What participants receive

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

  • Lidocaine 2%Drug

    Also called A

    The child will be injected with lidocaine 2% and After 10 minutes the treatment will be completed , Pain during injection and treatment will be assessed using the FLACC scale and pain after injection and treatment will be evaluated using the Wong-Baker FACES pain rating scale

  • Articaine 4%Drug

    Also called B

    The child will be injected with 4% Articaine and After 10 minutes the treatment will be completed , Pain during injection and treatment will be assessed using the FLACC scale and face scale

What is being measured

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

  1. dental pain

    evaluated by outcome assessor using the Faces, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability Behavioral Pain Rating Scale ( FLACC scale ) ( a behavioral pain assessment scale which has five criteria face, legs, activity, cry, consolability ,which are each assigned a score of 0, 1 or 2.Total score of scale is summed in range 0 to 10, where: 0=relaxed and comfortable; 1-3=mild discomfort; 4-6=moderate pain; 7-10=severe pain)..

    Measured: during the injection of local anesthesia

  2. dental pain

    self assessment pain by the children using Wong-Baker faces pain rating scale (a scale shows a series of faces ranging from a happy face at 0, or "no hurt", to a crying face at 10,which represents "hurts like the worst pain imaginable" )

    Measured: Immediately after the injection of local anesthesia

  3. dental pain

    evaluated by outcome assessor using the Faces, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability Behavioral Pain Rating Scale ( FLACC scale ) ( a behavioral pain assessment scale which has five criteria face, legs, activity, cry, consolability ,which are each assigned a score of 0, 1 or 2.Total score of scale is summed in range 0 to 10, where: 0=relaxed and comfortable; 1-3=mild discomfort; 4-6=moderate pain; 7-10=severe pain)..

    Measured: during treatment

  4. dental pain

    self assessment pain by the children using Wong-Baker faces pain rating scale (a scale shows a series of faces ranging from a happy face at 0, or "no hurt", to a crying face at 10,which represents "hurts like the worst pain imaginable" )

    Measured: Immediately after the treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Lidocaine 2% and Articaine 4% in people with Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation, run by Latakia University at 1 site in Syria.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 15 Jul 2022. 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 Syria. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

dental pain (time frame: during the injection of local anesthesia). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05200884, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 Jul 2022.
