Active clinical trials for "Mouth, Edentulous"

The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of sloped dental implants. It can reduce the need of osteoectomy, reduce discomfort of procedures, and is easier for maintenance.

this study was conducted to clarify the effect of two different attachments on patient satisfaction and marginal bone loss. The primary and secondary objectives are to determine patient satisfaction and the marginal bone loss around implant when using CM LOC compared to conventional ball attachment. all the patients will receive a single median implant to which the denture will be loaded upon using the two different attachment systems

The purpose of this study is to investigate to what extent IOs improve the functionality of edentulous patients and changes in quality of life and overall patient satisfaction following treatment with IOs.

The aim of this pilot study was to assess survival rates and peri-implant bone loss of two narrow-diameter titanium-zirconium implants supporting maxillary and mandibular overdentures during an observation time of 3 years. The masticatory performance, self-reported chewing ability and change of oral health impact profile (OHIP) after rehabilitation were also investigated.

On of the main fixed prosthetic options of completely edentulous patients is the screw-retained implant supported prosthesis which was constructed on transmucosal abutments with its encountered problems such as: hardness to make it passively seated with multiple screw fracture and loosening problems and multiple encountered veneer material fracture and so there effect on patient satisfaction with multiple maintenance recalls.so, the investigators want to try a new technique of fabrication which was proposed for reducing the problems of lack of passivity which is the intraoral luting cement technique on titanium bases with reduced screw number but, with luting cement problems as de-cementation and cement biological effects on soft tissues and bone and there effect on number of patient recall visits and maintenance and so there effect on patient satisfaction

The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and usefulness of the Regenecure guided bone regeneration membrane for stimulating bone growth in patients that don't have enough bone for dental implant placement. The study will include 16 patients in each group, 20 non-smokers and 12 smokers, a total of 32 patients will participate in the study.

evaluation of color difference between zirconia reinforced lithium silicate (celtra press) VS lithium disilicate (Emax) in relation to natural tooth structure to determine which monolithic material will provide restoration with exact shade and optical properties as natural tooth structure.

The use of implants has significantly increased prosthetic options for edentulous patient. However, implant placement in the Posterior mandibular region is often hampered significantly by insufficient atrophic width limitations

In six consecutive patients planned to receive combined orthodontic-orthognathic surgery natural tooth color on 8 incisors was measured before initiation of the combined treatment (Time Point 1- baseline) and after its completion (Time Point 2- after intervention). The statistical interpretation of the results showed that tooth color change in the surgical group was higher in comparison to control groups. Control group I included non treatment subjects, while control group II included standard orthodontic treatment subjects. The results indicated that orthognathic surgery may affect natural tooth color but to small degree, as the color differences were just bellow the threshold value of 3.7 ΔΕ units. Under this value a color change cannot be easily detected by a human eye.

CAD/CAM (computer aided design/ computer aided manufacturing) constructed screw retained implant supported frameworks give solutions for the problems arising from the lost wax technique by improving accuracy, adaptation and passive fit of the final restoration. However, concerns about the passive fit of a pre-implant insertion CAD/CAM constructed framework still exists due to the expected errors in imaging, registration, surgical guide construction, adaptation and hence transferring the planned position intra-orally.
