Trial summary

The aim of this study is to test the hyaluronic acid hydrogel impact on the healing acceleration of xenogenic bone substitutes used in ridge preservation. Following tooth extraction, bone particles are mixed with the hyaluronic acid gel and grafted in the tooth socket. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Hyaluronic Acid Effect on Xenogenic Bone Substitutes Healing During Ridge Preservations: A Radiological and Histomorphometric Study

The aim of this study is to test the hyaluronic acid hydrogel impact on the healing acceleration of xenogenic bone substitutes used in ridge preservation.

Following tooth extraction, bone particles are mixed with the hyaluronic acid gel and grafted in the tooth socket. at the implant placement phase, a cone beam computer assisted tomography file is recorded in order to compare it with the baseline and a biopsy to evaluate the histological consequences.

Being tested
Ridge preservation: Tooth extration and immediat bone grafting in the socket
Keywords
tooth extraction, ridge preservation, hyaluronic acid, dental implant
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Ridge preservation: Tooth extration and immediat bone grafting in the socketProcedure or surgery

    Following the tooth extraction, the socket is filled with a mixture of xenogenic bone and hyaluronic acid and sealed with an epithelio-connective arrested from the maxillary palate

Study groups in NCT04377256
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Radiological assessementExperimentalTwo CBCTs were recorded and compared, one at the baseline and the other at 4 months post-op. The bone resorption was quantified and analyzed using ITK-SNAP software
Receives: Procedure: Ridge preservation: Tooth extration and immediat bone grafting in the socket
Histomorphometric analysisExperimentalDuring implant placement (4 months after the bone grafting), a bone biopsy is collected and stained with several colorants to analyze the biological bone healing
Receives: Procedure: Ridge preservation: Tooth extration and immediat bone grafting in the socket

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiological assessement of the boe resorption

    the baseline if the CBCT is compared to the 4 months post-op to assess the bone resorption

    Measured: 4 months

  2. Histomorphometric analysis

    During implant placement, a bone biopsy is harvested and stained with different colorants to assess microscopically the biological healing

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ridge preservation: Tooth extration and immediat bone grafting in the socket in people with Bone Resorption and Tooth Loss, run by Saint-Joseph University at 2 sites in Lebanon.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Lebanon. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Radiological assessement of the boe resorption (time frame: 4 months). The study lists 2 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 3 Apr 2025.
