About this study

Official title: Gingival Health Around Cervical Carious Lesions Restored With Calcium Silicate Based Cement (Biodentine) Compared With Glass-ionomer Cement: A Randomized Clinical Trial

This study will test if applying calcium silicate cements (Biodentine) to restore cervical carious lesions might adversely affect the gingival health in comparison with conventionally used tooth colored material (GIC)

Read the detailed description

The study will compare two different dental materials on dental lesions near the gum line. . The study will determine if one material is more effective in gingival health, after the placement of the two different dental materials.The oral hygiene and the gingival health of the restored teeth will be evaluated clinically at 1, 3 and 6-month intervals.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in Gingival index around Cervical Carious Lesions Restored with Calcium Silicate Based Cement (Biodentine™) Compared with Glass-Ionomer Cement;

    Gingival health will be measured using the Loe -Silness gingival scoring Index (1963) which scores gingivitis on a numerical scale according to the following criteria:

    • 0 = Absence of inflammation.
    • 1 = Mild inflammation, slight change in color, slight edema, no bleeding on probing.
    • 2 = Moderate inflammation, moderate glazing, redness, bleeding on probing.
    • 3- Severe inflammation, marked redness and hypertrophy, ulceration, tendency to spontaneous
    • Gingival index will be evaluated at four sites (mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual) on each tooth

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Changes in Plaque accumulation around Cervical Carious Lesions Restored with Calcium

    detect plaque level around restorations Plaque index (PI) (Silness and Löe, 1964). Plaque levels was measured using the Plaque Index Silness and Loe in 1964

    Score Criteria

    0 No plaque

    1. A film of plaque adhering to the free gingival margin and adjacent area of the tooth, which cannot be seen with the naked eye. But only by Using disclosing solution or by using probe.
    2. Moderate accumulation of deposits within the gingival pocket, on the gingival margin and/ or adjacent tooth surface, which can be seen with the naked eye.
    3. Abundance of soft matter within the gingival pocket and/or on the tooth and gingival margin. Plaque index will be evaluated at four sites (mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual) on each tooth

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in Pocket Depth around Cervical Carious Lesions Restored with Calcium

    Probing depths (PD) will be measured at six sites (mesial, distal, and middle sites of the buccal and lingual sides) on each tooth using a Williams periodontal probe. PD will be measured from gingival margin to the base of the pocket.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GIC and Biodentine in people with Gingivitis, run by Jordan University of Science and Technology.

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 8 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 1 Feb 2018. 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. 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.

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?

Changes in Gingival index around Cervical Carious Lesions Restored with Calcium Silicate Based Cement (Biodentine™) Compared with Glass-Ionomer Cement; (time frame: 6 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 1 Feb 2018.
