About this study

ozone therapy has been extensively used in dentistry to manage wounds healing, dental caries, oral lichen planus, gingivitis and periodontitis, halitosis, osteonecrosis of the jaw, post-surgical pain, plaque and biofilms, root canal treatment, dentin hypersensitivity, tempro-mandibular joint disorders and teeth whitening, And based on the above, in this study kiwi extract and ozone gas will be used individually and combined to evaluate the resultant effects on bleaching, enamel microhardness and micromorphology.

bleaching with 2% kiwi extract.ExperimentalThe fresh pulpy kiwi will be bought 200 gm of kiwi fruits were cleaned, cut into round shapes and blended with 15 mL of distilled water in a blender to obtain about 50 mL of kiwi concentrate. This concentrate will be filtered and then transferred into a cooling centrifuge to be processed at 2000 rpm for about 20 minutes at a temperature of 40°C. The extract thus collected will be stored at 4°C till further use.
Receives: Device: Bleaching
bleaching using 2,350 ppm ozone gas.ExperimentalA 2,350 ppm ozone concentration at a 615 cc per minute flow rate will be supplied by a well-known ozone producing machine. The ppm of ozone supplied will be verified via an ozone detection device, and the ozone flow rate will be verified by a flow meter directly before the start of the experiment. Ozone gas will be distributed to the tooth surfaces through special trays to assure a perfect seal to prevent any ozone leakage and to be safely employed to humans

What is being measured

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

  1. Color change assessment

    all participants will be requested to return after 24 hours to permit rehydration of tooth surfaces before shade assessment Tooth Shades will then record using colorimeter. The color change (ΔE) will be calculated using the formula: ΔE= {(ΔL) 2+ (Δa) 2+ (Δb)

    Measured: 24 Hours

  2. Color change assessment

    all participants will be requested to return after one month for tooth shades recording using colorimeter. The color change (ΔE) will be calculated using the formula: ΔE= {(ΔL) 2+ (Δa) 2+ (Δb) at one month

    Measured: one month

  3. Color change assessment

    all participants will be requested to return after one month for tooth shades recording using colorimeter. The color change (ΔE) will be calculated using the formula: ΔE= {(ΔL) 2+ (Δa) 2+ (Δb) at three months

    Measured: three month

  4. Color change assessment

    all participants will be requested to return after one month for tooth shades recording using colorimeter. The color change (ΔE) will be calculated using the formula: ΔE= {(ΔL) 2+ (Δa) 2+ (Δb) at six months

    Measured: six months

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 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 3 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Color change assessment (time frame: 24 Hours). The study lists 4 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 3 Sep 2024.
