About this study

Official title: Comparison of Sinus Lifting Techniques Performed with Piezosurgery and a Surgical Guide, a Specially Designed Drill, and Conventional Drills in Terms Complications and Quality of Life

This study aims to investigate the effects of various external sinus lifting techniques on patient comfort and perioperative complications.

Read the detailed description

Patients who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted for posterior maxilla rehabilitation participated in this prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial. The three methods used to lift the sinuses were randomized: piezosurgery using a surgical guide, a drill specifically made for lateral sinus lift, and traditional drills. Recorded were the duration of the procedure, accessibility, and intraoperative complications. During the first week following surgery, analgesic intake and pain using a visual analog scale (VAS) were assessed assessed. Preoperatively and on the second and seventh postoperative days, edema was assessed. Preoperatively and on the seventh postoperative day, the patient\'s quality of life using the OHIP-14 questionnaire, experiences, and expectations were evaluated.

Being tested
maxillary sinus lift with reamer, maxillary sinus lift with piezzo, maxillary sinus lift with conventional burr
Keywords
Sinus floor augmentation, computer-aided design, piezosurgery

What participants receive

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

  • maxillary sinus lift with reamerProcedure or surgery

    Lateral window created with specially designed burs for lateral sinus lift

  • maxillary sinus lift with piezzoProcedure or surgery

    lateral window was created using piezo surgery and surgical guide

  • maxillary sinus lift with conventional burrProcedure or surgery

    the lateral window was created with conventional rotary instrument burs

What is being measured

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

  1. Operation Time

    The time from the osteotomy of the sinus window to completation of membrane elevation

    Measured: from the osteotomy of the sinus window to completation of membrane elevation

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Patient Experience

    Patients asked to rate their postoperative experience with a 3-point scale (0, my expectation and experience were the same/similar; 1, my experience was better than my expectation; 2, my experience was worse than my expectation)

    Measured: 7th postoperative day

  2. Pain

    intensity of pain experienced by patients assessed using a 10-cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Measured: from 6 hours to postoperative 7 days

  3. Analgesic Consumption

    need for analgesics

    Measured: from 6 hours to 7 days postoperatively

  4. Edema

    Swelling after surgery measurements collected of a anatomical locations on the face that served as reference points. Reference points included the tragus, alare, lateral corner of the eye, gonion, soft tissue pogonion, and external corner of the mouth. The average of each measurement was used to calculate the edema level.

    Measured: on the 2nd and 7th days

  5. Quality of Life

    The OHIP-14 used to measure quality of life. Scores ranged from 0 (no impact) to 56 (all oral health concerns encountered extremely frequently). It was scored as follows: Never (0 points); Seldom (1 point); Sometimes (2 points); Frequently (3 points); and Very frequently (4 points).

    Measured: preoperatively and on postoperative day 7

  6. Surgeon;s Comfort

    The comfort of the access to the operation site evaluated by the surgeon on a 4-point scale (0, very poor visibility; 1, fair visibility; 2, good visibility; 3, excellent visibility)

    Measured: Immediately after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing maxillary sinus lift with reamer, maxillary sinus lift with piezzo and maxillary sinus lift with conventional burr in people with Maxillary Sinus Augmentation, run by Ordu University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 5 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Operation Time (time frame: from the osteotomy of the sinus window to completation of membrane elevation). 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 NCT06601816, 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.

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 19 Sep 2024.
