Registration Number
NCT06539546
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to determine whether Yttria stabilized multilayered zirconia restorations will differ from lithium disilicate restorations in shade matching and patient satisfaction in patients requiring full coverage restorations.

Detailed Description

Steps in short: Single tooth in the esthetic zone requiring full coverage crown is prepared to receive an all-ceramic crown, The restorations will be divided into two groups: I: Teeth receiving restorations fabricated from Lithium disilicate II: Teeth receiving restorations fabricated from yttria stabilized multilayered zirconia. Shade will be measured using intraoral spectrophotometer and evaluated. The colour difference (ΔE) will be calculated for each sample using the following equation: ΔE =\[(ΔL) ²+(Δa) ² + (Δb) ²\] ½, ΔE (perceptibility threshold) will be evaluated for each group. Participant timeline the patient will be treated in visits designated as follows: Visit 1: Preoperative records, face-to-face adherence reminder session, clinical, radiographic for examination, intraoral photographs and primary impression (Alginate impression) diagnostic cast construction. Visit 2: teeth preparation and secondary impression using addition silicone rubber base material and temporary restoration. Visit 3: placement and permanent cementation of the final restoration using resin cement.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Color differenceimmediate after cementation

By Intraoral Spectrophotometer, color difference between the restoration and the adjacent or contralateral natural tooth will be measured by the unit (ΔE), (ΔE) will be measured for each sample.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Patient satisfactionimmediate after cementation

By Visual Analogue Scale, with score range from 1 to 10 , where 1 is the worst (lowest satisfaction) and 10 is the best (highest satisfaction).
