About this study

Official title: Socket Shield Technique Versus Conventional Immediate Implant Placement in Thin Buccofacial Bone to Evaluate Buccal Bone Resorption: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Buccal bone is prone to resorb after tooth extraction specially with immediate tooth implantation which could compromise the esthetics of the patient. socket shield technique retains the buccal aspect of the extracted root fragment which may help in preventing the buccal bone from resorbing and prevent esthetics deterioration

Read the detailed description

The alveolar ridge resorbs and collapses following tooth removal which continues to be a major concern for practitioners. Many researchers concluded that buccal aspect of the ridge is more prone to resorption, as it is primarily supplied by the periodontal tissues and ligments of the tooth. Therefore, extraction of the hopeless tooth, may be a reason for buccal cortical plate resorbing at a faster rate than the palatal plate leading to its total degradation. This may lead to dimensional changes in the human ridge and the aesthetic area is highly affected by this process. Several techniques in the litreture were proposed to solve the problem of thin buccal bone resorption with or without immediate implantation in the aesthetic area. Some of these techniques are the guided bone and soft tissue regenraton and bone augmentation but proved to be slight aggressive with high morbidity rate. Recently, several papers were published concerning the socket shield technique explaining how to maintain the ridge width and height. Socket shield technique that was first introduced in 2010 aids at retaining the buccal fragment of root in place and intact thus placing the implant behind the lingual aspect of that fragment so that the periodontal ligments and tissues preserve its vitality and aids in preventing the collapsing of the buccal bone. This would help in improving aesthetics especially during immediate implant placment in the anterior maxillary region.

SOCKET SHIELD TECHNIQUEExperimentalSocket shield is the surgical removal of the frontal aspect of the badly broken root and retaining the lingual aspect so as to prevent crestal bone loss with insertion of the dental implant behind it
Receives: Device: Socket shield
Conventional immediate implantationActive comparatorConventional immediate implantation is the surgical removal of the entire badly broken root
Receives: Procedure: Conventional immediate implantation

What is being measured

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

  1. Buccal bone resorption assesed by cone beam computed tomography as a measuring tool

    Measuring buccal bone loss after the procedure comparing between leaving the buccal portion of the root and extracting the whole root

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Socket shield and Conventional immediate implantation in people with Crestal Bone Loss, 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 2017. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Abdullah A Mattar, A. Lecturer (00201010022987, dr_abdullah.mattar@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Buccal bone resorption assesed by cone beam computed tomography as a measuring tool (time frame: 12 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 15 Sep 2017.
