A: Scaling groupExperimentalThe experimental group will receive oral hygiene instruction (OHI) and full-mouth scaling using standard rigid Gracey curettes (Hu-Friedy® Manufacturing Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) and ultrasonic instrumentation (EMS piezoelectric system, Electro Medical Systems, Nyon, Switzerland) at week 1-2 and at a second reinforcement visit at 6-8 weeks. Subjects will also be instructed to rinse with 10ml of Chlorhexidine 0.2% mouthrinse twice daily for 30 seconds for the duration of the study.
Receives: Procedure: Gingival scaling
B: Control groupNo interventionThe control group will receive no periodontal treatment during the study. After completion of the study, these patients will be given oral hygiene instruction and a full mouth scaling.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Gingival scaling in people with Gingival Scaling and Metabolic Control, run by Rambam Health Care Campus at 1 site in Israel.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2010. 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 Israel. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Metabolic control (time frame: 3 months). 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 7 Dec 2010.
