Trial summary

Horizontal ridge augmentation using either cortical bone plate technique or cortico-cancellous block graft was the aim of the study. Bone quality was analyzed histomorphomterically, and horizontal dimensional changes were assessed using CBCT. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Cortical Bone Plate Versus Cortico-cancellous Block Graft for Horizontal Ridge Augmentation: Histomorphometric and Cone Beam Computed Tomography Study

Horizontal ridge augmentation using either cortical bone plate technique or cortico-cancellous block graft was the aim of the study. Bone quality was analyzed histomorphomterically, and horizontal dimensional changes were assessed using CBCT.

Being tested
Split-block technique, Cortico-cancellous block graft
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • Split-block techniqueProcedure or surgery

    Horizontal ridge augmentation using the split-block technique where a cortical bone plate harvested from the external oblique ridge was split in half and fixed at a distance from the atrophied ridge. Then autogenous bone chips were packed in the gap between the plate and the ridge.

  • Cortico-cancellous block graftProcedure or surgery

    Horizontal ridge augmentation using a cortico-cancellous block harvested from the chin of the mandible.

Study groups in NCT04567966
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cortical bone plateExperimentalA cortical plate was harvested from the external oblique ridge and split in half. Then one plate was fixed at a distance from the atrophied ridge and autogenous bone chips were used to fill the gap between the plate and the ridge.
Receives: Procedure: Split-block technique
Cortico-cancellous block graftActive comparatorA cortico-cancellous block graft was harvested from the symphysis of the mandible and fixed to the atrophied ridge.
Receives: Procedure: Cortico-cancellous block graft

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Split-block technique and Cortico-cancellous block graft in people with Horizontal Atrophy of Edentulous Alveolar Ridge, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Sep 2020. 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 Egypt. 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?

Evaluation of bone quality (time frame: 4 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 29 Sep 2020.
