About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Effects of Articaine and Bupivacaine in Impacted Third Molar Tooth Surgery

Articaine is a common local anesthetic used in oral surgery and belongs to the amide group of it has fast onset with little side effects. Bupivacaine is preferred in prolonged surgical procedures with its long duration of action and residual analgesic effect.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the anesthetic, analgesic, hemodynamic effects of 4% articaine and 0.5% bupivacaine in extraction of impacted mandibular third molar teeth in intraoperative and postoperative periods. Hemodynamic parameters, onset of anesthetic action, total amount, intraoperative comfort, intraoperative bleeding, duration of postoperative anesthesia and analgesia, rescue analgesic use, maximum incisal opening and postoperative pain at 6th, 12th, 24th, 48th and 72th hours and 7th day using a visual analogue scale be evaluated.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ArticaineActive comparatorAll surgeries were performed by the same surgeon and monitored by the same person. 4 % articaine with 1:200.000 epinephrine was administered to the patients in regional block of the inferior alveolar nerve technique at the first surgery. At the second intervention, patients received the other anesthetic solution which was not used at the first intervention. 1.5 cc of the solution was used to anesthetize the inferior alveolar and lingual nerve and the remaining 0.5 cc was infiltrated to anesthetize the buccal nerve.

At the second intervention, patients received the other anesthetic solution which was not used at the first intervention. 1.5 cc of the solution was used to anesthetize the inferior alveolar and lingual nerve and the remaining 0.5 cc was infiltrated to anesthetize the buccal nerve.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hemodynamic Changes

    Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, cardiac rate and blood oxygen saturation level were monitored using a patient monitor before beginning of the surgery (T1), 1 min later following the anesthesia (T2) and immediately after the surgery (T3).

    Measured: 60 minutes

  2. Postoperative pain

    Postoperative pain was evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10 and patients were instructed to complete the scale in 6th, 12th, 24th, 48th and 72th hours and 7th day postoperatively.

    Measured: 1 week

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Maximum mouth opening

    Maximal incisal opening (MIO) measured with ruler preoperatively and at the 7th day.

    Measured: 7days

  2. Duration of Surgery

    Duration of the surgery, which was determined by the time between the first incision to last suture was recorded.

    Measured: 60 minutes

  3. Onset of anesthetic action

    Onset of anesthetic action was be determined by the first sign of numbness of the ipsilateral lower lip, tongue and alveolar mucosa,

    Measured: 10 minutes

  4. Operation time

    The time between the first incision and the last suture was evaluated as operation time.

    Measured: 60 minutes

  5. Quality of the anesthesia

    The quality of the anesthesia was evaluated by the surgeon which was based on a 3- point category rating scale: Grade 1: no discomfort reported by the patient during the surgery; Grade 2: any discomfort reported by patient during the surgery, without the need of additional anesthesia; Grade 3: any discomfort reported by patient during the surgery, with the need of additional anesthesia.

    Measured: 60 minutes

  6. Intraoperative bleeding

    Intraoperative bleeding was rated by the surgeon which based on a 3-point category rating scale as: Grade 1: minimal bleeding; Grade 2: normal bleeding; Grade 3: excessive bleeding.

    Measured: 60 minutes

  7. Surgical difficulty

    Surgical difficulty was determined by modified Parant scale as follows:

    Grade 1: extraction with forceps only; Grade 2: extraction by osteotomy; Grade 3: extraction by osteotomy and coronal section; Grade 4: complex procedures (root section).

    Measured: 60 minutes

  8. Duration of the postoperative anesthesia

    Duration of the postoperative anesthesia be determined by the absence of sensibility of ipsilateral lower lip, tongue and alveolar mucosa and duration of the postoperative analgesia determined by the time from the end of the operation to the first naproxen sodium intake.

    Measured: 6 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Impacted tooth surgery in people with Impacted Third Molar Tooth, run by Kocaeli University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 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 27 Nov 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Hemodynamic Changes (time frame: 60 minutes). The study lists 2 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 27 Nov 2020.
