Trial summary

Endodontic therapy is to achieve the eviction of the inflamed or infected pulp and fill the canal opening with a hermetic sealing material. The analysis of the literature on intracanal therapeutic shows great variability of the results obtained, the reported success rate is 53 to 95%. Read more about this study

About this study

Endodontic therapy is to achieve the eviction of the inflamed or infected pulp and fill the canal opening with a hermetic sealing material.

The analysis of the literature on intracanal therapeutic shows great variability of the results obtained, the reported success rate is 53 to 95%.

Read more

This is explained by the difficulty of the surgical procedure, but also by the multiplicity of possible factors of failure, related practitioner, canal anatomy, the operating procedures, the preparation techniques and root canal filling. This success rate is variable depending on the presence or absence of periapical pathology before treatment: more than 85% for teeth treated without initial periapical pathology against only 62% for teeth with pathology before treatment. Furthermore, the literature review revealed two contradictory assumptions about the dominant factor failure in endodontics: the failure of the sealing canal system (bad level shutter) against the failure of the endovascular disinfection.

Main hypothesis of the research objectives:

The probability of success in a year endodontic treatments carried out according to the recommendations and the operating standards on teeth with periapical pathology is approximately 60%.

The primary prognostic factors would be the existence of intracanal obstacles (stop calcification ...) responsible for a sub-obturation of the canal, factors inherent to the tooth (situation ductal anatomy and complexity), the operating techniques used, the practitioner ( skill level), the quality of the restoration.

What is being measured

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

  1. The assessment at one year of intracanal treatment on teeth defined on clinical and radiographic criteria, as recommended by the ESE (European Society of Endodontology) (success / failure / uncertain cases)

    Consider the probability of failure of intracanal treatment on teeth with periapical pathology in the first year following treatment.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endodontic treatment in people with Dental Pulp Disorder, run by Nantes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

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 9 inclusion and 10 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 30 Jun 2016. 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 France. 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?

The assessment at one year of intracanal treatment on teeth defined on clinical and radiographic criteria, as recommended by the ESE (European Society of Endodontology) (success / failure / uncertain cases) (time frame: 1 year). 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 30 Jun 2016.
