About this study

Official title: The Efficacy Of A Bioactive Resin Material Used As A Fissure Sealant As Compared To A Conventional Resin Regarding Its Retention, Marginal Integrity And Prevention Of Lesion Progression. A Randomized Clinical Study

The aim of this study is to investigate the retention, marginal integrity and potential to prevent lesion progression of a bioactive resin material compared to a conventional resin-based flowable composite during management of initial carious lesion in adult population over an 18 months period.

Read the detailed description

Bio-active resin materials aim to possess the mechanical properties of resin materials in terms of higher wear resistance and dimensional stability over time. They also aim to mimic the biological activity of glass ionomers in terms of ion recharge and release. These new bio-active resin materials, with their lower particle size and better adaptability and polishability, might offer a substantial addition as fissure sealants if they fulfil the requisities satisfactory mechanical properties of resins and of ion recharge and release of glass ionomers.

The study will be conducted on demineralized fissures of permanent molars by application of a newly introduced giomer in one group while the other group will recieve a conventional resin material where they will be assessed for retention, marginal integrity and caries progression.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Fissure sealingOther

    The materials will be applied to the demineralized fissures as stated in manufacturer's instructions

Study groups in NCT04052802
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Bioactive resin (Giomer)ExperimentalThis group of patients will receive a bioactive resin "Beautifil flow plus X (Shofu Dental)" for treatment of their demineralized fissures
Receives: Other: Fissure sealing
Conventional resinExperimentalThis group of patients will receive a conventional resin "Filtek Z350xt Flowable composite (3M ESPE)" for treatment of their demineralized fissures
Receives: Other: Fissure sealing

What is being measured

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

  1. Retention

    The sealing materials will be assessed for complete, partial or no retention. The assessment will be carried out by visual and tactile assessments and calculated as a percentage of the total sample.

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Marginal integrity

    The materials margins will be assessed for their marginal seal using FDI criteria using a WHO probe. Scoring will be made from 1-5 by FDI criteria then statistically analyzed

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Caries progression

    The demineralized fissures will be monitored for caries arrest or progression. The assessment will be made by ICDAS II criteria comparing the scores from baseline.

    Measured: 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fissure sealing in people with Demineralization, Tooth and Demineralization, Fissure, 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 2 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 12 Aug 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?

Retention (time frame: 18 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 12 Aug 2019.
