ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how long certain types of dental restorations last. Specifically, it focuses on glass-ceramic single tooth restorations made from materials called IPS e.max CAD and IPS e.max Press, which have been in place for more than 15 years. The goal is to find out how well these restorations hold up over time and to evaluate their appearance, function, and health impact.

To participate in the study, you need to be at least 18 years old and have had an indirect single tooth restoration (like an inlay, onlay, veneer, or crown) done at a specific clinic between 2006 and 2010 using the mentioned materials. You must also be able to visit the clinic in Schaan, FL, and be in good enough health to take part. If you join the study, you’ll help researchers learn more about the longevity and quality of these dental restorations, which could benefit future patients.
