Who may be able to join

  • Males or females ≥ 21 years of age
  • Able to provide informed consent
  • Good general oral health (no active periodontal disease, absence of hopeless teeth, absence of active caries, absence of acute infections)

About this study

Official title: A Pilot RCT Study Comparing Dimensional Alterations After Socket Grafting With Xenograft Versus Allograft

To compare dimensional changes in extraction socket of single rooted teeth, 6 months post extraction, when grafted with xenograft versus allograft.

Read the detailed description

AIM To compare dimensional changes in extraction socket of single rooted teeth, 6 months post extraction, when grafted with xenograft versus allograft.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE

Horizontal and vertical dimensional changes of extraction sockets as evaluated in a CBCT scan immediately post extraction and 6 months post extraction when grafted with xenograft versus allograft.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE

  1. Difference in horizontal dimensional changes in xenograft and allograft groups as measured intra-operatively after extraction and at re- entry 6 months post extraction.
  2. Difference in vertical dimensional changes in xenograft and allograft groups as measured intra-operatively after extraction and at re- entry 6 months post extraction.
  3. Difference in histologic analysis of bone biopsy cores taken in xenograft and allograft groups at 6 months re-entry from osteotomy site.

Difference in newly regenerated supracrestal bone height and volume will be measured directly from the segmented images from MicroCT.

NULL HYPOTHESIS

There is no difference between the two groups for any of the parameters evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Horizontal and vertical dimensional changes noted on Cone Beam Computed Tomography

    Dimensional changes measured from a Cone Beam Computed Tomography immediately post extraction and grafting and 6 months post extraction

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Horizontal dimensional changes measured intra-operatively using a Periodontal Probe

    Dimensional changes of the crest measured intra-operatively immediately post extraction and grafting and compared to 6 months post extraction. Measurements will be made using a periodontal probe from the Mid-buccal to the mid-palatal/mid-lingual aspect of the ridge using a surgical stent

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Vertical dimensional changes measured intra-operatively using a periodontal probe and stent

    Dimensional changes of the crest measured intra-operatively immediately post extraction and grafting and compared to 6 months post extraction. Vertical measurements will be made using a periodontal probe and a patient specific stent. The probe will help measure changes in height of buccal and palatal / lingual plate at the center of the ridge.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Histologic analysis of bone biopsy cores

    Histologic analysis of the bone biopsy cores taken from the xenograft or allograft grafted extraction sockets

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bone graft in people with Tooth Loss, run by UConn Health at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Nov 2023. 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 United States. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Horizontal and vertical dimensional changes noted on Cone Beam Computed Tomography (time frame: 6 months). 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 28 Nov 2023.
