About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Er: YSGG Laser on Oral Biofilm Removal From Implant Surface and Its Biological Response to Periodontal Tissues in Treatment of Peri-implantitis (An Ex Vivo Study)

This study will be carried out to evaluate the efficacy of Er: YSGG laser on oral biofilm removal from implant surface in various peri-implant defect morphology in the treatment of peri-implantitis as a primary objective.

To assess the morphological changes and the biological response (biocompatibility) of implant surface after Er: YSGG laser therapy through Profilometer analysis and cell culture process to detect attachment, differentiation, and mineralization of Isolated rat Bone Marrow Mesenchymal stem cells (rBMMSCs) respectively as secondary objectives.

This study will be carried out to evaluate the efficacy of Er: YSGG laser on oral biofilm removal from implant surface in various peri-implant defect morphology in the treatment of peri-implantitis as a primary objective.

To assess the morphological changes and the biological response (biocompatibility) of implant surface after Er: YSGG laser therapy through Profilometer analysis and cell culture process to detect attachment, differentiation, and mineralization of Isolated rat Bone Marrow Mesenchymal stem cells (rBMMSCs) respectively as secondary objectives.

The study was designed as an Ex Vivo study. Four periodontally and systemically healthy volunteers of both gender are included in this study for the formation of in vivo plaque biofilm. Each volunteer will wear a hard resin splint carrying six rough (machined implant; 3.3mm diameter, 8mm length) for 4 days to accumulate dental plaque naturally on the titanium surfaces of the implants.

Therefore, 24 implants will be assessed for Er: YSGG laser therapy in different bone defect simulators.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Er: YSGG laser and no therapy in people with Peri-Implantitis, run by Ain Shams 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 21 Nov 2023. 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?

visual inspection of the oral biofilm removal efficacy by image analysis software (Adobe Photoshop (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 NCT05137821, 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 21 Nov 2023.
