About this study

Official title: Clinical Performance of High-Viscous Glass-Ionomer Restorative Systems In Class II Lesions

The purpose of this study is to extend our knowledge concerning the clinical performance of two dental filling materials in molars. The study will compare two high-strength glass-ionomer filling materials.

The investigators hypothesize that after two years (1) the clinical performance of both filling materials shows a similar survival rate, (2) the ChemFil Rock fillings show similar or higher incidence of fracture than Fuji IX GP fillings.

Read the detailed description

In this longitudinal prospective randomized control clinical trial, posterior restorations (Class II) will be placed and evaluated for their clinical performance. The study will compare two restorative systems currently on the market in USA: both high-strength glass-ionomer (GI) restorative materials. The study restorations will be monitored for a period of up to 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Survival Rate

    • Cut-off: Restoration failure as determined by (need for) replacement due to fracture and retention losses within both arms.
    • "Clinically successful" is defined as: no need for replacement due to fracture or retention losses.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Caries Incidence Associated With Restoration

    • "Caries free restorations" is defined as: free of caries associated with restoration.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Restored Tooth Performance

    • Cut-off: Restored tooth failure (tooth in need of repair or management) as determined by Tooth integrity (enamel/tooth fracture), Sensitivity and Vitality assessment within both arms.
    • "Clinically successful" is defined as: No need for repair or management due to sensitivity or loss of tooth integrity or vitality.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chemfil ROCK Glassionomer restoration and Fuji IX GP Extra Glassionomer restoration in people with Dental Caries, run by Mathilde Peters, DMD, PhD 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 2 inclusion and 1 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 3 Oct 2017. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Oct 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Survival Rate (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 3 Oct 2017.
