ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how well new partial dentures made from titanium perform in terms of speech and sound quality. Traditionally, partial dentures are made from materials like acrylic or metal alloys, but this trial is exploring the use of advanced technology called CAD/CAM to create these dentures from titanium. Titanium is lightweight, resistant to corrosion, and friendly to the body, but researchers want to learn more about how it affects a person's ability to speak clearly.

To participate in this trial, candidates must have specific dental conditions, like having certain types of missing teeth and healthy gums. They should also be in good overall health and able to maintain good oral hygiene. Participants can expect to receive a new titanium partial denture and will likely undergo evaluations to assess their speech performance. This trial is currently recruiting participants, and it welcomes individuals of all genders within the specified age range.
