About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a New In-office and Domiciliary Ozonized Gel for the Management of Periodontal Disease

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of non-surgical periodontal therapy with supportive home oral care for the treatment of periodontal disease.

Patients with bilateral periodontal pathological sites will undergo professional dental hygiene with ultrasonic handpiece (Piezon EMS with PerioSlim inserts) followed by manual instrumentation with Gracey curettes and application of erythritol Airflow powders. Then, patients will be randomly divided into two groups according to a split-mouth design: the Control Group will undergo a split-mouth application of chlorhexidine gel 1% for quadrants 1/3 (or 2/4), while for the Trial Group Ozoral Pro for quadrants 2/4 (or 1/3) will be used. Patients will use the products at home with one daily application for the following 14 days after the visits. The Trial Group will use Ozoral Gel for home applications.

The following indexes will be assessed at baseline, T1 (1 month), T2 (3 months) and T3 (6 months): recession, PPD, BoP %, CAL, PCR %. Contextually, the application of the two gels will be performed.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of non-surgical periodontal therapy with supportive home oral care for the treatment of periodontal disease comparing chlorhexidine and ozone gels.

Patients with bilateral periodontal pathological sites will undergo professional dental hygiene with ultrasonic handpiece (Piezon EMS with PerioSlim inserts) followed by manual instrumentation with Gracey curettes and application of erythritol Airflow powders. Then, patients will be randomly divided into two groups according to a split-mouth design:

  • Control Group: application of chlorhexidine gel 1% for quadrants 1/3 (or 2/4)
  • Trial Group: administration of Ozoral Pro for quadrants 2/4 (or 1/3).

Patients will use the products at home with one daily application for the following 14 days after the visits. The Trial Group will use Ozoral Gel for home applications.

The following indexes will be assessed at baseline, T1 (1 month), T2 (3 months) and T3 (6 months): recession, PPD, BoP %, CAL, PCR %. Contextually, the application of the two gels will be performed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in R - Gingival recession

    Distance (in mm) between the gingival margin and the amelo-cemental junction.

    Measured: Time Frame: baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months after baseline

  2. Change in PPD - Probing Pocket Depth

    Evaluation (in mm) of the depth of the gingival sulcus, through a millimeter periodontal probe; it is detected from the gingival margin to the bottom of the gingival sulcus or periodontal pocket, evaluated at 6 sites.

    Measured: Time Frame: baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months after baseline

  3. Change in Bleeding on Probing (BOP%)

    Dichotomous scoring (yes/no) of bleeding sites

    Measured: Time Frame: baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months after baseline

  4. Change in Plaque Control Record (PCR%)

    % assessment of the amount of plaque on dental surfaces; it is detected on 4 surfaces: distal, mesial, vestibular, lingual / palatal. The number of sites with plaque is divided by the total number of sites available in the mouth and multiplied by 100. Results indicate the index as a percentage.

    Measured: Time Frame: baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months after baseline

  5. Change in Dental mobility (Miller, 1985)

    Scoring criteria

    • Grade 0: oscillation within 0.2 mm; the teeth move naturally and there are no mobility problems;
    • Grade I: horizontal mobility of the tooth from 0.2 to 1 mm;
    • Grade II: horizontal mobility of the tooth from 1 to 2 mm;
    • Grado III: horizontal mobility equal to or greater than 3 mm or vertical mobility of the tooth.

    Measured: Time Frame: baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months after baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chlorhexidine and Ozoral gels in people with Periodontal Diseases, run by University of Pavia at 1 site in Italy.

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 6 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 20 Oct 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 Italy. 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 R - Gingival recession (time frame: Time Frame: baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months after baseline). The study lists 5 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 20 Oct 2022.
