ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is investigating the sizes of primary teeth, specifically the crown dimensions of baby teeth, in Egyptian children. The study aims to measure these dimensions using digital methods and compare the sizes of prefabricated zirconia crowns (which are artificial teeth made from a strong material) to international standards for primary upper central incisors (the two front teeth). This research is important to ensure that the crowns fit well and look natural for children in Egypt.
To participate in this study, children must have normal, fully erupted primary teeth without any unusual shapes or previous treatments like braces or dental work. Eligible children should have healthy teeth with only minor issues like tiny cavities, but no severe decay or damage. The trial is not yet recruiting participants, but it is open to all children aged 4 to 6 years who meet these criteria. If selected, children will undergo assessments that help understand how their teeth compare to international standards, which could lead to better dental care options for kids in the future.
