About this study

Official title: Assessment of Accuracy of Full Digital Workflow in Fabrication of Four-Implant Screw-Retained Mandibular Hybrid Prostheses

The goal of this clinical trial study is to evaluate the accuracy of the full digital workflow for four-implant, screw-retained mandibular hybrid prostheses in patients with completely edentulous mandible.

Read the detailed description

The main issues to evaluate are:

  • The trueness of full arch digital scans when additional geometric scanning aids are coupled with the scan bodies.
  • The trueness of the generated 3D-printed DIMs.

Participants will provide two types of impressions to compare after osteointegration; the first will be conventional open tray impression used as a gold standard comparator, the second will be digital scans with additional geometric scanning aids coupled with the scan bodies.

Accordingly generated 3D-printed DIMs will be printed and compared to the digital image to evaluate its accuracy.

Being tested
conventional impression stone casts digitization, digital scanning with coupled scanning aiding device, Digital Implant Model assessment of accuracy
Keywords
Intraoral scanning, Digital implant models, Edentulous mandible, Screw retained prosthesis, Geometric scanning aids

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • conventional impression stone casts digitizationDevice

    Nine conventional physical open tray impressions will be poured into a hard dental stone to obtain nine definitive implant casts with conventional implant analogs to act as a reference comparator.

    Impressions will be digitized to reference STL files.

  • digital scanning with coupled scanning aiding deviceDevice

    Nine optical impressions will be obtained while additional geometric scanning aids are coupled with the scan bodies to get nine CAD/CAM 3D-printed polymer casts with digital implant analogs.

  • Digital Implant Model assessment of accuracyDevice

    The nine STL files of optical scanning will serve as reference data for comparison with the digitized DIMs to evaluate the accuracy of representation of the actual position of implants in the software.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Trueness of full arch digital scans when additional geometric scanning aids are coupled with the scan bodies.

    The optical impressions will be obtained by an intraoral scanner while the scan abutments are coupled with 3D geometric scanning aids and seated in positions.

    special digital software will be used to compare the trueness of virtual implant positions in the obtained digital scan STL files to the digitized reference positions in the patients' digitized conventional stone model

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Trueness of the generated 3D-printed digital implant models.

    Based on the obtained optical scans, CAD software will be used to produce CAM files of definitive implant casts, the polymer casts will be printed and the digital implant analogs will be installed in their corresponding positions in the printed DIMs.

    The digitized data of the DIMs will be compared to their corresponding reference STL files of optical scans to check the accuracy of the generated digital implant models.

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing conventional impression stone casts digitization, digital scanning with coupled scanning aiding device and Digital Implant Model assessment of accuracy in people with Denture and Complete Edentulism, run by Ain Shams University.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 6 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Trueness of full arch digital scans when additional geometric scanning aids are coupled with the scan bodies. (time frame: 2 months). 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 6 Mar 2024.
