About this study

Official title: Clinical Outcomes of Different Staged Ridge-Splitting Techniques Using Piezo-Electric Surgery in Atrophic Posterior Mandible

This study aims to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of different staged ridge-splitting techniques for management of severely resorbed lower jaws in the posterior region. The study is designed as a clinical trial, so that three different interventions would be compared for a conclusion highlighting the relative best of them.

Read the detailed description

In the context of the care of severely resorbed lower jaws in the posterior region, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of several stepwise ridge-splitting procedures. The study is supposed to be a clinical trial, with the purpose of comparing three distinct therapies in order to get a result that highlights which of them is the most effective in comparison to the others.

Being tested
Modified Ridge-Splitting

What participants receive

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

  • Modified Ridge-SplittingProcedure or surgery

    Unlike the conventional ridge-splitting where bone grafting is done in the same visit after ridge splitting, modified ridge splitting involves splitting the ridge only at the first visit, then bone grafting is done either alone afterwards in the second visit (Modified 3-Staged Ridge-Splitting Group) and dental implants will be placed in the third visit, or, as in the Modified 2-Staged Ridge-Splitting Group, bone grafting and dental implants placement will be done in the second visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Alveolar ridge width

    Radiographically via Cone-beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), the width of the alveolar bone was measured horizontally from the buccal to lingual cortex below the crest of the alveolar bone from 3 levels at 1 mm, 3 mm and 6 mm on three cross-sections by the CBCT software (OnDemand, Cybermed Inc, Korea).

    Measured: immediately after implant placement, immediately after implant loading and six months after implant loading

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Implant stability

    Smartpeg was installed in the dental implant fixture. From both buccal and lingual directions, an analyzer probe was located closer to the Smartpeg, and the implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were obtained from the Osstell Monitor

    Measured: immediately after implant placement, immediately after implant loading and six months after implant loading

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Modified Ridge-Splitting in people with Alveolar Ridge Augmentation, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 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 Egypt. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Alveolar ridge width (time frame: immediately after implant placement, immediately after implant loading and six months after implant loading). 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 NCT06200077, 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 10 Jan 2024.
