About this study

The study will compare the accuracy of surgical guides fabricated by two different scanning protocols; facially driven scanning versus dual scanning protocol regarding the deviation of implant placement.

Read the detailed description

Twelve completely edentulous patients will be selected for full arch maxillary guided implants placement with immediately loaded restoration. The patients will make a complete oral and radiographic examination before inclusion in this study. All patients will receive maxillary and mandibular complete dentures that will be made in a conventional way. The patients will be randomly divided into two equal groups; group (I) and group (II). In both groups two CBCT scans will be made. A CBCT scan will be made for each patient while wearing the radiographic stent and another CBCT scan will be made for the radiographic stent alone. However, for patients in group II a face scan will be added to previous scans. For each patient in group I, the DICOM files will be exported to Blue Sky implant designing software (Langenhagener, Mdi Europa GmbH), fusion of the scan prosthesis via the markers is accomplished and the ideal surgical site and optimal implant dimensions will be selected. All the surgical guides will be planned to be totally limiting in this study. The immediate provisional restoration will be planned on the software according to the previously planned implants sites. The surgical guide will be 3D printed. The approved tooth arrangement will be subsequently sent as an STL file to a milling machine. For each patient in group II, the DICOM files and the STL files obtained from the face scans will be exported to Blue Sky implant designing software (Langenhagener, Mdi Europa GmbH). The facial scan will be used to define the interpupillary and midsagittal planes and to examine the tooth form and buccal corridor width with regard to the patient's smile line. Both files data will be superimposed and the planning for the implants sites, surgical guide and immediate restoration will be done as in group I. After implant insertion, CBCT scan will be made for each patient while wearing the scan appliance. Superimposition of CBCT scans pre and post implant insertion and restoration will be made. Deviations between planned and placed implant will be measured in the lateral apical, lateral coronal and angular aspects. Also, the patient satisfaction will be measured on a likert scale.

What participants receive

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

  • Dual scan protocolDevice

    one CBCT scan for the patient while wearing the scan appliance and another scan for the appliance alone

  • triple scan protocolDevice

    3D facial Scanning for the patients while wearing their dentures in addition to the dual scan protocol

What is being measured

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

  1. ( Assessment of linear deviation

    Accurate details recorded by superimposition of CBCTs using the blue sky software program by measuring the lateral coronal deviation in millimeters.

    Measured: 1day

  2. ( Assessment of linear deviation

    Accurate details recorded by superimposition of CBCTs using the blue sky software program by measuring the lateral apical deviation in millimeter.

    Measured: 1day

  3. ( Assessment of angular deviation

    Accurate details recorded by superimposition of CBCTs using the blue sky software program by measuring the angular deviation in degrees.

    Measured: 1day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. patient satisfaction

    Accurate details recorded by using a 5 points likert scale for measuring the patient satisfaction by filling specific questionnaire: Oral Health Impact Profile 14 questions ( OHIP-14) and taking the answer of each question on a 5 point likert scale with 0 for the worst score and 5 for the best one

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dual scan protocol and triple scan protocol in people with Computer-Assisted Surgery, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Nov 2023. 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Dina Abd Elmoez, BDS MSc (01030762236, Dodo1992am@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

( Assessment of linear deviation (time frame: 1day). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Nov 2023.
