Study groups in NCT04484844
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Shield Force Plus VarnishExperimentalShield force plus (SFP), Self-reinforcing (SR) monomer technology supplied in the form of one component self-etching light-cured dental adhesive, which is characterized by an SR monomer component that penetrates the tooth substrate. Multi-point interactions with apatite calcium and three-dimensional cross-linking occur reactions.it forms a thin even, hard coating on the tooth surface that gives the tooth substrate a superior binding power.
Receives: Drug: TOKUYAMA SHIELD FORCE PLUS
Sodium Fluoride varnishActive comparatorTopical application of varnish fluoride (sodium fluoride NaF) effect on exposed dentine as a desensitizing agent, the varnish fluoride process is caused by the reaction between NaF and calcium ions resulting in calcium fluoride crystals being deposited on the openings of the dentinal tubules that decrease pain.
Receives: Drug: Sodium Fluoride 5% Dental Varnish

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing TOKUYAMA SHIELD FORCE PLUS and Sodium Fluoride 5% Dental Varnish in people with Dentin Hypersensitivity and Dentin Desensitizing Agents, 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 24 Jul 2020. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Contact Feras Mustafa Salem, BSc (00201008471183, feras.fares@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dentin Hypersensitivity (time frame: Pre-intervention). The study lists 5 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 24 Jul 2020.
