Clinical Assessment of Two Inlay -Retained Bridge Designs

Not Applicable
Conditions
Tooth Fractures
Interventions
Other: proximal box inlay retained bridge
Registration Number
NCT03224273
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

in the last years, dentistry is going to the concept of conservatism to preserve the most amount of tooth structure, so the evolution of new ceramic materials with invasive designs like (inlay- shaped and proximal box shaped) inlay retained bridge, the investigators can restore single missing posterior teeth with less invasive techniques and less rate of restoration fracture.

Detailed Description

It has been demonstrated that a great amount of tooth structure is lost during the prosthetic preparations of abutments for full-coverage FDPs with tooth substance removal of 63% of 73%, this aggressive loss of tooth structure usually accompanied with pain and postoperative sensitivity. In comparison With the inlay-retained bridge, there is less amount of tooth substance loss. this clinical study will provide benefits for practitioners and clinicians by guiding them to choose a more conservative treatment plan with the better marginal fit, clinical performance and satisfaction for the patients on the long term. rather than other benefits like less chair time, less risk for pulp injury, less time and cost
