Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The participants in this research will be drawn from the RTWP (Radboud Tooth Wear Project) patient sample which consists of nearly 200 tooth wear patients. Patients are included through dentist referral or of their own volition. Out of this population, 55 patients are managed non-restoratively, because they do not experience problems in regards to their tooth wear, and have no restorative treatment need in their perception

Who may be able to join

  • Generalized tooth wear
  • A minimum of three posterior teeth (premolars and molars) per quadrant
  • A maximum of one edentulous space in need for treatment, with a maximum span of one tooth-width

Who cannot join

  • ASA 4
  • Edentulous space has a span exceeding 1 tooth-width, or more than one space
  • Functional problems (mouth opening <5cm, Temporomandibular Dysfunction)
  • Severe periodontitis
  • Strong gag reflex

About this study

Official title: The Progression of Tooth Wear and Possible Risk Factors: a 7 Year Follow up

Prospective observational study with 7-year follow up. 55 patients are included with moderate to severe tooth wear, whereby through informed consent the decision was taking to monitor the patients. At the baseline and 1, 3 5, and the 7-year recall digital 3D scans will be made, which will be compared and subtracted.

Read the detailed description

Prospective observational study with 7-year follow up. 55 patients are included with moderate to severe tooth wear, whereby through informed consent the decision was taking to monitor the patients. At the baseline and the 5-year recall digital 3D scans will be made, which will be compared and subtracted. Per tooth the loss of material is measured in maximum loss in height (µm) and volume (mm3) per year, using best fit alignment and 3D subtraction.

The loss of tooth material will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and possible effects of jaw type, tooth type and cusp type will be analyzed using multi level regression models.

The use of index teeth will be analyzed.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04790110
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Studie A ESO - monitoringPatients that present themselves at the clinic through referral from their dentist with tooth wear, who have no request for help, receive a non-restorative 'counseling \& monitoring' strategy , in which appropriate preventive measures are recommended and wear and tear is monitored and recorded by periodically taking intra-oral photographs and 3D scans

What is being measured

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

  1. degree of dental wear in height

    µm per year

    Measured: 7 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The use of index teeth

    ICC correlation between ranking of patients according to whole dentition or index teeth

    Measured: 7 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tooth Wear and Reflux Acid, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 23 Feb 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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?

degree of dental wear in height (time frame: 7 years). 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 NCT04790110, which also lists 3 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 23 Feb 2024.
