Conditions

CAD/CAM Milling, Titanium Casting, Titanium Ceramic Crown

Brief summary

This clinical study aimed to evaluate the short-term clinical performance of porcelain-veneered titanium crowns fabricated using two different techniques: conventional casting and CAD/CAM milling. Restorations were assessed according to FDI clinical evaluation criteria with respect to esthetic, functional, and biological outcomes during follow-up appointments.Clinical evaluations took place at baseline (2 days after luting) and following 3, 6, 12, and 18 months after luting.

Interventions

DEVICECasting Titanium-Ceramic Crown

Titanium-based ceramic crowns produced using conventional casting technique and cemented clinically.

DEVICECAD/CAM Titanium-Ceramic Crown

Titanium-based ceramic crowns produced using CAD/CAM technology and cemented clinically.

Healthy volunteers

Inclusion criteria

* Patients with good oral hygiene * no systemic conditions contraindicating restorative treatment, * either post-endodontic crown indication * structurally compromised teeth (e.g., fracture, wear, or discoloration) with healthy periodontal and endodontic status were included in the study.

Exclusion criteria

* Patients with gingival inflammation * furcation defects, * abnormal probing depths * abnormal attachment levels, * parafunctional habits were excluded from the study.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Clinical performance of titanium-ceramic crowns evaluated using the Fédération Dentaire Internationale (FDI) World Dental Federation clinical criteria	Baseline, 3 months,6 months, 12 months, and 18 months	Clinical performance will be evaluated using the FDI World Dental Federation scoring system (scores 1-5). The overall FDI score will be used as the reported outcome measure
