ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new method for preparing teeth for all-ceramic crowns called the Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique (BOPT). Researchers want to see how this technique affects the health of the gums and surrounding structures compared to the traditional way of preparing teeth. They are currently looking for participants to join the study.
To be eligible, you need to be over 18 years old and have at least two teeth that need full crowns. It's important that your teeth and gums are healthy, and you should maintain good oral hygiene. If you're interested in participating, you'll be asked to visit the clinic for follow-up appointments to monitor your progress. This trial is open to everyone, regardless of gender, as long as they meet the criteria. Your involvement could help improve dental treatments for future patients!
