Trial summary

This prospective observational study aim to evaluate discomforts after extraction of temporary tooth under local anesthesia. The first objective is to describe the prevalence of the post-extraction pain (PEP), post-extraction bleeding (PEB), post-extraction biting injury (PEBI) in children, and the analgesic usage.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Post-operative Discomforts in Children After Extraction of Temporary Teeth _ DEXTRAFANT _ RC16_0183

This prospective observational study aim to evaluate discomforts after extraction of temporary tooth under local anesthesia. The first objective is to describe the prevalence of the post-extraction pain (PEP), post-extraction bleeding (PEB), post-extraction biting injury (PEBI) in children, and the analgesic usage. The secondary objective is to define whether it is possible to determine a profile of patients or a type of extraction's procedure predictive to PEP and administration of analgesics, PEB or PEBI.

Read the detailed description

125 children in range of 2-15 years indicated for tooth extractions will be included in this study.

Informed consent will be obtained from all individual participants included in this study.

Immediately after extraction and until the following day, parents will be asked to assess the post-operative discomforts and to administrate paracetamol (acetaminophen) as soon as the child expressed a pain score ≥2 evaluated on the faces pain scale-revised (FPS-R).

A structured form is designed to obtained information regarding the patient's age, gender, socioeconomic level, and cooperation of the child before and during anesthesia or extraction, influence of accompanying person, number of previous extraction, dental hygiene. Moreover, details about the type of extraction; the indication of extraction (tooth decay, orthodontic treatment, obstacle, infection and traumatism), the type of tooth (incisor-canine or molar), the degree of root resorption, number of doses of local anesthetic, and presence of preexisting or per-operative pain are also collected.

What is being measured

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

  1. prevalence and severity of pain after extraction of deciduous teeth

    pain evaluated on the EVA faces pain scale-revised

    Measured: 32 hours post-operatively

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Determination of a profile of patients predictive to PEP and administration of analgesics, PEB or PEBI

    % of patient's by class of: age, gender, socioeconomic level, and cooperation of the child before and during anesthesia or extraction, influence of accompanying person, number of previous extraction, dental hygiene.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Determination of a profile of a type of extraction's procedure predictive to PEP and administration of analgesics, PEB or PEBI

    % of patient's by class of: type of extraction; the indication of extraction (tooth decay, orthodontic treatment, obstacle, infection and traumatism), the type of tooth (incisor-canine or molar), the degree of root resorption, number of doses of local anesthetic, and presence of preexisting or per-operative pain are also collected immediately after the tooth extraction.

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Post-extraction Pain (PEP) and Post-extraction Lip or Cheek Biting Injury (PEBI), run by Nantes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

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 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
