About this study

Official title: A Clinical and Experimental Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Locally Applied Hyaluronic Acid in Bone Healing Following Dental Extraction

This is a randomized controlled trial with a split mouth design. Patients with an indication of lower dental extraction will be asked to join this research project at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at University of Damascus Dental School. Each patient whose case requires bilateral extraction, one side will serve as an experimental side, whereas the other side will serve as a control.

Participants should have symmetric teeth that need extraction in the lower jaw. Hyaluronic acid will be injected following extraction in one of the two sides with random allocation.

cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) images will be taken for each participant immediately post-extraction and at six months post-operatively.

Read the detailed description

I- Clinical examination variables:

Buccolingual distance and distomesial distance will be measured for each participant at 2 assessment times: directly post-extraction and six months post-extraction.

II- Radiographic examination variables:

Linear measurements Vertical bone fill Bone mineral density

Being tested
Hyaluronic Acid

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Traditional Extraction GroupNo interventionIn this group, traditional extraction procedures will be followed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in bone mineral density (BMD)

    BMD is the amount of bone tissue in a certain volume of bone. This variable is going to be measured on CBCT images.

    Measured: (BMD) will be measured two times in this study: directly at the day of extraction and six months post-extraction.

  2. Vertical bone fill

    'Vertical bone fill' is the distance between the base of the extraction socket and cement-enamel junction directly after extraction and minus the distance between base of the extraction socket and cement-enamel junction six months post-extraction.

    This variable is going to be measured on CBCT images.

    Measured: This variable is going to be measured at 6 months post-extraction

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Buccolingual distance

    Buccolingual distance is the distance between buccal wall and lingual wall of the extraction socket. This variable is going to be measured clinically.

    Measured: at six months post-extraction

  2. Mesiodistal distance

    Mesiodistal distance is the distance between mesial wall and distal wall of the extraction socket. This variable is going to be measured clinically.

    Measured: at six months post-extraction

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hyaluronic Acid in people with Patients With Dental Extraction, run by Damascus University at 1 site in Syria.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 29 Sep 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 Syria. 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?

Change in bone mineral density (BMD) (time frame: (BMD) will be measured two times in this study: directly at the day of extraction and six months post-extraction.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02330822, which also lists 3 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 29 Sep 2015.
