About this study

Official title: Tooth Shell Versus Bone Shell Technique For Horizontal Maxillary Alveolar Ridge Augmentation

This study is designed to evaluate the clinical and radiographical outcome of tooth shell for alveolar ridge reconstruction in maxilla as an alternative to traditional autologous bone shell graft.

Read the detailed description

twenty eight patients with one or two maxillary extracted teeth in need for horizontal bone augmentation and implant placement will be selected from the outpatient clinic of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University patients will be divided into two equal groups:

  • Group I: Horizontal bone augmentation will be done by bone shell technique.
  • Group II: Horizontal bone augmentation will be done by autogenous tooth shell technique.

Evaluation:

A-Clinical evaluation:

  • All patients were followed up on a weekly basis for the first postoperative month, then monthly for the rest of the postoperative period (6months) until implantation.
  • The patients were evaluated regarding pain, edema and hematoma at recipient and donor sites as well as healing of the mucosa.
  • A neurosensory evaluation was carried out at each clinical check up by asking the patient if there were any areas of hypoesthesia, numbness or tingling in the lower lip and chin at the side of the donor site.

B-Radiographic evaluation

•Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) were made immediately and 6 months post-operative to assess the alveolar bone in all three planes of space before implant placement. According to the measurements obtained from CBCT, appropriate implant size and length will be chosen and placed 6 months postoperative after removal of the micro screws.

Radiographic analysis:

Linear measurements of alveolar bone width were taken using CBCT scan at three stages; prior to grafting (T0) and immediately (T1), and 4 months post grafting (T2). Then three horizontal alveolar width measurements (crestal, middle and apical) were recorded at T0, T2 and T1. The measurement was performed with fixed points each time, the buccolingual width was measured at different levels. At the bone crest, 3mm from the bone crest and 6mm from the bone crest. The measurements were tabulated for statistical analysis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Maxillary Alveolar Ridge Augmentation in people with Dental Implant, 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 2 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 16 May 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. 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?

horizontal alveolar width measurements (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT06416605, 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 16 May 2024.
