About this study

Official title: Retention Rate of Giomer S-PRG Filler Containing Pit and Fissure Sealant Applied With or Without Etching by Using Split Mouth Technique: Randomized Clinical Trial

The aim of this study is to evaluate the retention rate of Giomer S-PRG filler containing pit and fissure sealant applied with or without etching by using split mouth technique.with null hypothesis that Giomer S-PRG filler containing pit and fissure sealant applied either with or without etching will have the same retention rate.

Read the detailed description

Study Settings:

The study will be carried out at the Conservative Dentistry Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University in Egypt. Ethical approval is taken from the Research Ethics Committee of the faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University. Signed informed consent is signed by each participant.

Recruitment:

Participants are recruited from the patients' flow at the clinics of the Conservative Dentistry Department of Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo university.

Eligibility Criteria:

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. ICDAS score 0 or 1
  2. Satisfactory oral hygiene
  3. Normal salivary characteristics (consistency, pH, flow rate, buffering capacity)
  4. Satisfactory cooperative behavior
  5. Age between 15- 30 years old
  6. Males or females
  7. Subjects who signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. ICDAS score > 1
  2. Poor oral hygiene
  3. Evidence of tempromandibular joint disorders or malocclusion

Materials used in this trial are the Giomer S-PRG filler containing pit and fissure sealant (Beautisealant) and its self etching primer (Beauisealant primer).

Control group:

In the control group, an adequate amount of primer will be applied onto the enamel surface with a microbrush, left undisturbed for 5 s and then air-dried gently to avoid blowing it away. Beautisealant will be applied directly from the syringe into pits and fissures and light-cured for 10 s, according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Intervention Group:

In the intervention group, the same steps will be done except for an additional initial etching step with phosphoric acid etching for 30 s (for the uncut enamel) before primer and sealant application.

Outcome Assessment:

The results of sealant retention were assessed according to the following criteria (Simonsen):

A complete retention B partial loss (B1, without caries; B2, with caries) C complete loss (C1, without caries; C2, with caries)

Being tested
Giomer pit and fissure sealant without etching, Giomer pit and fissure sealant with etching

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Giomer pit and fissure sealant without etching and Giomer pit and fissure sealant with etching in people with Caries Prevention, run by Cairo 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 7 inclusion and 3 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 30 Jul 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

retention rate (time frame: 3 months, 6months , 1 year). 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 NCT06509451, 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.
