Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 20 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Age ranges from 20-60 years. No sex predilection.
  • Patients free from any systemic conditions and bone metabolism diseases that might interfere with the surgical intervention, soft tissue or hard tissue healing.

About this study

  • this study aims to evaluate accuracy of fixation of the bone shells by a calculated distance which is always a challenging step for inexperienced surgeons to fix a cortical shells at the ideal position in the conventional protocol. the fixation guides used to make the shells precisely fixed at the proper position and angulation the problem is if it fixed with insufficient distance with proposed volume loss leads to totally insufficient volume gain for future implant placement
  • also to evaluate the efficacy of the CAD/CAM surgical guide during chin harvesting (harvesting guide ) procedure in reducing the risk of anatomical structure damage (mental neve) and patient morbidity with more accuracy compared with the standard technique and preserve the roots of the lower anterior teeth or any fracture to the inferior border of the mandible also allow to harvest the bone shells from the suitable area with cancellous bone which prevent bad split of the bone shells this trial versus free hand conventional cortical shell bone technique both harvested from symphysis area (chin),
  • also to evaluate thickness of implanted bone shells , the thickness should be enough to preserve the graft(autograft 50% and xenograft 50%) between the buccal and lingual bone shells
  • also aims to evaluate the vertical and horizontal bone augmentation achieved at the anterior mandible using computer-guided cortical shell bone technique.

What is being measured

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

  1. accuracy of the implanted bone blocks

    • depening on the superimposition between immediate postoperative CBCT scan over planning
    • the maximum thickness of the implanted bone blocks (mimics)

    Measured: immediately post operative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. bone gain vertical and horizontal

    CBCT volumetric change of deficient alveolar ridge after augmentation

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing horizontal and vertical bone augmentation using computer guided cortical shell technique and free hand cortical shell technique in anterior 3d defect in people with Bone Loss, run by Cairo University.

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 4 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Nov 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?

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 Ahmed Salah Ahmed Salah Sayed (+20 010207395, ahmed.ibrahem@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

accuracy of the implanted bone blocks (time frame: immediately post operative). 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 15 Nov 2024.
