Effect of printing layer thickness on fungus growth in 3D-printed dentures
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests how the thickness of printing layers in 3D-printed dentures affects the growth of Candida albicans, a type of fungus that can cause infections. It aims to find the best design to keep your mouth healthier.

This study compares two ways of making dental impressions for 3D-printed overdentures (removable tooth replacements held by implants). It looks for people who need new lower-jaw implants and are otherwise healthy.
This study tests whether the way 3D-printed dentures are made affects how they fit. It aims to improve comfort and function for people who have no teeth and need a complete upper denture.
This study compares two methods for making 3D-printed dentures to see which patients like better. It aims to find which technique is more comfortable and satisfying.
This trial compares two types of artificial tooth restorations (made from resin or zirconia) placed on dental implants that have already fused with your jawbone. The study tests how well these 3D-printed restorations work and last over time.
This study compares two ways of making complete dentures (upper and lower teeth replacements): using newer 3D printing technology versus traditional milling methods. Participants will wear these dentures for 5 years and report how well they work and feel.
This study compares 3D-printed denture teeth to traditional ones, looking at how well they wear down and how efficiently you can chew. If you have full dentures and are generally healthy, this trial could help determine which option works better for you.
