What is being measured

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

  1. Plaque index measurements

    Plaque index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at the bonding session based on the following scale: 0 (no plaque), 1 (a film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth), 2 (moderate accumulation of soft deposits within the gingival pocket, or on the tooth and gingival margin which can be seen with the naked eye) and 3 (abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL).

    Measured: at the bonding session

  2. Plaque index measurements

    Plaque index (PI) was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at 6 months after bonding based on the following scale: 0 (no plaque), 1 (a film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth), 2 (moderate accumulation of soft deposits within the gingival pocket, or on the tooth and gingival margin which can be seen with the naked eye) and 3 (abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL).

    Measured: 6 months (T1) after bonding

  3. Plaque index measurements

    Plaque index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at 12 months after bonding based on the following scale: 0 (no plaque), 1 (a film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth), 2 (moderate accumulation of soft deposits within the gingival pocket, or on the tooth and gingival margin which can be seen with the naked eye) and 3 (abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL).

    Measured: 12 months (T2) after bonding

  4. Gingival index measurements

    Gingival index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at bonding session based on the following scale: 0 (absence of inflammation), 1 (mild inflammation), 2 (moderate inflammation) and 3 (severe inflammation).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL).

    Measured: at the bonding session

  6. Gingival index measurements

    Gingival index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at 12 months after bonding based on the following scale: 0 (absence of inflammation), 1 (mild inflammation), 2 (moderate inflammation) and 3 (severe inflammation).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL).

    Measured: 12 months (T2) after bonding

  7. Calculus index measurements

    Calculus index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at bonding session based on the following scale: 0 (no calculus present), 1 (supragingival calculus covering not more than one third of the exposed tooth surface), 2 (supragingival calculus covering more than one third but not more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or the presence of individual flecks of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both) and 3 (supragingival calculus covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or a continuous heavy band of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL).

    Measured: at bonding session

  8. Calculus index measurements

    Calculus index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at 6 months after bonding based on the following scale: 0 (no calculus present), 1 (supragingival calculus covering not more than one third of the exposed tooth surface), 2 (supragingival calculus covering more than one third but not more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or the presence of individual flecks of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both) and 3 (supragingival calculus covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or a continuous heavy band of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL)

    Measured: 6 months after bonding

  9. Calculus index measurements

    Calculus index was scored by a specialized periodontist on the mesiolingual, lingual, and distolingual sides of each tooth at 12 months after bonding based on the following scale: 0 (no calculus present), 1 (supragingival calculus covering not more than one third of the exposed tooth surface), 2 (supragingival calculus covering more than one third but not more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or the presence of individual flecks of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both) and 3 (supragingival calculus covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or a continuous heavy band of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both).

    All measurements were performed using acrylic stents to ensure reproducible placement of the periodontal probe (PCP 15 UNC, Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL)

    Measured: 12 months after bonding

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Failure rate

    A retainer with at least one composite pad detachment was considered to be a failure during a 1-year follow-up period. When there was no wire breakage or deformation, the tooth surfaces were cleaned and bonding was completed using a direct technique.

    Measured: during 1-year follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Baseline periodontal measurements (T0), Periodontal measurements (T1) and Periodontal measurements (T2) in people with Periodontal Inflammation, run by Pamukkale University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 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 26 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Plaque index measurements (time frame: at the bonding session). The study lists 9 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 26 Jul 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
