About this study

Official title: Clinical Investigation of the Effects of Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) and Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) on Pain, Edema and Trismus After Impacted Lower Third Molar Surgery

The objective of this case-control intervention study is to explore the effectiveness of Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) and Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) on Pain, Edema and Trismus After Impacted Lower Third Molar Surgery

Read the detailed description

In the present study, 75 patient, whose ages ranged between 18-30 and have an impacted lower third molar which is in vertical or mesiyoangular position and has class I and II ramus relationship and class B and C depth, will included. 75 patient will divided randomly into three groups as CGF, A-PRF and Control. After third molar surgery CGF and A-PRF will prepared and applied to the extraction sockets in CGF and A-PRF groups. nothing will applied to the control group. Post operative pain, edema and trismus will measured at 2nd and 7th days.

Being tested
Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF), Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF), Control

What is being measured

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

  1. Edema-amount change of swelling

    In order to evaluate the amount change of swelling after the operation, horizontal and vertical measurements will be made from 5 reference points including tragus, lip corner, soft tissue pogonion, lateral cantus of the eye and gonion. The first measurement between the tragus-lip corner, the second measurement will be obtained by measuring the horizontal distance between the tragus-soft tissue pogonion. The third measurement will be determined by the measurement of the vertical distance between the outer corner of the eye and the gonion. to determine the change in the swelling measurements performed before surgery and at 2nd-7th days after surgery.

    Measured: Baseline, 2nd and 7th days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Trismus- degree of change (limitation) in maximum mouth opening

    The maximum mouth opening will be determined as the distance between the right lower and upper right central.

    Measured: Baseline, 2nd and 7th days

  2. Post operative Pain: visual analog (VAS) scale

    For the evaluation of the pain, the visual analog scale (VAS) will be used to express the absence of pain in the initial part on a straight line (0) and the end part to express the unbearable pain (10).

    0 (no pain)--------------------------------------------------------------------------------10 (unbearable pain) Higher values of the scale represent worse outcome.

    Measured: 6th and 24th hours, 2nd and 7th days

  3. Post-operative symptom severity (PoSSe) scale

    The evaluation of the change in postoperative quality of life will be done with a scale of post-operative symptom severity (PoSSe) consisting of 15-item questionnaire in which the effect of operation on eating, speech, sensation, appearance, pain, disease and daily activities is evaluated. This questionnaire was divided into subscales corresponding to seven main adverse effects, andfor each possible answer there was a score ranging from 0 to a variable number. For total possible answer there was a score ranging from 0 to a 97.9. Higher values of the scale represent worse outcome.

    Measured: Post operative 7th day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) and Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) in people with Trismus and Edema, run by Dr. Damla Torul at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 8 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 28 Aug 2019. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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.

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?

Edema-amount change of swelling (time frame: Baseline, 2nd and 7th days). 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 28 Aug 2019.
