About this study

Functional rehabilitation and quality of life after maxillofacial surgery have been emphasized in recent years. It depends mainly on outcomes of maxillofacial reconstruction and rehabilitation involving functions, esthetics, psychology acceptance and resocialization.

Tooth loss, alveolar and maxillary bone resorption or changes of the hard palate cause facial asymmetry in patient with maxillofacial surgery. The facial soft tissue over the defect become recessed as a result of loss of lip and buccal support which lead to decrease the quality of life and psychological disorders. Prosthetic intervention with maxillary obturator prosthesis is necessary to restore the contours of the resected palate and to recreate the functional separation of the oral cavity and sinus and nasal cavities. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of maxillary obturator on facial morphology in patient with unilateral maxillary defect by using 3 dimensional digital stereophotogrammetry compared to the intact side of the same patient

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Prosthetic intervention with maxillary obturator prosthesis in people with Facial Asymmetry, run by Cairo University 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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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 Hoor Nafae (00201006268582, Hoor.mahmoud@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Facial morphology (time frame: after 6 months of maxillofacial surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Apr 2022.
