About this study

Official title: Comparison of Saddle Contoured Metal Matrix and Pre-contoured Self-adhesive Matrix in Composite Resin Class II Restorations

Various procedures and techniques have been devised in an attempt to generate tighter and more anatomic proximal contacts with class II composite restorations. The investigators study focuses on using Saddle contoured metal matrix and pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix .Moreover, the investigators have attempted to study proximal tightness and proximal contours of composite restoration as separate variables.

Read the detailed description

A total of 60 posterior teeth with proximal cavity to be assigned on alternate basis in two equal groups. Group A teeth received the Saddle contoured metal matrix and group B pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix after cavity preparation.

All teeth to be restored with Nano hybrid composite restorative material. Outcome of proximal contours and contact tightness is determined by a blinded assessor just after the restoration.

Being tested
Saddle contoured metal matrix, Pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix

What participants receive

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

  • Saddle contoured metal matrix, Pre-contoured self-adhesive matrixDevice

    Saddle contoured metal matrix placed with the small clipper. The -contoured self-adhesive matrix has self adhesive ability.

Study groups in NCT05414656
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group A : Saddle contoured metal matrixExperimentalThe prepared teeth received the Saddle contoured metal matrix. The saddle clip of matrix connect the band and secured around prepared cavity wall. The anatomical wedge placed into the gingival embrasure to maintain the height of gingival floor and ensure the optimal adaptation of the matrix band in the cervical region.
Receives: Device: Saddle contoured metal matrix, Pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix
Group B:pre-contoured self-adhesive matrixActive comparatorTeeth received the Pre-contoured self adhesive matrix with anatomical wedges. The adhesive end of band closed around the prepared cavity.
Receives: Device: Saddle contoured metal matrix, Pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix

What is being measured

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

  1. proximal contacts tightness

    The tightness of the proximal contact area resulting from Saddle contoured metal matrix and pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix . It was measured using a nine inch long nylon dental floss (Oral-B, USA).

    Measured: immediately after procedure

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Proximal contours and overhangs

    To be examined clinically with an explorer and mouth mirror and then on the radiograph by the blinded co investigator.

    Measured: immediately after procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Saddle contoured metal matrix, Pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix in people with Class II Caries in Posterior Teeth, run by Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jun 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 Pakistan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Nosheen Sarwar, BDS (+923088895652, nosheensarwar48@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

proximal contacts tightness (time frame: immediately after procedure). 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 NCT05414656, 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 10 Jun 2022.
