About this study

Official title: Effect of Ozone Gel on Alveolar Bone Density and Superoxide Dismutase in Chronic Periodontitis: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Study

To evaluate the efficacy of locally delivered ozone gel as an adjunct to conventional periodontal therapy on selected clinical parameters as well as alveolar bone density (BD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in patient with chronic periodontitis.

Read the detailed description

In this study, the investigators tested the effect of ozone gel as a local delivery system in treatment of chronic periodontitis in term of probing pocket depth reduction, mean gain in clinical attachment level, a more rise in BD values as well as greater reduction in SOD activity compared to scaling and root planing (SRP) alone.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Superoxide dismutase activity

    Superoxide dismutase activity in the gingival crevicular fluid was carried out at baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months post treatment.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Plaque Index

    plaque index was recorded at baseline and at 1, 3 and 6 months post treatment.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Gingival index

    Gingival index was recorded at base line,1,3,6 months post treatment

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Probing pocket depth

    Probing pocket depth was recorded at base line, 1, 3, 6 months post treatment

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Clinical attachment level

    Clinical attachment level was recorded at baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months post treatment

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Bone density

    Bone density was carried out using Digora software (Digora system, Soredex, Orion Corp., Finland) at baseline and 6 months

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing scaling and root planing and Ozonated olive oil gel in people with Periodontal Diseases, run by October 6 University at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 20 Feb 2014. 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

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?

Superoxide dismutase activity (time frame: 6 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 20 Feb 2014.
