Trial summary

Lip support plays an important role in facial esthetics, being a relevant factor when realizing full arch implant supported rehabilitations. However, there is a lack of research on the three dimensional impact of such restorations. Read more about this study

About this study

Lip support plays an important role in facial esthetics, being a relevant factor when realizing full arch implant supported rehabilitations. However, there is a lack of research on the three dimensional impact of such restorations.

Read the detailed description

As lip support is becoming more determinant in the facial esthetics outcome after full arch implant rehabilitation, there is a need to know the influence of said rehabilitation in the lower third profile of the patients. Then, through facial scanning, this study's purpose is to evaluate three dimensional changes that arise since the initial state that the patient presents to the office until is rehabilitated through 3D discrepancies and 2D linear measurements.

What participants receive

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

  • Facial scannerDevice

    The Bellus3D facial scanner will be used to scan the patient before and after implant rehabilitation in order to produce .obj files that allow 3D comparisons and to obtain discrepancy values regarding lip support.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Lip Support Changes in 3D (μm)

    Quantitatively measure 3D facial alterations induced by full arch implant rehabilitation (in Root Mean Square)

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Facial Alterations in 2D (mm)

    Evaluate facial modifications caused by full arch implant rehabilitation by measuring distances between pre-determined facial landmarks

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Facial scanner in people with Lip and Prosthesis User, run by Implantology Institute at 1 site in Portugal.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Portugal. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Lip Support Changes in 3D (μm) (time frame: 1 month). 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 16 Sep 2021.
