About this study

The use of complete removable dental prostheses (CRDP) is a reliable and effective treatment option for the rehabilitation of edentulous persons.

In recent years, the use of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) methods has become more popular for the fabrication of CRDPs, including subtractive methods (milling) from a prefabricated resin puck. They present various advantages compared to conventional fabrication methods, namely improved mechanical properties, superior surface characteristics, shortened manufacturing time and lower cost for the patient.

However, one of the shortcomings in the manufacturing of CRDPs from a single block of resin is obtaining an adequate esthetic outcome, as the transition between the gingiva-colored (pink) and tooth-colored (white) resin is not as precise as with prefabricated prosthetic teeth which are incorporated into a denture base. A novel technology has recently been launched on the market and includes a new design of distribution of pink and white resin inside a prefabricated resin puck, which would allow a superior esthetic outcome than previous techniques.

The aim of this pilot study is to assess the end result of one of the available systems used for fabricating digital dentures (Ivoclar® Digital Denture®), while using the corresponding monolithic resin puck (Ivoclar® Ivotion Denture System®), and therefore determining whether this new technique is an adequate option for treating edentulous patients.

    Measured: Baseline (BL, with existing dentures)

  5. Denture satisfaction

    Denture Satisfaction Index: validated questionnaire with 24 questions related to 9 dimensions, by means of a Visual Analogue Scale Maximum (best outcome): 900 Minimum (worst outcome): 0

    Measured: Day 0 (T0, new dentures)

  6. Denture satisfaction

    Denture Satisfaction Index: validated questionnaire with 24 questions related to 9 dimensions, by means of a Visual Analogue Scale Maximum (best outcome): 900 Minimum (worst outcome): 0

    Measured: 3 months (T1)

  7. Masticatory analysis

    Chewing efficiency will be evaluated with a two-color mixing ability test

    Measured: Baseline (BL, with existing dentures)

  8. Masticatory analysis

    Chewing efficiency will be evaluated with a two-color mixing ability test

    Measured: Day 0 (T0, new dentures)

  9. Masticatory analysis

  10. Prosthetic Evaluation

    Denture quality objectively based on the seven criteria adopted from Alfadda et al., 2014, using a scoring sheet with 16 questions, by means of a 3-item Likert scale Maximum (worst score): 48 Minimum (best score): 16

    Measured: Day 0 (T0, new dentures)

  11. Prosthetic Evaluation

    Denture quality objectively based on the seven criteria adopted from Alfadda et al., 2014, using a scoring sheet with 16 questions, by means of a 3-item Likert scale Maximum (worst score): 48 Minimum (best score): 16

    Measured: 3 months (T1)

  12. Number of prosthetic maintenance needed

    events such as adjustment and repair requirements will be recorded

    Measured: 3 months (T1)

  13. Willingness to Pay

    open-ended contingency valuation (CV) method of questioning with the use of a payment card. The score is the amount in Swiss Francs the participant would be willing to pay for the treatment.

    Maximum: no maximum Minimum: 0.

    Measured: 3 months (T1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ivoclar Ivotion Denture System in people with Complete Edentulism, run by Frauke Müller at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 3 inclusion and 14 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2024. 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 Switzerland. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Esthetics (time frame: Baseline (BL, with existing dentures)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Dec 2024.
