About this study

Official title: Reminerlization Potential of Grape Seeds Extract Gel Versus Casein Phosphopeptide-amorphous Calcium Phosphate in Carious White Spot Lesions in Post Orthodontic Patients

Assess the effectiveness of applying grape seed extract (GSE) gel versus casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (MI) paste on remineralization of white spot lesion (WSLs) in post orthodontic patients.

Read the detailed description

The development of WSLs is a challenging problem in the track of orthodontic treatment. Especially in patients wearing fixed orthodontic appliances, plaque accumulation increases around brackets and bands and the pH on dental surfaces becomes acidic.

These early lesions are willing to remineralization, arrest, reharden and revert to healthy enamel condition through a remineralization process involving the diffusion of minerals into the defective tooth structure. For this purpose various remineralizing agents such as casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) and grape seed extract (GSE) have been used.

This research is conducted for early intervention and treatment of the white spot lesions by non-invasive method.

What is being measured

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

  1. Quantitative changes of white spot lesions

    changes in fluorescence of white spot lesions will be evaluated after reminerlization by using diagnodent device by score (0-20).

    Measured: evaluation of tooth surface changes at baseline and at 4, 12, and 24 weeks after starting treatment .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Grape seeds extract and Casein-phosphopeptide/amorphous-calcium phosphate in people with Dental Caries, 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 1 inclusion and 6 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 29 May 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.

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?

Quantitative changes of white spot lesions (time frame: evaluation of tooth surface changes at baseline and at 4, 12, and 24 weeks after starting treatment .). 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 29 May 2019.
