Trial summary

The goal of this project is to evaluate the influence of platelet rich fibrin (PRF) in extraction socket healing with or without particulate bone graft. The hypothesis of this study is that PRF will enhance the extraction socket healing and new bone formation when compared to extraction sockets grafted without PRF. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Influence of Platelet-Rich Fibrin on Post-extraction Alveolar Ridge Healing/Preservation as a Stand-alone or Adjunct to Particulate Graft: A Clinical, Radiographic and Histological Evaluation

The goal of this project is to evaluate the influence of platelet rich fibrin (PRF) in extraction socket healing with or without particulate bone graft. The hypothesis of this study is that PRF will enhance the extraction socket healing and new bone formation when compared to extraction sockets grafted without PRF.

Being tested
Socket grafting with PRF, Socket grafting with bone graft

What participants receive

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

  • Socket grafting with PRFProcedure or surgery

    Extraction with socket grafting using PRF.

  • Socket grafting with bone graftProcedure or surgery

    Extraction with socket grafting using bone graft.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in alveolar ridge width (buccal-lingual)

    Baseline is at the time of extraction with or without socket grafting.

    Measured: baseline, 3 months

  2. Change in alveolar ridge height (apical coronal)

    Baseline is at the time of extraction with or without socket grafting.

    Measured: baseline, 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of vital bone in bone core as assessed histology

    A bone core will be taken at 3 months after socket grafting.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Percentage of residual bone graft in bone core as assessed histology

    A bone core will be taken at 3 months after socket grafting.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Socket grafting with PRF and Socket grafting with bone graft in people with Extraction Socket Healing and Alveolar Ridge Preservation, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston at 1 site in United States.

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 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 4 May 2017. 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 United States. 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?

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?

Change in alveolar ridge width (buccal-lingual) (time frame: baseline, 3 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 4 May 2017.
