Marginal Adaptation, Shade Matching, of Polychromatic Feldspathic VS Polychromatic Hybrid Ceramic Laminate Veneer

PICO P: Population: patients' needs esthetic anterior veneers. I: Intervention: Multicolor hybrid ceramic laminate veneers. C: Comparison: Multicolor feldspathic laminate veneers. O: Outcome: primary: Marginal adaptation. secondary:1 Shade matching 2. Patient satisfaction. S: Study design: Randomized controlled clinical trial. T Time: One year. Research question Will polychromatic hybrid ceramic laminate veneer improve the marginal adaptation, shade matching, and patient satisfaction when compared to polychromatic feldspathic porcelain laminate veneer? Statement of the problem Anterior all-ceramic restoration exhibits esthetic challenge due to color gradient of the tooth nature from cervical to incisor, subsequently, the monochromatic CAD/CAM blocks need external stains which require more time and effort moreover it may leach out over time.

Since the feldspathic ceramic blocks display the highest translucent properties of all ceramic blocks, which make it the first choice in the esthetic zone, on the other hand, it has low strength properties that need careful handling before cementation consequently, the hybrid ceramic overcomes the brittleness characteristic of felspathic ceramics with new material that has comparable esthetic and translucency with polychromatic feature and resilience properties.

Multi-shaded blocks have recently been introducing to the market due to a lack of evidence in clinical performance evaluating marginal adaptation and shade matching of the polychromatic newly introduced blocks comparing their different color gradient. For that, the current study will directly evaluate the shade matching of feldspathic polychromatic porcelain blocks versus hybrid ceramic polychromatic blocks to enhance the multichromatic shade matching of laminate veneers restorations.

Rationale Decision-making for the treatment of esthetic areas performed to achieve highly esthetic outcomes the primary factor for achieving this goal is the material used which, should be of a high shade matching the nature color transition of the natural teeth from cervical to incisal third. Probably the new Enovation of multicolor hybrid ceramic and feldspathic porcelain will solve this problem.

Aim of the study:

The present study aims to evaluate the marginal adaptation, shade matching, and patient satisfaction of polychromatic feldspathic porcelain laminate veneer compared to hybrid ceramic multi-color laminate veneer.

Null hypothesis:

There will be no difference regarding the marginal integrity, shade matching, and patient satisfaction between multicolored feldspathic porcelain anterior laminate veneers and hybrid ceramic multi-color anterior laminate veneers.

III. Methods A) Participants, interventions, and outcomes 9- Study setting: This study will be carried out on patients enrolled from the outpatient clinic in fixed prosthodontics clinic, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University 10- Intervention:

10.a.i. Examination and diagnosis:

• Selection and examination of the patients according to inclusion and exclusion criteria proper scaling and polishing procedure will be done
• Primary impressions will take to produce a study cast. The patients will instruct to maintain good oral hygiene by using a toothbrush twice daily.

• Taking a pre-operative professional photo. 10.a.ii. Tooth preparation procedure:

  1. Recording the sulcus depth and gingival condition before preparation.
  2. Conservative tooth preparation will be prepared after local anesthesia has been given as required.
  3. Full coverage preparation will be carried out.

  3. After tooth preparation, adequate 2ry Impression using nonaqueous elastomeric impression materials and bite registration will be taken.

  5. Fabrication of the temporary restoration using composite resin temporary material and cemented using non-Eugenol Zinc Oxide temporary cement.

  10.a.iii. Fabrication and cementation of restoration: Bio-HPP will be supplied in the form of discs to fabricate crown core by CAD/CAM technology then veneered with two veneering techniques; the CAD/ CAM and the manual technique using the viologen system of appropriate shade. The finished Bio HPP crown will cement with adhesive resin cement according to manufacturer instructions.

  10.b. Criteria for discontinuing: Restoration will be removed when there are any signs of leakage, fracture, or severe post-operative pain due to pulpal response and replaced by a temporary restoration cemented with Ca (OH) cement to elevate pain.

  10.c. Strategies to improve adherence to intervention protocol:

• ''In the first visit, a Face to Face adherence session will hold for the patient to be informed about the study steps and how to maintain oral hygiene measures.

Further sessions will occur at the follow-up visits. Participant patients will ask about any problems they are having. Patients will be recalled every three months for one year for follow-up visits.

10.d. Permitted or prohibited interventions: Oral hygiene measures are permitted for enhanced results while using hard toothbrushes or abrasive containing toothpaste after the intervention is prohibited.

11- Outcomes:

- The following assessment surveys (clinical evaluations) will be carried out for both groups: T0 = Preoperative phase: clinical records, periapical radiograph, intraoral photographs, and study casts.

T1 = immediately after final restoration delivery: intraoral photographs. T2 = postoperatively: assessment of the marginal adaptation, shade matching, and patient satisfaction.
