About this study

Official title: Comparative Evaluation of Outcomes of Single Sitting Scaling and Root Planing (SRP) vs Supra-gingival Scaling Followed by Sub-gingival Scaling and Root Planing After One Week: a Split-mouth Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial

The primary course of periodontal treatment is non-surgical periodontal therapy followed by surgical therapy, if required, with an aim to arrest ongoing inflammatory periodontal destruction along with reconstruction of lost apparatus if possible. There is no protocol established for completing scaling and root planing (SRP) in patients with generalized advanced periodontitis. In some cases SRP is completed in single sitting whereas in other cases supragingival scaling is followed by subgingival SRP in the next appointment. It is hypothesized that presence of reparative components near the base of the pocket could result in better treatment outcomes after scaling and root planning done in single sitting when compared to supragingival scaling followed by sub-gingival scaling and root planning after one week.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to clinically compare the outcomes of scaling and root planing (SRP) completed in single sitting vs supragingival scaling followed by subgingival scaling and root planing after one week in Stage II and Stage III generalised periodontitis patients.

OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the improvement in clinical parameters viz. bleeding on pocket probing (BOPP), pocket probing depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on marginal probing (BOMP), gingival marginal position (GMP) and gingival recession (GR) by single sitting scaling and root planning versus supragingival scaling followed by subgingival scaling and root planing after one week in Stage II and Stage III generalised periodontitis patients.
  2. To assess the correlation between availability of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) at the base of the pocket and treatment outcomes.

SETTING: Department of Periodontology and Oral Implantology, PGIDS, Rohtak, Haryana.

STUDY DESIGN: Split-mouth Randomized controlled clinical trial.

TIME FRAME: 12 months

POPULATION: Systemically healthy patients with Stage II and Stage III Generalised Periodontitis with more than 20 teeth present.

SAMPLE SIZE: To be able to detect a clinically meaningful difference of 1mm and 10% improvement in PPD and BOPP respectively between groups, assuming an effect size of 0.85 with a power of 80% and 5% level of significance, a minimum sample size of 22 patients are needed in each group. Accounting for a 20% drop out rate, 27 patients are needed in each group.

METHODOLOGY: Patients with stage II and III generalised periodontitis will be recruited from the outpatient Department of Periodontology, PGIDS, Rohtak. Patients fulfilling the eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study after obtaining an informed written consent. A split-mouth design will be chosen using two contra-lateral quadrants per group being randomly assigned into test (single sitting SRP) and control (supragingival scaling followed by subgingival scaling after a week) group for each patient using a chit-method.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SCALING AND ROOT PLANING (SRP)in single sitting and SCALING AND ROOT PLANING (SRP)in two sittings in people with Periodontitis, run by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak at 1 site in India.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 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 India. 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?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in bleeding on pocket probing (BOPP) (time frame: 6 MONTHS). The study lists 2 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 NCT05449964, 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 28 Sep 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
