What is being measured

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

  1. Change in postoperative pain

    persistence , relief , or exacerbation of pain using visual analogue scale for pain score

    Measured: 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, every 3 months for 12 months

  2. Change in swelling

    appearance of periapical swelling or facial swelling after the clinical procedures (Binary outcome: Yes/No)

    Measured: 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, every 3 months for 12 months

  3. Change in Mobility

    appearance of teeth mobility after the clinical procedures (record of periodontal pocket depth)

    Measured: 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, every 3 months for 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. calcific like bridge

    measure of the calcific bridge thickness using CBCT

    Measured: 12 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing portland cement, Mineral trioxide aggregate and Biodentine in people with Irreversible Pulpitis, run by Fayoum 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 2 inclusion and 6 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 5 Mar 2021. 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?

Change in postoperative pain (time frame: 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, every 3 months for 12 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04784949, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 5 Mar 2021.
