Conditions

Clinical Performance, Patient Satisfaction

Brief summary

The clinical performance (using the modified Ryge criteria) and patient satisfaction ( using VAS questionnaire) of pressed BioHPP PEEK based posterior single crowns compared to zirconia based crowns are questionable as the peek is considered as a new material and need to be tested for future clinical application.

Detailed description

The study is held to evaluate the clinical performance (using the modified Ryge criteria) and patient satisfaction ( using VAS questionnaire) of pressed BioHPP PEEK based posterior single crowns compared to zirconia based crowns after one year follow-up. Patients requiring posterior single crowns are collected. After teeth preparation to receive single full coverage crowns, secondary impressions were taken. The patients were divided randomly into two groups ;one group will receive pressed BioHPP PEEK single crowns (the intervention) and the other group will receive veneered zirconia single crowns (the control). Fracture of restorations (1ry outcome) using modified Ryge criteria and the marginal adaptation (2ry outcome) using modified Ryge criteria and finally the patient satisfaction (3ry outcome) using a questionnaire, all outcomes will be evaluated every 2 months with total period of follow-up of one year.

Interventions

OTHERBioHPP PEEK single posterior crowns

BioHPP is a 20% ceramic reinforced, semicrystalline, thermoplastic and radiolucent polymeric material, used for fabrication of high strength fixed and removable prostheses. it has advantages of bio-compatibility, low density, light weight, shock absorption.

OTHERzirconia-based single posterior crowns

ZrO2, a ceramic material used for medical devices, displays good esthetic appearance, high mechanical strength, and high biocompatibility and is used in a wide range of indications, such as frameworks, implants, and abutments. In addition, it's very good long-term stability and reliability was proven in a 10-year clinical study. These excellent material properties and the transformation behavior are explained by the yttrium oxide stabilization of ZrO2.

Masking description

Double blinding (trial participants and outcome assessor) * Dental colleague assessors who are blinded about the aim of the study and participant's allocation will be responsible for assessing the outcomes of this study. * The level of intra- and inter-examiner reliability will be determined for each assessor by the performance of a calibration session prior to the start of the trial. A training exercise to the assessors with the main investigator will help to standardize measurement techniques and parameters. An interactive calibration session will enable the investigator to quantitate the measurement variability among and between assessors and enable the optimization of the measurement process. The main supervisor will solve any conflict that may arise between the assessors by repeating the assessing and giving the final opinion.
