique using an intra-oral digital scanner IOSfor the unaffected ear with markers /without markers versus traditional techniques with hydro colloidal impression materials.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing medit intra oral scanner in people with Patient Loss His Ear and Need Auricular Prosthesis, run by Mohamed Mahmoud Dohiem at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mohamed M dohiem, lecturer (01002411965, mdohiem@zu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

total deviation between Conventional auricular impression and two types of digital impression (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04893902, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 May 2021.
