About this study

Official title: Discoloration After Revascularization Using Calcium Phosphosilicate Based Bioceramic vs Mineral Trioxide Aggregate in Necrotic Immature Permanent Anterior Teeth: A Randomized Clinical Trial

the objective of this study is to evaluate post operative pain after using Endosequence versus Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as coronal plug material in revascularization of non vital immature anterior teeth

Read the detailed description

The treatment of immature young permanent anterior teeth is challenging because in addition of the need of elimination of bacterial infection; the lack of natural apical constriction against which a suitable filling material can be placed is considered the main problem.

In the past many different treatments have been proposed for immature permanent teeth with necrotic pulps such as:Custom fitting of filling materials like gutta percha, Periapical surgeries, apexification. The disadvantages of these treatments are: the compromised Crown/root ratio, possibility of vertical fracture.

Pulp revascularization is dependent on the ability of residual pulp and apical and periodontal stem cells to differentiate. These cells have the ability to generate a highly vascularized and rich living tissue.

MTA was chosen as coronal seal to be placed over the blood clot due its a biocompatibility, bio-inductivity. However, the disadvantages of MTA are: discoloration of the coronal dentine when placed in the canal and the difficult handling properties.

Recently, a new bioceramic material has been introduced to the market, namely, EndoSequence which is bioactive, has antibacterial activity, less cytotoxic effect and similar antimicrobial properties, maintain color stability of the tooth when compared to MTA

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Revascularization in people with Pulp Necrosis, 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 5 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 19 Jul 2022. 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.

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?

discoloration (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Jul 2022.
