About this study

Official title: Long-term Performance and Longevity of Minimally Invasive CAD/CAM Versus Conventional Anterior Veneer Restorations: a Randomized Controlled Trial Over 5 Years.

The aim of the study is to clinically evaluate tooth-supported veneer restorations fabricated using the CAD/CAM process in comparison to conventionally manufactured pressed veneers on anterior teeth and to assess their long-term performance. Survival and success rates of anterior veneer restorations, as well as patient satisfaction, will be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

Functional and aesthetic complaints caused by congenital malformations and acquired tooth damage are widely spread. Discomfort involves reduced chewing ability, phonetic problems, hypersensitivity and aesthetic impairments.

Conventionally fabricated all-ceramic veneer restorations reveal a long history of clinical success in minimally invasive rehabilitation of the anterior dentition. Nevertheless, conventional manufacturing techniques are prone to fabrication mistakes and must be handled by experienced dental technicians and dentists which results in very high fabrication costs. Therefore, access to minimally invasive restorations is currently restricted for most of the patients. Innovative CAD/CAM techniques have revolutionised restorative treatment options over the last decades and have made all-ceramic restorations more affordable for patients. With further improvements of the CAD/CAM milling devices the machinability of high-strength glass ceramic is now possible.

The aim of both treatment procedures will be to avoid any extensive additional tooth structure removal, to provide long-term survival and success of the integrated restorations and to improve patient´s satisfaction. Up to now scientific evidence on the clinical performance of CAD/CAM fabricated veneers is very limited. Aim of this trial is to evaluate if the clinical performance of anterior restorations after minimally invasive therapeutic intervention with CAD/CAM veneers compared to conventionally fabricated veneers. Functional and aesthetic treatment results will be assessed for five years and evaluated with regard to failure and succes veneer restorations as well as patient satisfaction.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prosthetic survival time

    The primary objective is to compare the prosthetic survival time of the restorations (conventional vs. CAD/CAM veneers).

    Measured: 5 Years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Prosthetic success

    The secondary objectives are to compare the prosthetic success of the restorations (conventional vs. CAD/CAM veneers), the documentation of failures such as fractures and the assessment of patient centered satisfaction.

    Measured: 5 Years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laminate veneer CAD/CAM and Laminate Veneer Convetional in people with Malformed Tooth, run by Heinrich-Heine University, Duesseldorf.

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 2 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2025. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Prosthetic survival time (time frame: 5 Years). 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 14 May 2025.
