  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • Clinical Criteria:
  • Children aged 4-7 years. Apparently healthy children. Children with mild to moderate occlusal carious lesions in the mandibular second primary molar indicated for indirect pulp capping.
  • No history of spontaneous pain, pathologic mobility, draining sinus tract, redness or swelling of vestibule.

  • No sign of radiolucency in periapical or furcation area.
  • No widening of PDL space or loss of lamina dura continuity.
  • No evidence of internal/external pathologic root resorption.

Who cannot join

  • Uncooperative children to avoid time waste and attrition bias.

About this study

Official title: Comparative Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Casein Phosphopeptide Amorphous Calcium Phosphate Under Glass Ionomer in Atraumatic Restorative Treatment Versus Conventional Atraumatic Restorative Treatment in Primary Teeth: A Randomized Clinical Trial

To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of using Casein Phosphopeptide Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) under glass ionomer restorations in atraumatic restorative treatment as a biomimetic approach in pediatric dentistry.

Read the detailed description

With the growing popularity of ART in the field of pediatric dentistry, a great deal of research has been done in recent years. Researchers are keen to explore the rich possibilities and variations of ART technique that can help doctors practice better and do more for their patients. Alternatives include detours to regenerative dentistry, which is becoming more and more popular these days.

CPP ACP is still of great interest in the region due to its remineralizing action. However, to our knowledge, clinical and radiological success involving tissue regeneration by CPP-ACP is understudied. Furthermore, the studies conducted justify the need for further research on the use of CPP-ACP as an indirect material under glass ionomers in ART. Therefore, this study aims to conclude whether CPP ACP has added value in regenerating, reducing pain, and improving repair retention in caries-affected dentin lesions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MI varnishDevice

    Also called CPP ACP

    delivers a powerful dose of fluoride, with the added booster effect of the calcium and phosphate ions through its patented Recaldent™ technology. High initial fluoride release. Minimizes tooth sensitivity and strengthens enamel. Neutral pH of 6,6 enhances enamel and dentin acid resistance and inhibits demineralization

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-operative pain

    Verbal question to the patient form score 0-5 where o is no pain and maximum pain indicates 5

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Marginal integrity

    Visual and clinical examination (by probe and mirror or any change in color or breakage of restoration, recurrent caries as direct observation) from score 0-5 where 0 gap free marginal interface, 1 indicates mircoleakage occur in 1 surface, 2 in 2 surfaces, 3 in 3 surfaces, 4 in 4 surfaces, 5 loss of whole restoration.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Absence of furcation or periapical radiolucency

    Intra oral periapical Xray

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Absence of any internal or external root resorption

    Intra oral periapical Xray

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MI varnish in people with Caries, run by Cairo University.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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 13 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact mai sherif, BDS (01117777182, mai.sherif@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Post-operative pain (time frame: 12 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 NCT06098911, 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 13 Feb 2024.
