Not Applicable
Conditions
Wear of the Natural Enamel
Interventions
Other: zirconia reinforced lithium silicate glass ceramic
Registration Number
NCT03697018
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

evaluation of wear behavior and patient satisfaction of monolithic zirconia and zirconia reinforced glass crowns after follow-up periods 0,3,6,12 months.

Detailed Description

two groups of patients will be selected according to special inclusion criteria n=13 in each group total of 26. each group will receive one of the crowns used in this study either ( monolithic zirconia or zirconia reinforced lithium silicate glass) after crown delivery wear and patient satisfaction will be recorded at 0,3,6,12 moths follow-up periods.

monolithic zirconiazirconia reinforced lithium silicate glass ceramicZirconia or zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) is a highly attractive ceramic material in prosthodontics due to its excellent mechanical properties. It is widely used to build prosthetic devices.
zirconia reinforced lithium silicate glass ceramiczirconia reinforced lithium silicate glass ceramicIt represent a new generation of glass ceramic material, enriched with zirconia (10% by weight), the material offers natural esthetics with successful outcome.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
wear of the antagonist natural enamelfrom baseline till one year

loss of opposing tooth structure which will be measured by 3D Profilometer

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
patient satisfactionfrom baseline till one year

visual analogue scale (VAS): scale range from 0-10 for describing the intensity of pain the patient suffering. 0: no pain, 5: moderate pain, 10: unbearable pain.
