Trial summary

Most osteotomies and apicoectomies in periapical surgeries are performed by surgical carbide or diamond burs. But greater pressure is applied during cutting which causes more thermal and mechanical damage to the bone. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Piezoelectric Device on Intraoperative Hemorrhage Control and Quality of Life After Endodontic Microsurgery in Maxillary Molar Teeth: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Most osteotomies and apicoectomies in periapical surgeries are performed by surgical carbide or diamond burs. But greater pressure is applied during cutting which causes more thermal and mechanical damage to the bone. Also, when it comes in contact with soft tissues like nerves or vessels it results in profuse bleeding which affects vision in surgery and neurosensory disturbance at a later stage along with the deposition of metal shavings and bony particles resulting in impaired healing. The main advantages of piezoelectric surgery in various studies are highlighted as selective hard tissue cutting and sparing soft tissue, so even if it comes in contact with vessels, nerve or Schneiderian membrane it does not result in profuse bleeding, postoperative nerve damage or perforation.

Read the detailed description

Most periapical radiolucent lesions heal uneventfully after endodontic treatment. However, some cases may require periradicular surgery in order to remove pathologic tissue from the periapical region and simultaneously eliminate any source of irritation that could not be removed by orthograde root canal treatment

In dentistry, the piezoelectric bone surgery was developed by the oral surgeon Tomaso Vercellotti in 1988, to overcome the limitations of traditional instrumentation, which was first used for maxillary sinus surgery to reduce the incidence of Schneiderian membrane perforations.

Piezoelectric surgery is a promising technical modality with applications in several aspects of endodontic surgery like bone-tissue management, enucleation of radicular cysts, root-end resection \& root-end Cavity Preparation. Piezoelectric surgical device operates with principles similar to the piezoelectric dental scaler devices except for its power which is three to six times higher than the piezoelectric dental scalers. The advantages of piezoelectric surgery over conventional endodontic surgery include protection of soft tissues, optimal visualization of the surgical field, decreased blood loss, reduced vibration and noise, increased patient comfort and protection of tooth structures. But some of its disadvantages are initial financial burden for setting up of the unit, long duration of surgery and instruction manuals discouraging its use in patients with cardiac pacemakers.

Less intraoperative blood loss and less chance of inferior alveolar nerve injury was observed on piezoelectric osteotomy in orthognathic surgery at no extra time investment.

In a similar study comparing piezo osteotomy and traditional saw in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery there was significantly reduced blood loss, postoperative hematoma, swelling and nerve impairment in piezo osteotomy but the mean operative time was more

Distance of 1.97mm between the maxillary sinus floor and root apices and even shorter distance between the periapical lesion and maxillary sinus floor warns the surgeon during removal of lesion.

Schneiderian membrane perforation rate while performing lateral window sinus elevation procedure reduced from 30% by conventional surgical burs to 7% by piezoelectric unit.

The capacity of selective cutting, reducing the risk of perforating the sinus lining, and increased visibility of the surgical field due to the cavitation effect from the saline irrigating solution of the piezoelectric unit makes it the preferred option for performing upper molar surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing conventional surgery and piezoelectric device in people with Periapical Lesion, run by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak at 1 site in India.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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 2 Feb 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 India. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Quality of life assessment (time frame: till 7 days after surgery). 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?
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 2 Feb 2024.
