Summary

This trial will study how well a new, FDA-approved type of ceramic crown works. The crowns will be made in a single appointment using a computer technique, and their performance will be monitored over time.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals needing crowns due to tooth decay, fractures, or unsatisfactory restorations. Eligible participants should have one or two teeth requiring full crown restoration in molars or premolars that are vital and symptom-free. Those with devitalized/sensitive teeth, prior endodontic treatments, significant untreated dental disease, allergies to materials used in the study, or who are pregnant/lactating cannot participate.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The TetricCAD Crown Clinical Study tests a new FDA-approved resin-based ceramic material for crowns made using computer technology in a single appointment. The study aims to evaluate the long-term functionality of these high-strength crowns without the need for temporaries or follow-up fittings.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

While specific side effects aren't listed for this dental procedure, typical risks may include sensitivity around the treated area, discomfort from biting adjustments needed after crown placement and potential allergic reactions to materials used.
