Who may be able to join

  • Adults between 18 and 80 years of age.

About this study

Official title: Clinical and Histological Assessment of a Bone Substitute Enriched With Bioactive Glass for Ridge Preservation

The goal of this case series study is to evaluate the clinical and histological outcomes of a protocol for managing hopeless teeth, focusing on alveolar preservation and subsequent dental implant placement. The study will also assess the long-term success of prosthetic reconstruction. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • How effective is the use of biomaterials for alveolar preservation in maintaining bone structure and quality?
  • What are the histological characteristics of the alveolar bone after biomaterial application?
  • How successful are dental implants and prosthetic reconstructions in restored sites over a 1-year follow-up period?
Read more

Participants will:

  1. Undergo extraction of hopeless teeth using an atraumatic protocol.
  2. Receive alveolar preservation treatment with biomaterials immediately after extraction.
  3. Provide a bone biopsy for histological processing before implant placement.
  4. Undergo dental implant placement and prosthetic reconstruction of the lost tooth.
  5. Attend follow-up appointments over a 1-year period for clinical and radiographic evaluations.

What is being measured

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

  1. histological analysis

    Histological sections will be stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson's trichrome. A semi-quantitative analysis will be performed by a pathologist (Blinded for the groups), adopting a histological score system (0 - absence, 1- mild; 2 - mild to moderate, 3 - moderate to intense, and 4 - intense). These scores will be determined based on the intensity of the following histological parameters: necrosis, inflammatory infiltrate, fibrosis, biomaterial remnants, new-formed bone trabeculae, and angiogenesis. A histomorphometric analysis will also be performed for the trabecular bone area, cellularity area, and microvessel density.

    Measured: Samples will be collected at 2 and 3 months after the surgical intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Alveolar Ridge Reconstruction in people with Hopeless Tooth, run by University of Sao Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 6 inclusion and 15 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 6 Dec 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 Brazil. 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 Giuseppe A Romito (+551130917833, garomito@usp.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

histological analysis (time frame: Samples will be collected at 2 and 3 months after the surgical intervention). 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 6 Dec 2024.
