Smart Digital Denture Conversion (SDDC), a Technique for Full Arch Immediate Loading: A Randomized Trial

This study presents a smart digital approach to design and construct a screw retained immediately loaded full arch implant supported bridge based on the pre-treatment complete denture.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

After intra oral scanning of the ridge form, implant positions, the denture is used to scan the intermaxillary relation and tooth positions and the fixed interim is designed and milled from PMMA. This technique is applicable when a single arch is treated or for bimaxillary implant rehabilitation cases. In this study 30 patients were grouped into two groups; group I in which a converted denture was made conventionally and Group II in which a converted denture was made digitally. General satisfaction, chair side working time, and esthetic outcome of the prostheses were recorded and quantified with a verbal rating scale following insertion of implant-supported prosthesis.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Supportive Care
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: conventional denture conversion
a conventional denture conversion will be done following the conventional fabrication technique.
conventional workflow usually done to do immediate loading for full arch implant cases
Experimental: digital denture conversion
An alternative workflow for construction of the fixed interim requires impressions, model production, and jaw relation records then digitizing all these data then designing and milling the restoration.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patient general satisfaction questionnaire
Time Frame: through study completion within 6 months
General satisfaction with a verbal rating scale range from 0 to 5, as 0 denotes the lowest value (worst) and 5 the highest value (best), following insertion of implant-supported prosthesis.
through study completion within 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
chair side working time questionnaire
Time Frame: through study completion within 6 months
the procedure working time with a verbal rating scale range from 0 to 5, as 0 denotes the lowest value (worst) and 5 the highest value (best), following insertion of implant-supported prosthesis.
through study completion within 6 months
esthetic satisfaction questionnaire
Time Frame: through study completion within 6 months
esthetic outcome of the prostheses with a verbal rating scale range from 0 to 5, as 0 denotes the lowest value (worst) and 5 the highest value (best), following insertion of implant-supported prosthesis.
through study completion within 6 months
