About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Postoperative Pain After Using 3MIX-TATIN Versus Calcium Hydroxide Iodoform Paste In Necrotic Primary Molars Treated by Lesion Sterilization and Tissue Repair Therapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The aim of the current study is to compare a newly introduced material which is a combination of triple mix antibiotics paste and anti-hyperlipidemia drug simvastatin, the new material is named 3MIX-TATIN \& will be compared to triple antibiotic paste for management of necrotic primary molars by using lesion sterilization and tissue repair LSTR technique.

Read the detailed description

3Mix-tatin will prepared by mixing three commercially available antibiotics with simvastatin. After removing the coating materials, 3 types of antibiotics are pulverized by porcelain mortars and pestles to achieve fine powders. A total of 100 mg ciprofloxacin, 100 mg metronidazole, and 100 mg cefixime will be mixed in a ratio of 1: 1: 1. Two milligrams of simvastatin will be added to the drugs blend to form 3-Mix-tatin. Preparation of 3Mixtatin will be trained and supervised by an expert pharmacist. 3Mixtatin will be stored in a tightly capped porcelain container, adding a small amount of silica gel in a bag inside the container to maintain low humidity. This powder will be mixed with normal saline to form a creamy paste of 3Mixtatin at the time of application.

Local anesthesia using mepivicaine hydrochloride 3% (septodont, saint-maurdesFosses, France) will be administered.

Rubber dam isolation.

Access cavity will be prepared with a fissure bur in a high-speed handpiece, necrotic pulp tissue will be removed using a sterile sharp spoon excavator.

The canal orifices will be enlarged with a round bur (one mm diameter and two mm depth) to create medication receptacles.

Cotton pellet moistened with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) will be placed in the pulp chamber for 1 minute.

Bleeding, if present, will be controlled by applying sterile cotton pellet moistened with 10% sodium hypochlorite against the pulp stumps and will be maintained for 1 min.

The 3-Mix-Tatin will be mixed with saline to obtain a creamy mix and placed over the canal orifices and the pulpal floor.

The access opening will be sealed with a glass ionomer cement , and the tooth will be restored with a stainless steel crown.

Being tested
Calcium Hydroxide, Iodoform, paste, 3-mixtatin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Calcium Hydroxide, Iodoform, paste and 3-mixtatin in people with Necrotic Pulp and Postoperative Pain, run by Mahmoud M Saadoon 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 26 Oct 2018. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

pain (time frame: at 3rd 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 26 Oct 2018.
