  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Volunteers that having at least two permanent first molars of opposite sides of the mouth, erupted in the oral cavity, caries-free and high-risk disease (presence of white spots, history of caries, plaque in smooth surfaces and gingivitis);
  • Children who had one or two bilateral matched pairs of carious deciduous molars that required either class I or class II restorations.

About this study

Official title: Performance of Glass-ionomer Cements in the Pit and Fissure Sealing and Atraumatic Restorative Treatment: a Randomized 2-year Clinical Trial

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial was evaluate the performance of two conventional glass-ionomer cements in the pit and fissure sealing and atraumatic restorative treatment in high caries risk children.

Read the detailed description

Sealants were applied on sound permanent first molars by "press finger technique" and carious deciduous molars that required either class I or class II restorations were restored according to manufacturers' recommendations in order to caries prevention and control.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of the teeth with glass-ionomer cement retention and prevention of caries.

    Criteria established by Frencken et al. (1998) was used.

    Measured: 6-month

  2. Number of the teeth with good restoration and caries absence.

    Criteria established by Frencken et al. (1998) was used.

    Measured: 6-month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Frequency of loss of the sealing material and prevention of caries.

    Criteria established by Frencken et al. (1998) was used.

    Measured: 6-month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Glass ionomer, Glass ionomer cement and -Glass ionomer- in people with Dental Caries, run by Fernanda Miori Pascon.

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 2 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 21 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Number of the teeth with glass-ionomer cement retention and prevention of caries. (time frame: 6-month). 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?
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 21 Jan 2016.
