Trial summary

Composite is one of the common aesthetic restorations used in the dentistry. With the advancements in the biomaterials the application of the composites has broadened. However due to various factors the composites are associated with dental sensitivity. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Three Commercially Available Desensitizers in Reducing Post-operative Sensitivity Following Composite Restorations: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Composite is one of the common aesthetic restorations used in the dentistry. With the advancements in the biomaterials the application of the composites has broadened. However due to various factors the composites are associated with dental sensitivity. Hence in our study we evaluate and compare the effectiveness of three desensitizing agents in reducing the post-treatment sensitivity for class I composite restoration.

Read the detailed description

A double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted in which 80 subjects requiring class I cavity were randomly assigned to 4 groups of 20 patients each: Group C (Control group), Group GL (Gluma group), Group SF (Shield Force Plus group), and Group TC (Telio CS group). The class 1 cavity was prepared and after etching, the desensitizers were applied (except in the control group) and later composite restoration was done. The postoperative pain/sensitivity level was recorded according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) on intake of cold drinks; intake of hot drinks; and intake of sugar for different periods of time.

What participants receive

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

  • Gluma desensitiserCombination product

    Gluma desensitiser was used before restoration.

  • Sheildforce Plus desensitiserCombination product

    Sheildforce Plus desensitiser was used before restoration.

  • Telio CS desensitiserCombination product

    Telio CS desensitiser was used before restoration.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of application of the desensitisers on post operative sensitivity on the day of composite restoration on application of different stimuli like (i) Intake of cold drinks; (ii) Intake of hot drinks; and (iii) Intake of sugar.

    The patients were given a questionnaire and instructed to record any postoperative pain/sensitivity level according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for restored tooth on the day of restoration on taking cold drinks, hot drinks, and sugar.

    Measured: Within 24 hours

  2. Effect of application of the desensitisers on post operative sensitivity one week after the composite restoration on application of different stimuli like (i) Intake of cold drinks; (ii) Intake of hot drinks; and (iii) Intake of sugar.

    The patients were given a questionnaire and instructed to record any postoperative pain/sensitivity level according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for restored tooth one week after the restoration on taking cold drinks, hot drinks, and sugar.

    Measured: After one week

  3. Effect of application of the desensitisers on post operative sensitivity one month after the composite restoration on application of different stimuli like (i) Intake of cold drinks; (ii) Intake of hot drinks; and (iii) Intake of sugar.

    The patients were given a questionnaire and instructed to record any postoperative pain/sensitivity level according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for restored tooth one month after the restoration on taking cold drinks, hot drinks, and sugar.

    Measured: after one month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gluma desensitiser, Sheildforce Plus desensitiser and Telio CS desensitiser in people with Sensitivity, run by University of Jazan at 1 site in Saudi Arabia.

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 5 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 Aug 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 Saudi Arabia. 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?

Effect of application of the desensitisers on post operative sensitivity on the day of composite restoration on application of different stimuli like (i) Intake of cold drinks; (ii) Intake of hot drinks; and (iii) Intake of sugar. (time frame: Within 24 hours). 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?
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 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
