About this study

Official title: The Effect of Collagen Sponge Placed in the Socket After Surgical Extraction of Mandibular Third Molars on the Incidence of Alveolar Osteitis. A Randomized Controlled Trial

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare pain, mouth opening, and alveolar osteitis following surgical extraction of bilateral symmetrical impacted lower third molars using two types of wound closures. Collagen plugs will be applied in the sockets of the study side followed by suture, while the controlled side will be sutured without a collagen plug. The study will include 40 patients aged between 18- 40 years old, medically fit (ASA1), who have bilateral symmetrical impacted lower third molars and visit the oral surgery clinics of King Saud Medical City for extraction. The main question is" Does intra-alveolar collagen application after surgical extraction of impacted lower third molars reduce the incidence of alveolar osteitis?

Being tested
Application of a collagen sponge after surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molar, No collagen sponge application after surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molar
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Pre-extraction Pain score

    Pain measurement by VAS (0-10). 0: no pain. 10: worst pain

    Measured: Pre-extraction

  2. Pre-extraction Halitosis

    Halitosis in reported in the presence of a bad odor that is smelled by the investigator during the patient's speech

    Measured: Pre-extraction

  3. Pre-extraction Mouth opening

    Maximum Mouth opening is taken by a caliber

    Measured: Pre-extraction

  4. Pain score Day3

    Pain measurement by VAS (0-10). 0: no pain. 10: worst pain

    Measured: 3 days after extraction

  5. Pain score Day7

    Pain measurement by VAS (0-10). 0: no pain. 10: worst pain

    Measured: 7 days after extraction

  6. Mouth opening Day7

    Maximum Mouth opening is taken by a caliber

    Measured: 7 days after extraction

  7. Halitosis Day7

    Halitosis in reported in the presence of a bad odor that is smelled by the investigator during the patient's speech

    Measured: 7 days after extraction

  8. Alveolar osteitis

    is diagnosed if the patient complains of pain (more than 5) between day 2 and day 4 with empty sockets and food debris, with or without halitosis

    Measured: After 3 days of extraction

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Application of a collagen sponge after surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molar and No collagen sponge application after surgical extraction of impacted 3rd molar in people with Alveolar Osteitis, run by Riyadh Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy at 1 site in Saudi Arabia.

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 2 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 9 May 2023. 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 Saudi Arabia. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Nedal A Abu-Mostafa, Assistant P (00966506275782, nabumostafa@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pre-extraction Pain score (time frame: Pre-extraction). The study lists 8 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 9 May 2023.
