Trial summary

The main goal of the secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) for alveolar clefts is the rehabilitation of the disorganized maxilla, aiming to stabilize the maxillary foundation as a solid functional mass that would abort growth disturbance, allow for teeth eruption, and enhance their orthodontic movements.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Secondary Alveolar Cleft Reconstruction With Labial and Palatal Retromolar Cortical-Shells (A Case Series Study)

The main goal of the secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) for alveolar clefts is the rehabilitation of the disorganized maxilla, aiming to stabilize the maxillary foundation as a solid functional mass that would abort growth disturbance, allow for teeth eruption, and enhance their orthodontic movements.

The study evaluates the outcomes of a ( SABG) technique that utilizes the retromolar cortical shell technique to reconstruct the alveolar clefts.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Secondary alveolar bone grafting (SBAG)OtherA SABG technique that utilizes retromolar cortical shells and the underlying cancellous particulates to formulate a three-dimensional alveolar cleft reconstruction.
Receives: Procedure: Cortical-shell graft

What is being measured

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

  1. Horizontal bone width

    The amplitude of radiographic horizontal bone width change

    Measured: 6 months consolidation period

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Vertical bone level

    The amplitude of radiographic vertical bone change

    Measured: 6 months consolidation period

  2. Bone density

    The radiographic bone density of the consolidated graft at the site of the reconstructed cleft

    Measured: 6 months consolidation period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cortical-shell graft in people with Alveolar Cleft, run by Beni-Suef University at 2 sites 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 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Amr Hanafy Gibaly, PHD (01113336634, amrgibaly@dent.bsu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Horizontal bone width (time frame: 6 months consolidation period). 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 22 Jan 2025.
