"Patient Satisfaction with Intra-Oral Vs. Extra-Oral Scanned 3D-Printed Dentures: an in Vivo Study"
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate patient satisfaction with intra-orally scanned versus extra-orally scanned digitally printed maxillary dentures in completely edentulous patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do intra-orally scanned dentures provide higher patient satisfaction compared to extra-orally scanned dentures? 2. Are there significant differences in comfort, fit, aesthetics and phonetics between the two types of dentures? Researchers will compare the intra-orally scanned denture group to the extra-orally scanned denture group to determine if one method leads to superior patient-reported outcomes. Participants will: * Receive both types of dentures (intra-orally scanned and extra-orally scanned), with a three-week wash-out period between each intervention. * Complete satisfaction surveys to assess comfort, fit, and aesthetics after using each type of denture. The study aims to provide evidence on the optimal scanning method for digitally printed maxillary dentures in edentulous patients.
