About this study

Official title: Comparison of Masticatory Efficiency and EMG Activity Between Complete Denture With Zero-degree Teeth and Anatomic Teeth in Patients With Severely Resorbed Ridge

This study aims to evaluate masticatory efficiency of the zero-degree teeth complete denture in treatment of edentulous patients of severely resorbed ridge.Patients will be crossed over to be treated with zero-degree teeth complete denture and anatomic teeth complete denture. For each patient, the masticatory efficiency and electromyography with different denture will be recorded and analysis.

What participants receive

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

  • zero degree teethDevice

    zero degree teeth complete denture was first prescribed to patients in group 1 while patients in group 2 were treated with anatomic teeth complete denture

  • anatomic teethDevice

    when anatomic teeth complete denture was prescribed to patients in group 1, patients in group 2 were treated with zero degree teeth complete denture

What is being measured

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

  1. EMG (Masseters EMG Are Recorded After Patient Wears Complete Denture for Three Months)

    the masseters EMG are recorded after patient wears complete denture for three months,EMGs of masseters of 20 chewing strokes were recorded in term of value of amp and duration,amplitude is reported here as the average value from 20 chewing strokes in units of "microvolts".

    Measured: three months

  2. EMG (Masseters EMG Are Recorded After Patient Wears Complete Denture for Three Months)

    the masseters EMG are recorded after patient wears complete denture for three months,EMGs of masseters of 20 chewing strokes were recorded in term of value of amp and duration, duration here is reporteds the average value from 20 chewing strokes in units of "millisecond".

    Measured: three month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Masticatory Efficiency Index

    the masticatory efficiency is tested after patient wears complete denture for three months,each patient was given 4 gram dry peanuts, chewed for 20 seconds, then spat in the receptacle and rinsed mouth residue. The peanut particles were diluted to 1000 ml with distilled water, stirred for 1 minutes and standing for 2 minutes to suspension. Absorbance values(av) were measured at the wavelength of 590nm in a spectrophotometer. The higher the masticatory efficiency, the smaller the peanut particles, then the higher the av value, vice versa. Value of av was used to represent masticatory efficiency. For each patient, the test was conducted three times, and the average value of av was taken as the final result. A lower masticatory efficiency index indicates larger peanut particle size observed.

    Measured: three months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing zero degree teeth and anatomic teeth in people with Edentulous, run by Haixin Qian.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 20 May 2015. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Apr 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

EMG (Masseters EMG Are Recorded After Patient Wears Complete Denture for Three Months) (time frame: three months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 May 2015.
