About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of Bioactive Resin Based Pits & Fissures Sealants Versus Conventional Resin Based Pits & Fissures Sealants in Caries Susceptible Fissures in Permanent Molars: A Randomized Controlled Trial

This study will be conducted to evaluate the performance; in terms of retention and caries inhibition; of the newly introduced bioactive resin based pits and fissure sealant versus conventional resin based pits and fissure sealant in caries susceptible fissures in posterior molars in patients at risk of caries. Evaluation will be done by visual tactile examination \& VistaCAM.

Read the detailed description

In the investigator's study the comparator material will be BioCoat® by Premier® ; new bioactive resin pits and fissures sealant featuring SmartCap™ Technology. SmartCap™ Technology utilizes patented semi-permeable resin microcapsules. In BioCoat, the rechargeable SmartCap microcapsules are filled with ionic solutions of fluoride, calcium and phosphate, which diffuse in and out of the sealant. Greater fluoride uptake in the presence of calcium and phosphate ions is assumed.

With limited evidence based information in literature about using bioactive fissure sealants in susceptible fissures , it was found beneficial to evaluate the newly introduced material using a randomized controlled trial to test the null hypothesis that bioactive resin pits and fissure sealant will have the same clinical performance as conventional resin based pits and fissure sealant in susceptible fissures.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing BioCoat® by Premier®. and 3M™ Clinpro™ Sealant. in people with Caries, Dental, run by Cairo 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 4 inclusion and 10 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 Jan 2019. 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?

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?

Retention of sealant (time frame: one year). 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 Jan 2019.
