About this study

Official title: Extraction Socket Management Using Connective Tissue Graft Versus Mucograft®: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This study aims at assessing the hard and soft tissues remodelling of the alveolar crest after extraction socket managements in the aesthetic areas:

  • 3D radiographic evaluation (CT scan) was performed post extraction and 3 months after at the time of implant placement. (Outcomes 1: Hard tissues analyses )
  • Impressions, models and 3D analyses of the treated area allowed studying external soft tissue remodeling at different time points after extraction. (Outcomes 2: Soft tissues analyses )
Conditions
Tooth Lost
Being tested
Control surgical protocol, Test surgical protocol, Socket preservation
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Control surgical protocolProcedure or surgery

    A connective tissue graft will be harvested to the palate or posterior maxilla tuberosity. The dimension of the graft will be previously calculated according to the socket dimensions. The harvesting site will be made with a single edge incision and sutured with 4.0 silk (uninterrupted suture). The connective tissue graft will be reshaped if necessary to be 1-2mm thick and inserted into buccal pouch and sutured with 2 vertical interrupted sutures to be stabilized on the buccal aspect.

    The connective tissue graft is then positioned to caver the socket and inserted and sutured in the palatal pouch also by the means of vertical interrupted sutures (polypropylen 6.0).

  • Test surgical protocolProcedure or surgery

    The filling biomaterial (Bio-Oss®, Geistlich), previously humidified with a saline solution containing doxycycline (1mg/ml) and inserted into the socket without heavy compaction.

  • Socket preservationProcedure or surgery

    An atraumatic extraction will be performed in order to preserve the socket bone wall as well as the cervical soft tissues.

    Split- thickness pockets will be performed 5-6 mm deep buccally and 3-4 mm deep palatally preserving interproximal papillae. The filling biomaterial (Bio-Oss®, Geistlich), previously humidified with a saline solution containing doxycycline (1mg/ml) and inserted into the socket without heavy compaction. At this level of the surgery, the randomization envelope will be open and either the control or the test surgical protocol will be applied.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mucograft®, Geistlich BiomaterialsExperimentalA Mucograft membrane will be used in state of a connective tissue graft. The dimension of the Mucograft® will be previously calculated according to the site dimensions and inserted into buccal pouch and sutured to be stabilized on the buccal aspect. The membrane is then positioned to cover the socket and inserted and sutured in the palatal pouch by the means of vertical interrupted sutures

What is being measured

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

  1. Bone remodeling of the buccal and palatal walls using radiographic measurements

    Bone remodeling of the buccal and palatal walls will be measured in cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) on the day of extraction, at 3 months after implant placement.

    Measured: 1year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Soft tissue contours measurements by 3D image analyses.

    Models from the different time points are scanned using 3D-Laser-Scanner and Software (Metalor). 3D reconstructions are matched in order to evaluate 3D and 2D volume changes in extraction sites from baseline to implant placement.

    Measured: 6months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Test surgical protocol and Socket preservation in people with Tooth Lost, run by University of Liege.

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 4 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 27 Apr 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Bone remodeling of the buccal and palatal walls using radiographic measurements (time frame: 1year). 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 27 Apr 2016.
