ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new way to improve dental treatments for patients who need full-arch restorations, which are procedures to replace many teeth at once. The researchers want to see how well a digital jaw tracking system works in capturing the movement of a patient's jaw and how this information can help create better-fitting dental restorations. By using advanced technology, they hope to ensure that the way teeth fit together (called occlusion) is more accurate, leading to better results for patients.

To participate in this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and have at least 10 teeth in both your upper and lower jaws. Unfortunately, individuals with certain health conditions, like uncontrolled diabetes or recent heart issues, as well as pregnant women or those with significant jaw problems, cannot join. If you decide to participate, you will be part of a study that evaluates how this new technology can improve dental care, and you may help shape future treatments for others. The trial is currently not recruiting participants, so more information will be available soon.
