Overview
Brief Summary
This crossover clinical study will examine the impact of the framework material of implant-supported prostheses on patient satisfaction and Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) with mandibular All-on-4 implant distribution. The trial will investigate subject satisfaction, OHRQoL as the primary outcome, and chewing efficiency and maximum bite force as secondary outcomes for different framework materials used in implant-supported screw-retained restorations. The first null hypothesis states no significant difference in patient satisfaction and OHRQoL between the tested prostheses. Additionally, the second null hypothesis states no significant difference in chewing efficiency and maximum bite force between the tested prostheses.
Detailed Description
Prosthetic steps 1. For each patient, an abutment-level impression will be made, and the resultant cast will be 3D scanned for CAD/CAM construction of a PEEK superstructure with abutments. 2. A verification jig will be constructed to ensure the accuracy of the cast. 3. The final prosthesis will be virtually planned by using the Exo-Cad software. 4. The final prosthesis will be milled in Duralay polymerized resin disk, and the prosthesis resin pattern will be tried intra-orally for passive fit using a screw test. 5. For the PP, The PEEK framework will be constructed, the fit of the PEEK framework will be verified intraorally, and the final screw-retained prosthesis will be constructed of PMMA teeth and a visiolign pink composite estimating the gingival tissue. 6. For the TP, the framework will be milled from Ti blocks according to the virtual design of the final prosthesis framework. PMMA teeth then will be cemented, and the final prosthesis will be screwed. Evaluation 1. Patient satisfaction (VAS) Patient satisfaction will be evaluated using a questionnaire based on a visual analog scale (VAS).(21) Patients will be asked to mark their answer (amount of satisfaction) on a 100-mm line (with zero referring to not satisfied at all and 100 referring to completely satisfied). The mean of the answers (length of the lines from zero to the marks in mm) for each question was subjected to statistical analysis. 2. Oral health-related quality of life (OHIP-14) The oral health impact profile (OHIP-14) questionnaire was used to measure OHRQoL. The full OHIP questionnaire consisted of 49 items covering seven main domains: functional limitation, physical pain, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, and social disability. The OHIP-14 questionnaires were translated into Arabic by linguistic professionals who worked in collaboration with the authors to prepare the final version. 3. Evaluation of masticatory efficiency: Chewing efficiency will be evaluated using the color mixing ability test. 4. Evaluation of maximum bite force (BF): A digital BF transducer will be used to evaluate maximum BF in Newton (N).
