About this study

Official title: Ridge Splitting Using Autogenous Bone Wedge Versus the Conventional Intercortical Augmentation Technique in Horizontally Deficient Anterior Maxilla A Randomized Clinical Trial

The current study aimed to evaluate both the quality and quantity of gained and maintained bone width after ridge splitting utilizing autogenic bone wedges versus mixed bone particles for horizontal ridge augmentation in the anterior esthetic zone.

Read the detailed description

This randomized clinical study included 20 patients with a horizontally deficient ridge in the esthetic region. Two groups were divided according to the type of intercortical bone graft used after ridge splitting: 10 patients for each. (The intervention group) had grafting with autogenous bone wedges harvested from the chin, and (the control group) had mixed (autogenic and xenogenic) bone particles.

What participants receive

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

  • autogenous bone wedgeProcedure or surgery

    autogenous bone block harvested from chin and adjusted to be wedged intercortical in split ridge

Study groups in NCT06529653
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
intervention groupOtherthe group using an autogenous bone wedge harvested from the chin interpositioned between split cortices in the anterior maxilla to manage the horizontal deficiency of the ridge.
Receives: Procedure: autogenous bone wedge
control groupOtherthe group used mixed autogenic and xenogenic bone particles that interposed between split cortices in anterior maxilla to manage the horizontal deficiency of the ridge
Receives: Procedure: autogenous bone wedge

What is being measured

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

  1. bone width in (mm) by cone beam pre, immediate post operative and 6 months postoperative

    after ridge augmentation in both groups, the bone width will be measured immediately postoperatively and 6 months postoperatively with cone beam and the measurements of the three intervals (pre-, immediate and 6 months postoperatively) will be compared in both groups to evaluate the amount of gained and maintained bone width

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. percentage of areas of new bone (%)

    The harvested core biopsies would be stained with H\&E and Massons trichrome stain and be microscopically examined to determine percentage areas of newly formed bone

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing autogenous bone wedge in people with Horizontal Ridge Deficiency, 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 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 31 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.

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 yasmin ahmed, B.D.S (01065273456, yasmin.ahmed@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

bone width in (mm) by cone beam pre, immediate post operative and 6 months postoperative (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 NCT06529653, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 31 Jul 2024.
