About this study

Official title: Shade Evaluation of Monochromatic Versus Polychromatic Layering Techniques in Restoration of Fractured Incisal Angle: Randomized Controlled Trial

This clincl trial will be conducted to compare theShade Evaluation of Monochromatic versus Polychromatic layering techniques in restoration of Fractured incisal angle

Read the detailed description

The use of enamel and dentin shades allow us to reproduce anatomical features such as incisal edge translucency, halo effect, other internal colors and pigments such as craze lines, white patches, white horizontal striations .

Anterior composites usually have small filler particles to increase smoothness, nanotechnology has enabled recent advances in dental composite restorations. As a result , a different category of composite resins has emerged, known as nanocomposites.

However polychromatic layering is considered to be technique sensitive, from detection of details to proper reproduction of such fine details.

The presence of discrepancies between the classic shade guides and the actual shade of composite makes that task more difficult.

The use of monochromatic layering with only body shade can serve as a substitute for enamel and dentin, since it has an intermediate opacity between enamel and dentin , and can serve as an easier option with less technique sensitivity than polychromatic layering.

Filtek universal as claimed by the company manufacturer to have A "NaturalMatch" which is a term that describes the combination of 3M technologies and features present within 3M™ Filtek™ Universal restorative.

it contains nanofillers, pigments and proprietary low-stress monomers which gives Filtek™ Universal Restorative a combination of esthetic and universal opacity which in turn allow shade blending and making the restoration more invisible with surrounding dentition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing (3M™ Filtek™ Universal ) in people with Anterior Teeth, run by Cairo University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Shade matching (time frame: immediate after restoration). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Apr 2020.
