About this study

The aim of this study is to evaluate the healing of peri-implat tissue following surgical uncovering with the adjunctive use of Chlorohexidine (CHX) gel.

Read the detailed description

Patients who received implants in our department, and scheduled for surgical uncovering of the implants will be asked to participate in this clinical trial (40) Patients from Department of periodontology, Rambam Health campus, Haifa in Israel will be recruited to Randomized clinical trial; patients will be divided randomly in to 2 groups:

  1. Control: following uncovering of the implant a 4 mm height healing abutment will be screwed to the implant (the standard treatment modality) without using Chlorohexidine gel or any other gel.
  2. Test group: following implant exposure this group will receive Chlorohexidine 1% gel (Corsodyl®) the gel will be applied on the abutment as well as on the implant internal hex and then a 4 mm healing abutment will be connected.

What participants receive

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

  • CorsodylDrug

    Also called Test group

    following local anesthesia buccal and lingual flaps will be raised minimally, the cover screw will be removed from the implant. In the test group, Corsodyl gel 1% CLOROHEXIDINE will be applied on the implant and the healing abutment.

CONTROL groupNo interventionfollowing local anesthesia buccal and lingual flaps will be raised minimally, the cover screw will be removed from the implant .In the control group, Corsodyl gel 1% Chlorohexidine will not be applied on the implant and the healing abutment). Healing abutment of 4 mm height will be screwed to the implant and flap will be sutured with silk 4-0 sutures. Parallel radiograph will be taken after the surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Recession depth

    Distance from the healing abutment top to the free gingival margin will be measured by periodontal probe at the mid-buccal aspect of the healing abutment. Recession (Rec) is defined as the difference in millimeters between baseline to to 3 months .

    Measured: 3 MONTHS

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. PROBING DEPTH

    The distance between the free gingival margin to the base of the pocket will be measured by periodontal probe in millimeters.

    Measured: 3 MONTHS

  2. Width of the keratinized mucosa (WKM)

    the distance in millimeters between the free gingival margin to the mucogingival line will be measured by periodontal probe .

    Measured: 3 MONTHS

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Corsodyl in people with Implant Infection and Bone Loss, run by Rambam Health Care Campus.

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 7 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 22 Jun 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Hadar Zigdon, Dr. (972-544545477, h_zigdon@rambam.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recession depth (time frame: 3 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 22 Jun 2017.
