Trial summary

Although zirconia is widely used for fabrication of restorations, the 3Y-TZP zirconia where limited for posterior region for its high strength and bad esthetic. While the 5Y-TZP zirconia is limited for the anterior region due to its good esthetic and low strength. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: One Year Clinical Evaluation of Shade Matching and Patient Satisfaction of New Gradient Technology Monolithic Zirconia (5Y-TZP\3Y-TZP) Compared to Lithium Disilicate Crowns in Dental Esthetic Zone (Randomized Clinical Trial)

Although zirconia is widely used for fabrication of restorations, the 3Y-TZP zirconia where limited for posterior region for its high strength and bad esthetic. While the 5Y-TZP zirconia is limited for the anterior region due to its good esthetic and low strength. For that reason, the introduction of the new gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\3Y-TZP) (IPS e.max Zircad Prime) has offered a solution to solve this problem be combining the esthetic of 5Y-TZP and the high strength of 3Y-TZP. The aim of the present study is to evaluate shade matching to natural tooth and patient satisfaction of the new gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\3Y-TZP) and lithium disilicate ceramic crowns.

Read the detailed description

Restorative dentistry is a mix of science and art. The success of restorative dentistry is determined on the basis of functional and esthetic results. Closely matching natural teeth with an artificial restoration can be one of the most challenging procedures in restorative dentistry. Natural teeth vary greatly in color and shape.The color of a ceramic restoration is affected by the shade of the ceramic material, its thickness, and, the color of the underlying material. The restoration's color is influenced by ceramic firing temperature, the color of the prepared tooth, translucency and thickness of veneering porcelain.

The rational of this study is newly introduced gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\3Y-TZP) (IPS e.max Zircad Prime) with improved optical properties to solve the drawbacks of esthetic properties of zirconia.

Null hypothesis of the study will be:

  • There would be no difference in shade matching of the new gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\3Y-TZP) and lithium disilicate ceramic crowns used in the esthetic zone.
  • There would be no difference in patient satisfaction of new gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\3Y-TZP) and lithium disilicate ceramic crowns at baseline, 3, 6, 9, 12 months used in the esthetic zone.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • lithium disilicate (IPS e-max) ceramic crownOther

    monolithic lithium disilicate ceramic crown

  • New gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\ 3Y-TZP) IPS e.max ZirCad Prime ceramic crownOther

    conjunction with the two zirconium oxide raw materials 3Y-TZP and 5Y-TZP is responsible for producing a continuous, seamless progression of the shade and translucency within the material

  • natural toothOther

    natural tooth is composed of enamel. Enamel is on the surface of every tooth and it has a natural hue of white. However, the underlying dentin layer has a slightly yellowish color. This yellowish hue shows through the enamel in almost everyone

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing lithium disilicate (IPS e-max) ceramic crown, New gradient technology zirconia (5Y-TZP\ 3Y-TZP) IPS e.max ZirCad Prime ceramic crown and natural tooth in people with Decayed Teeth and Malposed 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 12 inclusion and 8 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 5 Feb 2021. 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?

Contact Noha Khaled Eid, M.D.s (01223976400, noha.khaled@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

shade match (time frame: 1 year). 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 5 Feb 2021.
