Trial summary

Implant rehabilitation is a successful treatment option for edentulous patients. Decreasing bone loss around implants is an important target for all implantologists. It has been shown that pathological forces, such as bruxism, may in fact result in bone loss and eventual implant failure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Change in Biting Force After Botilinium Toxin Injection and Its Effect on Peri Implant Bone Changes

Implant rehabilitation is a successful treatment option for edentulous patients. Decreasing bone loss around implants is an important target for all implantologists. It has been shown that pathological forces, such as bruxism, may in fact result in bone loss and eventual implant failure.

Botilinium Toxin is a material of many clinical uses. Beside its cosmetic applications, it has been used in the treatment of masseter muscle hypertrophy.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of botilinium toxin injection on biting forces, and its ultimate effect on peri-implant bone changes.

What participants receive

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

  • Botox Injectable ProductDrug

    Botox is a well known neurotoxin that is derived from the bacterium clostridium botulinium. Its therapeutic applications are variable and well documented, alongside its cosmetic applications. There are seven known serotypes of Botox, from A to G, but only two types; A \&B, are available for medical and cosmetic uses.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Botox Injectable Product in people with Bruxism, run by British University In Egypt 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 1 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 25 Jun 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 biting force (time frame: 12 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 25 Jun 2021.
