About this study

Official title: Retrospective Clinical Evaluation of RMGI/GI Class V Restorations Placed by Dental Students

Brief Summary: Retrospective study to evaluate the clinical performance of two restorative materials - glass-ionomer (GI) and resin-modified glass-ionomer (RMGI) materials - in Class V carious and non-carious cervical lesions restored by dental students.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical performance of glass-ionomer (GI) and resin-modified glass-ionomer (RMGI) materials in Class V carious and non-carious cervical lesions restored by dental students. Ninety-six (96) restorations performed with either GI (Fuji IX) (n=39) or RMGI (Fuji II) (n=57) were evaluated using the modified USPHS (United States Public Health Systems) criteria by two independent investigators at two follow-up evaluations (two years apart). The Fisher statistical test was used to compare USPHS criteria and examine significant differences by setting p<0.05 for statistical significance and the Kaplan-Meier algorithm was used to calculate the survival probability.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-Operative Sensitivity

    Absence of sensitivity to pressure, cold or hot temperature on the teeth restored (checked verbally by inquiring the patient about the presence or absence of pain in the presence of stimuli)

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Secondary Caries

    No visual evidence of dark, deep discolouration or cavitation adjacent to the restoration (visually and manually checked with the tip of a dental hand instrument - explorer)

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Anatomic Form

    Restoration's anatomy is continuous with existing anatomic form of remaining tooth structure (checked visually with a dental intra-oral mirror)

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Color match

    No difference between the tooth and restoration colour (checked visually with a dental intra-oral mirror)

    Measured: 2 years

  5. Surface Roughness

    Surface texture of the restoration is similar to tooth structure (manually checked with the tip of a dental hand instrument - explorer)

    Measured: 2 years

  6. Marginal Discolouration

    No visual evidence of dark discolouration adjacent to the margins of the restoration (checked visually with a dental intra-oral mirror)

    Measured: 2 years

  7. Marginal Integrity

    Restoration closely adapted to the tooth. No crevice visible (manually checked with the tip of a dental hand instrument - explorer)

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Material, Dental, run by Western University, Canada at 1 site in Canada.

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 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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?

Post-Operative Sensitivity (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04401618, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 11 May 2021.
