About this study

Official title: The Effect of Autogenous Tooth Roots for Lateral Alveolar Ridge Augmentation and Staged Implant Placement (A Controlled Clinical Study With Histological Assessment)

assess and compare the efficacy and safety of autogenous tooth roots for lateral alveolar ridge augmentation with staged implant placement in comparison to autogenous bone block.

Read the detailed description

A total of 14 patients in need of implant therapy and lateral ridge augmentation were allocated to parallel groups receiving either 1) healthy autogenous tooth roots (e.g. retained wisdom or impacted teeth or 2) cortical autogenous bone blocks harvested from the retromolar area. After 26 weeks of submerged healing the horizontal bone gain were assessed both clinically and radiographically. A core biopsy was taken during the implant placement to assess the histology of the newly formed bone.

What participants receive

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

  • tooth blockProcedure or surgery

    tooth root blocks were used to increase the bone width

  • autogenous bone blockProcedure or surgery

    autogenous bone block were used to increase the bone width

Study groups in NCT04266652
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Autogenous bone blockExperimentalthe monocortical block grafts were harvested from the retromolar region (i.e. linea oblique) by using of rotating (i.e. carbide burs)
Receives: Procedure: autogenous bone block
Tooth blockExperimentalIn the first group, a second mucoperiosteal flap was elevated to surgically remove the respective wisdom tooth. After its removal and during the same surgery, the crown was decapitated at the cemento -enamel junction using a rotating carbide bur under gentle sterile saline cooling and the exposed pulp was preserved. The separated tooth root was adapted to match the size and shape of the defect area. To improve ankylosis between the graft and the defect site, the layer of cementum at the respective downward aspects of the root was carefully removed using a diamond bur until the underlying dentin was entirely exposed
Receives: Procedure: tooth block

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical and radiographic assessment of alveolar bone width following autogenous tooth roots augmentation.

    Measured: 6 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Histological analysis of remodeled autogenous bone roots 4 months following horizontal ridge augmentation. Histological analysis of remodeled autogenous bone roots 4 months following horizontal ridge augmentation.

    Measured: 6 months postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing tooth block and autogenous bone block in people with Augmentation, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 inclusion and 1 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 22 Jul 2020. 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 Egypt. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical and radiographic assessment of alveolar bone width following autogenous tooth roots augmentation. (time frame: 6 months postoperatively). 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 22 Jul 2020.
