Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 30 to 50 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Study population: A total of 555 patients will be recruited from the out patient department of periodontics, PGIDS, Rohtak based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study design will be explained to eligible candidates and all study participants will be required to provide informed consent. Subjects will be grouped based on stage of periodontitis and a healthy control group.

Who may be able to join

  • Adult patients with age group 30-50 years diagnosed with generalized periodontitis
  • Presence of minimum 20 teeth (Eichner group A1, A2, A3) excluding third molars.

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: Assessment of Masticatory Performance in Various Stages of Periodontitis

The loss of periodontal attachment contributes to reduced masticatory performance and has a negative impact on general health.This clinical trial aims to assess the status of masticatory performance among patients with stage I, stage II, stage III and stage IV periodontitis, along with those with healthy periodontium.

Read the detailed description

Periodontal disease manifestations include gingival bleeding, halitosis, tooth mobility and loss of teeth in advanced cases. The loss of periodontal attachment contributes to reduced masticatory performance and has a negative impact on general health. Loss of periodontium leads to reduced ability of tooth to withstand masticatory loads. Thus, biting abilities of subjects with healthy periodontium are significantly greater than those of chronic periodontitis patients. Even though the new periodontitis classification includes masticatory dysfunction in stage 4, but clinical periodontal parameters do start influencing objective masticatory efficiency in early stages. Since the masticatory function is an important point for the classification of periodontitis, standardized procedures with corresponding reference values are needed to consider these parameters in the assessment of periodontitis and to be able to make specific therapy recommendations.

This clinical trial aims to assess the changes in masticatory performance among periodontitis patients of all stages and healthy individuals using test methods easily applicable in daily practice.

Periodontally HealthyComplete periodontal examination will be done comprising of recording pocket probing depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL) at six sites per tooth, bleeding on probing (BOP), plaque index (PI) and gingival index (GI) and mobility. Objective Masticatory Performance will be evaluated using colour mixing ability of a chewing gum. Subjective masticatory performance will be calculated using The Quality of Masticatory Function Questionnaire.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective masticatory performance

    Objective Masticatory Performance will be evaluated using colour mixing ability of a chewing gum, through optoelectronic analysis using a software.

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subjective masticatory performance

    Subjective masticatory performance will be calculated using The Quality of Masticatory Function Questionnaire which consists of 29 questions related to frequency and difficulty of chewing different types of foods in the previous 2 weeks.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis, Chronic and Chewing Problem, 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 2 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 23 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 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?

Contact Rajinder K Sharma, MDS (09416358222, rksharmamds@yahoo.in), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective masticatory performance (time frame: Baseline). 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 23 May 2024.
