About this study

Official title: Periodontal Disease Prevention Study:A Retrospective Cohort Study to Assess the Effect of Genetics and Dental Preventive Care on Periodontal Disease

This study is one component of a program to improve the maintenance of good dental health and the prevention of disease by use of risk stratification methods to efficiently guide increased preventive services to adult dental patients who are at increased risk for the major dental diseases, caries and adult periodontitis.

The investigators will use a retrospective cohort model to analyze a large dental claims database to determine if the frequency of preventive services influenced the periodontal disease outcomes and to determine if periodontal risk assessment information can be used to stratify dental patients into "high risk" and "low risk" categories that influence the effect of preventive services on periodontitis outcomes.

Primary Objective To evaluate whether dental patients who are classified as "low risk" for periodontal disease progression, based on history of periodontitis (claims history), smoking, diabetes, and IL-1 genetic variations, have different primary and secondary endpoints if they had two dental cleanings per year compared to one cleaning per year.

Secondary Objectives To evaluate whether dental patients who are classified as "high risk" for periodontal disease progression, based on a history of periodontitis, smoking, diabetes, and IL-1 genetic variations, have different primary and secondary endpoints if they had two dental cleanings per year compared to one cleaning per year.

To evaluate whether dental patients who have had one dental cleaning per year have different primary and secondary endpoints if they are classified as "low risk" for periodontal disease compared to patients who are classified as "high risk." To evaluate whether dental patients who have had two dental cleaning per year have different primary and secondary endpoints if they are classified as "low risk" for periodontal disease compared to patients who are classified as "high risk."

Low risk Control Group2 visits - Low Risk ~1200 subjects - Low risk Control Group = 2 visit intervention, no history of periodontitis, non-smoker, non-diabetic, IL-1 genotype (-)
High Risk Experimental Group1 visit - High Risk ~800 subjects High Risk Experimental Group = 1 visit intervention, one or more of the following risk factors: history of periodontitis, smoker or diabetic, IL-1 genotype (+)

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Tooth Loss Over 16 Year Period

    Tooth loss rate over 16 years was calculated as the cumulative percentage of participants with tooth loss over 16 years.

    Measured: 16 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change in Total Dental Claims During Monitoring Period

    Measured: 10 and 15 years

  2. Change in Total Periodontal Claims During the Monitoring Period

    Measured: 10 and 15 years

  3. Change in Periodontal Surgery Claims

    Measured: 10 and 15 years

  4. Change in Relationship of Risk Category & Tooth Loss Rate With Systemic Disease History on Questionnaire.

    Measured: 10 and 15 years

  5. Change in Evaluation for Dental Caries and Oral Cancer Within the Risk Categories

    Measured: 10 and 15 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis, run by University of Michigan 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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2015. 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 9 Jul 2015). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Tooth Loss Over 16 Year Period (time frame: 16 years). 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 NCT01584479, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Jul 2015.
