Clinical Outcomes of 3D Printed and Milled Complete Dentures

5 giugno 2026 aggiornato da: Dentsply Sirona Implants and Consumables

An Open, Single-center, Prospective, Randomized, Two-armed, Interventional, Post-market Clinical Investigation of 3D Printed Complete Dentures and Milled Complete Dentures During a 5-year Follow-up Period

This is a two-armed, single-center clinical study evaluating performance, efficacy and safety of three dimensional (3D) printed complete dentures and milled complete dentures during a 5-year follow-up period. The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate survival rate, i.e. subjects with survived dentures in both upper and lower jaw, of 3D printed complete dentures and milled complete dentures after 1 year (in each of the groups separately).

Patient satisfaction including aesthetics as evaluated by patient questionnaire including the following questions:

  1. Are you overall satisfied with your dentures?

  3. Are you satisfied with the aesthetics of your dentures?
  4. Are you satisfied with your ability to speak when wearing your dentures?
  5. Are you satisfied with the fit of your dentures?

Patient satisfaction with dentures will be evaluated using a likert scale, ranging from 0 to 10 for each of above questions. The likert scale representing a spectrum of feelings between extremes with 0= Very unsatisfied and 10= Very satisfied. Patients will rate their assessment by marking a number corresponding to their feelings at the time. A low score represents a high degree of dissatisfaction, and a high score a high degree of satisfaction
