About this study

Official title: Remineralization of Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) With a Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste - an in Situ Study

This study tests the remineralization of donor teeth (donorMIH) in situ in participants using 10% hydroxyapatite (HAP) toothpaste and sodium fluoride toothpaste.

Read the detailed description

Prior to each 2-week treatment phase, subjects will complete a 1-week washout period. Following the washout period, the intra-oral appliance containing a donorMIH tooth block will be fitted to each subject by a qualified dentist. Immediately after fitting of the first appliance (on day 1 of the first treatment phase), each subject will receive a soft bristled manual toothbrush for use throughout the duration of the study and a toothpaste according to the treatment phase. Subjects will be instructed to brush their teeth with the appliance in the mouth, two times daily, for 3 minutes on each brushing episode, in the morning after breakfast and last thing before bed, then rinsing with 10 ml of water. Over the study period, all subjects will maintain their normal dietary habits.

A 7-day washout period without an appliance will follow. After completion of the second washout period, subjects will return to the clinic, and the appliance, with another MIH-bearing tooth blocks mounted, will be fitted to the subject for the phase 2 treatment period. This procedure will then be repeated until the 2-week treatment phase is completed, and each subject has gone through the two arms of the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Mineral Density (MD) of Tooth

    Images will be collected from the samples to measure the mineral density before and after remineralization treatment. Total number of subjects enrolled in either the first allocation or the second allocation after the washout are included.

    Measured: Baseline to 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hydroxyapatite toothpaste and Sodium Fluoride Toothpaste in people with Molar Incisor Hypomineralization, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio 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 9 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 12 Apr 2024. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Jan 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Mineral Density (MD) of Tooth (time frame: Baseline to 2 weeks). 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 12 Apr 2024.
