About this study

Official title: Clinical and Cost-effectiveness of Fluoride Varnish Versus Resin Based Sealant in Newly Erupted Permanent Molars in Group of Egyptian Children: A Randomized Clinical Trial(Part 2).

The aim of the present study is determine the cost-effectiveness, clinical- effectiveness, acceptability and adverse effect of resin sealants versus the fluoride varnish for the prevention of dental caries on newly erupted permanent molars.

Read the detailed description

A Cochrane systematic reviews found low quality evidence supporting Current practice guidelines that recommend the use of Resin based fissure sealant over Fluoride varnish in prevent dental caries. However, they did not address the cost-effectiveness, A more recent systematic review and meta-analysis concluded that no statistical significance difference between Resin based fissure sealant and Fluoride varnish with a high-quality evidence in prevent dental caries.

This trial will measure cost effectiveness and clinical effectiveness for resin fissure sealant and fluoride varnish.

Being tested
Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride)., Resin based fissure sealant (3M Clinpro Sealant)

What participants receive

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

  • Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride).Device

    Also called 5% sodium fluoride varnish 3M

    5% sodium fluoride Varnish is a fluoride varnish which is applied to tooth surfaces

  • Resin based fissure sealant (3M Clinpro Sealant)Device

    Also called Resin based fissure sealant 3M

    teeth will be isolated with cotton rolls and saliva ejector than etching for pits and fissure sealant

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical-effectiveness (will be measured with DFS

    Clinical-effectiveness (will be measured by DFS) Clinical effectiveness (continuous outcome will be measured with DFS D Decayed in permanent molar Filling in permanent molar S Surface

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Cost-effectiveness (will be measured with Incremental cost effective ratio ICER

    Cost-effectiveness (will be measured with Cost-effectiveness will be calculated based on the following measures:- Economic measures (continuous outcome, (money) will be measured with Calculate The total cost of each of FV and FS in every visit) . Clinical effectiveness (continuous outcome will be measured with DFS.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Fluoride varnish (3M Clinpro White Varnish 5% sodium fluoride). and Resin based fissure sealant (3M Clinpro Sealant) in people with Cost Effectiveness, run by Cairo University.

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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact samah Ahmed, B.sc (00201112000386, samah.ahmed@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical-effectiveness (will be measured with DFS (time frame: Through study completion, an average of one year). 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?
