About this study

Official title: Redox Interactions Between Dental Restorations and Gingival Crevicular Fluid

The goal of the study was to ascertain the influence of dental caries and teeth position as well as the type and amount of the applied dental materials (DMs) on the oxidative stress (OS) status in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF).

Read the detailed description

Six DMs were tested by investigators, each sealed in one session: amalgam (Amg), zinc phosphate cement (ZnPhC), zinc polycarboxylate cement (ZnPoC), glass ionomer cement (GIC) and composites, Tetric EvoCeram (TEC) and Beautifil (BF).

The study included 88 dental outpatients. Oxidative stress parameters, including malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH) and total superoxide dismutase (tSOD) activity were measured in GCF, before (day 0) and after treatment (7th and 30th day).

Antagonistically positioned healthy teeth were used as a control.

Being tested
Amalgam placement, Tetric EvoCeram placement, Beautifil placement, Zinc phosphate cement placement, Zinc polycarboxylate cement placement
Keywords
dental restorations, gingival crevicular fluid, glutathione, lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in the levels of MDA in dental patients GCF after the applied treatments

    The concentration of MDA in GCF was measured before (0 day) and twice after the applied treatments (7th and 30th days). GCF was taken via the intracervical absorption technique. Control GCF (from mirror-positioned health teeth) was taken once before the treatment.

    Measured: 0th, 7th and 30th days.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in the levels of GSH in dental patients GCF after the applied treatments

    Measured: 0th, 7th and 30th days.

Model description
According to Black's Classification Criteria, patients were classified into four groups (K2 - K5). The number of patients within those groups were as follows: K2 (n=58), K3 (n=10), K4 (n=6) and K5 (n=14). Six different DMs were used in this study. The type of DM to be used for each patient was determined in relation to the dental lesion degree. DM placement was performed in one session and only one type was used per patient. Accordingly, 6 groups (arms) of dental patients (Amg, ZnPhC, ZnPoC, GIC, TEC and BF) were formed. Parameters of OS (MDA, GSH and tSOD) were measured in the GCF of the patients both before (day 0) and after treatment (on the 7th and 30th day).

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 May 2018. 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 Serbia. 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?

Changes in the levels of MDA in dental patients GCF after the applied treatments (time frame: 0th, 7th and 30th days.). 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 NCT03522532, which also lists 7 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 11 May 2018.
