In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This prospective randomized crossover clinical trial evaluates and compares the clinical performance and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of complete dentures fabricated through two additive manufacturing workflows - digital and hybrid - in edentulous patients attending the Dental Clinic of Universidad de Especialidades Espíritu Santo (UEES), Samborondón, Ecuador. In the digital workflow, complete dentures are fabricated using direct intraoral scanning of edentulous ridges, CAD design, and 3D printing. In the hybrid workflow, conventional functional impressions are digitized, followed by CAD design and additive manufacturing of the definitive dentures. Each eligible participant receives two complete denture sets in a randomized crossover sequence (no washout period): Denture Set 1 is worn for 2 months, after which the participant crosses over to Denture Set 2, worn for an a
