Trial summary

The goal of this study was to compare, clinical and histologically, the use of the suine collagen matrix (Mucograft Seal [MS], Geisthlich®) and the free gingival graft (FGG) for the alveolar sealing after inserted bone graft biomaterial. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical and Histological Assessment of Free Gingival Graft or Collagen Matrix for Socket Sealing After Bone Grafting: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

The goal of this study was to compare, clinical and histologically, the use of the suine collagen matrix (Mucograft Seal [MS], Geisthlich®) and the free gingival graft (FGG) for the alveolar sealing after inserted bone graft biomaterial. It was included 18 patients with tooth referred to extraction (maxilar incisives, canines, or pre-molars) which were randomly divided in 2 groups, according to the material for alveolus sealing: control (FGG) and test (MS). After the minimally traumatic extraction, all the alveoli were filled with bovine mineral matrix (Bio-Oss®), and the material for alveolar sealing were positioned and stabilized with sutures. The follow-up (clinical and photographic) happened on the immediate post-operatory period, and with 3, 7, 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 days. After 120 days, before implant placement, tissues samples were obtained with a 3.5mm punch scalpel for histological analysis. Qualitative information related to the patient's perception considering the treatment were collected.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CollagenExperimentalThis group received a bone graft (xenograft) and had the socket covered with a collagen membrane, in order to protect the bone graft inserted and seal the socket.

Free gingival graftExperimentalThis group received a bone graft (xenograft) biomaterial and had the socket covered with a free gingival graft material, in order to protect the bone graft inserted and seal the socket.
Receives: Procedure: Socket preservation

What is being measured

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

  1. Radiographic and clinical analysis

    Socket preservation with xenograft biomaterial and another one to seal it (FGG or collagen membrane).

    Radiographic analysis - PA (periapical x-rays) comparing groups and periods of the follow-up. It was performed descriptive comparative analysis.

    Clinical evaluation - bleeding on probing (dichotomic analysis), ISQ (torque achieved - Osstell), qualitative analysis (questionnaire with 8 questions), and subjective appraisal of the soft tissue healing (according to the period of evaluation).

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Histological analysis - Gingiva

    Gingival thickness obtained from the local tissue was evaluated through histological analysis (optical binocular microscope); assessment of the epithelial and connective layers (micrometers).

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Socket preservation in people with Socket Sealing and Free Gingival Graft, run by Universidade Salgado de Oliveira at 1 site in United States.

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 11 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 7 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 United States. 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?

Radiographic and clinical analysis (time frame: 6 months). 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 7 Jul 2022.
