About this trial

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical performance of a single-shade composite resin, used with an injection moulding technique, in restoring maxillary incisors affected by traumatic dental injury in patients aged 6-15 years.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* How well does a single composite resin colour match the natural tooth? * How stable is the colour over a 6- and 12-month follow-up? * How satisfied are the children and parents with the restoration?

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Children who exhibit cooperative dental behaviours (rating 3 and 4) according to Frankl's behaviour rating scale (Frankl et al. 1962)

Presence of at least one maxillary anterior permanent tooth with one-third of crown structure loss from dental trauma

The affected tooth must be vital or have undergone vital pulp therapy (e.g., pulpotomy with Calcium hydroxide, white-MTA, or Biodentine)

Disqualifiers

Known allergy to methacrylate-based materials

Presence of parafunctional habits, such as bruxism

Presence of rampant caries

Presence of signs of hypomineralisation, such as post-eruptive breakdown, hypersensitivity, changes in enamel texture and hardness, and abnormal translucency on radiographs.

Trial population

Patients aged 6-15 years who visit the Pediatric Dental Clinic at the Faculty of Dentistry, Mahidol University, for maxillary anterior tooth restoration

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Colour matching

Colour match and translucency grading of 'very good' according to FDI criteria indicates clinically excellent colour matching and translucency.

Time frame
Immediate, 1-week, 6-month, 12-month after restoration
2

Colour stability

Colour match and translucency, surface and margin staining, and surface lustre grading of 'very good' according to FDI criteria indicates clinically excellent colour stability.

Time frame
1-week, 6-month, 12-month after restoration

Secondary outcomes

1

Patient satisfaction

Patients show the highest aesthetic satisfaction if they score 5 on a 5-point Likert scale on the aesthetic questionnaire, ranging from 5 (most satisfied) to 1 (not satisfied).

Time frame
1-week, 6-month, 12-month after restoration
2

Parent satisfaction

Parents show the highest aesthetic satisfaction if they score 5 on a 5-point Likert scale on the aesthetic questionnaire, ranging from 5 (most satisfied) to 1 (not satisfied).

Time frame
1-week, 6-month, 12-month after restoration
