Smart Digital Denture Conversion (SDDC), a Technique for Full Arch Immediate Loading

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Complete Edentulism
Interventions
Procedure: digital denture conversion
Procedure: conventional denture conversion
Registration Number
NCT06233552
Lead Sponsor
Ain Shams University
Brief Summary

This study presents a smart digital approach to design and construct a screw retained immediately loaded full arch implant supported bridge based on the pre-treatment complete denture.

Detailed Description

After intra oral scanning of the ridge form, implant positions, the denture is used to scan the intermaxillary relation and tooth positions and the fixed interim is designed and milled from PMMA. This technique is applicable when a single arch is treated or for bimaxillary implant rehabilitation cases. In this study 30 patients were grouped into two groups; group I in which a converted denture was made conventionally and Group II in which a converted denture was made digitally. General satisfaction, chair side working time, and esthetic outcome of the prostheses were recorded and quantified with a verbal rating scale following insertion of implant-supported prosthesis.
