Trial summary

This study histologically evaluates sites grafted with NuOss XC using ridge preservation techniques prior to placement of dental implants. Sites grafted with NuOss XC (bovine bone mineral with self-expanding collagen) will be compared to sites grafted with NuOss particulate (bovine bone mineral). Read more about this study

About this study

This study histologically evaluates sites grafted with NuOss XC using ridge preservation techniques prior to placement of dental implants. Sites grafted with NuOss XC (bovine bone mineral with self-expanding collagen) will be compared to sites grafted with NuOss particulate (bovine bone mineral).

Read the detailed description

Patients presenting to the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry Graduate Periodontics Clinic who are treatment planned for tooth extraction and placement of dental implant(s) will be interviewed for possible participation in the study. Forty extraction sites will be included in this study to provide statistical significance.

The ridge preservation sites, using either NuOss XC or NuOss particulate, will be selected randomly. The first site will be selected using the flip of a coin. Thereafter, every other site will be grafted using NuOs XC. The ridge preservation procedure will involve tooth extraction with as little trauma as possible to preserve all four bony socket walls, curettage of the socket to remove all periodontal ligament fibers and granulation tissue, placement of the graft material into the socket and coverings the graft material with long-lasting collagen membrane. Facial and lingual mucoperiosteal flaps will be elevated to facilitate securing of the membrane with long-lasting absorbable sutures. Patient will be given prescriptions for analgesics and antibiotics as necessary.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Histological analysis: All sections removed from the osteotomy (hole where implant will be placed) at time of implant placement to be evaluated by a single evaluator, using a semi-quantitative scoring system

    Histological processing: Specimens to be trimmed and embedded in methyl methacrylate (MMA). One hematoxylin and eosin (H\&E) stained section, and one Goldner's trichrome-stained section to be taken from each block in a longitudinal plane through the approximate center of each defect.

    Goldner's trichrome-stained slides to be scored for the presence of bone and bone marrow as a percent of the total defect area.

    H\&E-stained slides to be used to evaluate residual collagen and residual bone mineral as a percent of the total defect area.

    Measured: 12-18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oral Ridge Preservation, run by University of Oklahoma at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Histological analysis: All sections removed from the osteotomy (hole where implant will be placed) at time of implant placement to be evaluated by a single evaluator, using a semi-quantitative scoring system (time frame: 12-18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01391767, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jul 2013.
