Trial summary

Many patients suffer from tooth substance loss as a result of fracture or decay of teeth situated in the esthetic zone. This might commonly occur with car accidents, sport injuries, falls or even fistfights. Read more about this study

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 20 to 40 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients at 20-40 years old and have no history of periodontal disease. (periodontally healthy patients).
  • Single rooted teeth with adjacent intact or restored neighboring teeth, more than one tooth may be included in the same arch.

Who cannot join

  • Badly broken-down teeth with active signs of infection.

  • Teeth with severely tapered roots..
  • Diabetic patients, assessed by measuring glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Patients with an HbA1c level greater than 8 will be excluded.

About this study

Official title: Soft Tissue Outcomes Of Badly Broken-Down Teeth Treated With Orthodontic Extrusion Compared With Immediate Implant Placement: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Many patients suffer from tooth substance loss as a result of fracture or decay of teeth situated in the esthetic zone. This might commonly occur with car accidents, sport injuries, falls or even fistfights.

For those patients, most of the crown is lost and only the root remains, so there is no enough ferrule in order to restore the tooth with a crown.

Read more

The most common treatment for those patients is immediate single-tooth implant. However, some problems may arise such as: high treatment expenses, the need for bone augmentation, the refill of the papilla to its normal position may be questionable in some implant cases, young growing patients, apprehensive patients, dental facilities and rural areas lacking cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) machines.

Accordingly, orthodontic extrusion may be an alternative attempt to preserve the tooth by traction of the remaining root to create a sufficient ferrule effect to restore the tooth.

What participants receive

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

  • Orthodontic extrusionProcedure or surgery

    An orthodontic attachment will be bonded to the core of the experimental tooth. Orthodontic brackets "American Orthodontics Roth prescription. 0.022" slot" will be bonded to the adjacent teeth. A passive rectangular stainless steel wire (0.016X0.022") will be inserted in the adjacent teeth with a step down and a coil at the site of the experimental tooth.

    Orthodontic extrusion will start using a light overlay wire of 0.012" NiTi and then continued by elastic chains/ threads extending between the attachment on the tooth and the stabilizing wire. The patient is followed up for appliance activation every 3-4 weeks and extrusion is performed until an adequate ferrule effect of 2 mm is present all around the tooth circumference (in addition to the biologic width). So the extrusion is completed when the tooth is 4-4.5 mm from the alveolar bone crest as judged by periapical radiographs.

  • Immediate implant placementProcedure or surgery

    The patient is anaesthetized. Atraumatic extraction of the badly broken down teeth will be performed using peroiotome. Luxation should be done mesiodistally and not buccolingually, to avoid damaging the buccal plate. After tooth removal, a curette is used to confirm that the location of the buccal plate is intact. Standard drilling procedures are performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Then the implant is placed in the prepared site. Temporization should be done using composite 3M Filtek Z250 XT material. Finally, a porcelain fused to zirconia crown will be performed.
