Zirconia Based Fixed Dental Prostheses

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Zirconia Based Fixed Dental Prostheses

• Registration Number: NCT02220764
• Lead Sponsor: Technische Universität Dresden

Brief Summary

The objective of this prospective clinical study is to investigate the differences in the complication rates between tooth- and implant- supported zirconia based fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) with at least 4 units. The null-hypothesis is that there is no difference in the complication rates between implant- supported and tooth- supported zirconia FDPs.

Detailed Description

The study aims to provide evidence regarding the clinical behaviour of long-span tooth- and implant-supported FDPs.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Number of Fixed Dental Prostheses (FDPs) With Failure	3 years	"Failure" was recorded if there was a need to remove the Fixed Dental Prosthesis over the observation period.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Number of Fixed Dental Prostheses (FDPs) With Chip/s	3 years	Measurement of the amount of fractures of the veneering material 6,12,18,24,30 and 36 months after placement of the restorations. The percentage of chips for the implant- and tooth- supported restorations will be reported.
