PMCF Study on The Performance and Safety of ON DENT® PMMA Discs/Blocks and Resin Products for Temporary Restorations

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Temporary Fixed Prosthesis (Tempo-CAD Monocolor PMMA): A custom-fabricated, 1-to-3 unit temporary fixed prosthodontic restoration (temporary crowns or bridges) produced through automated digital workflows. The provisional prosthesis is manufactured specifically from the ON DENT™ Tempo-CAD Monocolor PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) disc/block restorative material via high-precision centralized CAD/CAM milling procedures. The restoration is clinically delivered and cemented using an identical temporary cement brand to serve as an interim fixed dental prosthesis during the evaluative period.

Temporary Fixed Prosthesis (Tempo-CAD Monocolor SHT PMMA): A custom-fabricated, 1-to-3 unit temporary fixed prosthodontic restoration (temporary crowns or bridges) produced through automated digital workflows. The provisional prosthesis is manufactured specifically from the ON DENT™ Tempo-CAD Monocolor SHT (super-high translucent) PMMA disc/block restorative material via high-precision centralized CAD/CAM milling procedures. The restoration is clinically delivered and cemented using an identical temporary cement brand to serve as an interim fixed dental prosthesis during the evaluative period.

Temporary Fixed Prosthesis (Tempo-CAD Multicolor SHT PMMA): A custom-fabricated, 1-to-3 unit temporary fixed prosthodontic restoration (temporary crowns or bridges) produced through automated digital workflows. The provisional prosthesis is manufactured specifically from the ON DENT™ Tempo-CAD Multicolor SHT (super-high translucent) multi-layered PMMA disc/block restorative material via high-precision centralized CAD/CAM milling procedures. The restoration is clinically delivered and cemented using an identical temporary cement brand to serve as an interim fixed dental prosthesis during the evaluative period.

Temporary Fixed Prosthesis (Print On - Cyclone Perma Resin): A custom-fabricated, 1-to-3 unit temporary fixed prosthodontic restoration (temporary crowns or bridges) produced through automated digital workflows. The provisional prosthesis is manufactured specifically from the ON DENT™ Print On Cyclone Perma fluid, light-curable dimethacrylate-based photopolymer acrylic resin material via centralized stereolithographic 3D printing utilizing DLP (digital light processing) technology. The restoration is clinically delivered and cemented using an identical temporary cement brand to serve as an interim fixed dental prosthesis during the evaluative period.

Study summary

This prospective, single-center, interventional post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study aims to evaluate the clinical performance and safety of temporary crown and bridge restorations fabricated using CE-marked ON DENT™ restorative materials throughout their functional intraoral clinical duration. A total of 120 adult patients requiring fixed prosthodontic treatments will be randomly assigned to four independent parallel groups (30 patients per group) based on the specific type of temporary material utilized: Tempo-CAD Monocolor PMMA, Tempo-CAD Monocolor SHT PMMA, Tempo-CAD Multicolor SHT PMMA, or Print On Cyclone Perma liquid resin. Patients will be monitored closely across 5 clinical visits up to a maximum duration of 6 months to assess prosthodontic survival, success rates, biological adaptations, and patient-reported quality of life outcomes.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Success Rate of Temporary Fixed Restorations — At the final evaluation visit (Visit 5/up to 6 months).
  The success rate of the provisional restorations will be evaluated using the Revised World Dental Federation (FDI) criteria. For statistical analysis, the 5-point scale data will be dichotomized into "sufficient" and "insufficient" categories. Restorations scoring 1 to 3 points-representing clinically excellent/very good (1), clinically good (2), or clinically satisfactory (3) status-will be categorized as "sufficient" (success). Restorations scoring 4 (clinically insufficient/partially insufficient) or 5 (clinically poor/completely insufficient) points will be categorized as "insufficient" (failure). The success rate will be calculated as the final percentage of sufficient restorations within each independent arm.
• Survival Rate of Temporary Fixed Restorations — Throughout follow-up period (up to 6 months).
  The survival rate of the provisional restorations will be evaluated using the Revised FDI criteria. The calculation of the survival rate uses the dichotomization of the data into "restoration present including repaired" (scores 1-4) and "not present/failed" (score 5). Restorations scoring 1 to 4 points-encompassing all clinically sufficient statuses (1-3) and those evaluated as clinically insufficient but retained in function via repair or re-cementation (4)-will be categorized as "restoration present including repaired" (survived). Restorations scoring 5 points, indicating completely insufficient status or a restoration that is no longer present, will be categorized as "not present/failed". Cumulative survival probabilities over time will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
• Incidence of Clinical Complications — Throughout follow-up period (up to 6 months).
  The safety and clinical durability profiles of the provisional fixed dental restorations will be evaluated based on the frequency and specific types of technical, mechanical, or biological complications documented during the follow-up period. Data will be analyzed and reported independently for each study arm as the absolute count (n) and the percentage (%) of restorations experiencing at least one complication, utilizing descriptive and intra-group longitudinal statistics
• Incidence of Adverse Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE) — Throughout follow-up period (up to 6 months).
  Safety and tolerability tracking evaluated through the occurrence, severity, and causality-related frequencies of any reported Adverse Events (AE), Serious Adverse Events (SAE), and device deficiencies. Evaluations are conducted in accordance with the Medical Device Coordination Group (MDCG 2020-10/1) guidelines. Data will be analyzed independently within each device arm, reporting the absolute number of events and the percentage of participants affected.
