About this study

Official title: Clinical Performance of Fissure Sealants Bonded With Total and Self-etch Modes of Universal Adhesive Agents

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the clinical retention of a resin-based fissure sealant placed with prior application of etch-and-rinse and self-etch modes of universal adhesives.

Read the detailed description

Sealants will placed on previously unsealed, caries-free permanent first molars, employing a split-mouth design. 100 patients will be included the study. The teeth will be randomized into eight groups according to the adhesive systems and modes placed under the tested resin-based sealant.

Group1: Acid-Etch + Fissure sealant (ClinPro 3M ESPE, U.S.) (Control arm) Group2: All Bond Universal (Bisco Inc., Schaumburg,IL, U.S.) - with self etch technique + Fissure sealant ; Group3: All Bond Universal - total etch technique + Fissure sealant Group4: Scotchbond (Single Bond) Universal (3M ESPE, U.S.) - self etch technique + Fissure sealant Group5: Scotchbond (Single Bond) Universal - total etch technique + Fissure sealant Group6: Clearfil Universal Bond (Kuraray, Tokyo, Japan) - self etch technique + Fissure sealant Group7: Clearfil Universal Bond- total etch technique + Fissure sealant Group8: Single Bond Plus (3M ESPE)- total etch technique + Fissure sealant

Clinical assessments will be performed according to modified USPHS criteria at 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. Retention, seconder caries, marginal adaptation and marginal discoloration of the sealants will be evaluated.

The data will be analyzed statistically using Fisher's Exact test and Kaplan-Meier analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Completion of clinical evaluations (retention, secondary caries, marginal adaptation and marginal discoloration) of all teeth assessed by modified USPHS criteria

    Long-term clinical success of different universal adhesives under fissure sealants

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Adhesive agent in people with Dental Caries on Pit and Fissure Surface, run by Hacettepe University.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 2021. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Zafer C Cehreli, Prof (00903123052280, zcehreli@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Completion of clinical evaluations (retention, secondary caries, marginal adaptation and marginal discoloration) of all teeth assessed by modified USPHS criteria (time frame: 24 months). 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 NCT02897089, 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 15 Mar 2021.
