About this study

Official title: The Effects of Active Surveillance Protocol on Long Term Quality of Life in Patints With Mild Pericoronitis

The complications that could occur during or after the extraction of the mandibular third molar teeth with pericoronitis affect patient's life quality considerably. Various scales are used to reveal how much the life quality of patients is affected this treatment. The aim of this study is to identify the long term life quality of patients through the OHIP-14 TR scale without removing the mandibular third molar teeth with mild pericoronitis.

Read the detailed description

Increasing the lenght stay in the mouth at a maximum rate and following the patient up after the necessary treatment and information procedures are completed. As a result of clinical and radiographical examinations fifty-five voluntary patients whose average age was 24 and who have semi or fully errupted vertical mandibular third molar teeth with the diagnosis of mild pericoronitis were included in the study.After the patients in the study filled out the form including their contact and demographic data and dental symptomsand completed OHIP-14 TR scale which last about 5 minutes, their curretage and operculectomy treatments were done under local anesthesia. The patients were invited for reexamination on seventh day after the treatment. Also, an active patient follow up about life quality was performed by phone at 1,3,6 month after the treatment using the self -assessment question form and the OHIP-14 TR scale.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pericoronitis, run by Ankara 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 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 14 Feb 2017. 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?

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?

Total score of OHIP-14 TR at the begining of experiment (time frame: first month). 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 14 Feb 2017.
