About this study

Official title: The Evaluation Of Bone Width Gain Following Split Crest Technique With Or Without PRF In Conjunction With Simultaneous Implant Placement In Narrow Alveolar Ridges: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Split crest technique is a technique for horizontal bone augmentation used in case of narrow alveolar ridges as an alternative to the more aggressive techniques such as onlay bone grafting, guided bone regeneration (GBR) and distraction osteogenesis

The study goal is to evaluate whether if there will be any benefit of using platelet rich fibrin (PRF) with the split crest technique regarding bone width gain and healing response in comparison with split crest technique alone, where PRF is considered an autologous, growth factor containing material which is easy to collect and is of low cost.

Being tested
Split Crest with PRF, Split Crest without PRF

What participants receive

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

  • Split Crest with PRFProcedure or surgery

    Narrow ridges are split to increase the ridge width and immediate implants are placed with PRF closing the gap

  • Split Crest without PRFProcedure or surgery

    Narrow ridges are split to increase the ridge width and immediate implants are placed without grafting

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Split Crest with PRF and Split Crest without PRF in people with Ridge Deficiency, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 28 May 2024. 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 Egypt. 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?

Bone width gain (time frame: 6 months). 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 28 May 2024.
