About this study

Official title: Immediate And Sustained Treatment Response Of Commercially Available BioMin F, Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief And Sensodyne Rapid Action Dentifrices In Dentin Hypersensitivity - "A Randomized Clinical Trial"

This will be multi-centered, triple blinded, randomized, four parallel treatments assigned study to compare clinical efficacy of commercially available dentifrices with placebo for immediate and sustained relief from Dentin Hypersensitivity after short term use.

Condition or disease: Dentin hypersensitivity Intervention/Treatment: Product 1; Fluoro-Calcium-Phospho-silicate based BioMin F Product 2; Pro-Argin formula based Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief Product 3; Strontium Acetate based Sensodyne Rapid Action Product 4; Sodium Fluoride based Colgate Total

Read the detailed description

It is a randomized controlled clinical trial with non invasive topical intervention in 140 adult patients of 18 to 60 years age, that will be selected randomly after screening and diagnosis of dentin hypersensitivity, in dental Out Patient Department of Periodontology. Written informed consent will be obtained. Participants will be allocated randomly into four equal study arms for parallel treatment assignment with dentifrices named BioMin F, Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief Trade Mark,Sensodyne rapid action Trade Mark and Colgate Total Trade Mark dentifrices. Colgate total Trade Mark dentifrices does not claim pain relief in Dentin Hypersensitivity. Interim efficacy will be assessed immediately after topical application on sensitive teeth, in one minute, after 5 minutes, on day three and week 4 respectively. Dentin hypersensitivity will be tested with mechanical stimulus, evaporative air blast stimulus and water jet stimulus. It will be measured on Visual Analogue Scale and Schiff cold air sensitivity scale (SCASS). Statistical analysis will be done using ANOVA in Statistical Package for Social Sciences software 21.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Change in Mean Score of Pain Response From Baseline on Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale Using Air Blast Stimulus

    SCHIFF cold air sensitivity scale was used to measure the intensity of pain due to dentin hypersensitivity using air blast stimulus. Patients' response of pain was assessed by the doctor according to following score range from; "0"(no response of pain), "1" (pain response but no request of discontinuity of stimulus), "2"(pain response with request of discontinuity of stimulus), "3"(Immediate pain response for discontinuity of stimulus). Percent change in mean scores = ( one minute score-Baseline score) / Baseline score

    Measured: (Base line to 1 minute) (Base line to 5 minutes)(Base line to day 3)(Base line to week 4)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percent Change in Mean Scores of Pain Response From Baseline on Visual Analog Scale Using Mechanical Stimulus

    Visual Analogue Scale was used to measure the intensity of pain due to dentin hypersensitivity using mechanical stimulus. Patient's response of pain was assessed on vertical line of 0 to 10cm by asking him to move finger on the line and stop it where he felt pain. Score range from; 0 (no pain at 0cm), 1(mild pain at 1cm), 2(mild pain at 2cm), 3(mild pain at 3cm), 4(moderate pain at 4cm), 5(moderate pain at 5cm), 6(moderate pain at 6cm), 7(severe pain at 7cm), 8(severe pain at 8cm), 9(severe pain at 9cm),10(worst imaginable pain at 10cm). Percent change in mean scores = (one minute score-Baseline score) / Baseline score

    Measured: (Base line to 1 minute) (Base line to 5 minutes)(Base line to day 3)(Base line to week 4)

  2. Percent Change in Mean Scores of Pain Response From Baseline on Visual Analog Scale Using Water Jet Stimulus

    Visual Analogue Scale was used to measure the intensity of pain due to dentin hypersensitivity using Water Jet Stimulus. Patient's response of pain was assessed on vertical line of 0 to 10cm by asking him to move finger on the line and stop it where he felt pain. Score range from; 0 (no pain at 0cm), 1(mild pain at 1cm), 2(mild pain at 2cm), 3(mild pain at 3cm), 4(moderate pain at 4cm), 5(moderate pain at 5cm), 6(moderate pain at 6cm), 7(severe pain at 7cm), 8(severe pain at 8cm), 9(severe pain at 9cm),10(worst imaginable pain at 10cm). Percent change in mean scores = (one minute score-Baseline score) / Baseline score

    Measured: (Base line to 1 minute) (Base line to 5 minutes)(Base line to day 3)(Base line to week 4)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fluoro-Calcium-Phospho-Silicate based dentifrices, 8% Arginine based dentifrices and 8% Strontium Acetate in people with Dentin Hypersensitivity, run by Dow University of Health Sciences at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 11 May 2021. 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 Pakistan. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 May 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percent Change in Mean Score of Pain Response From Baseline on Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale Using Air Blast Stimulus (time frame: (Base line to 1 minute) (Base line to 5 minutes)(Base line to day 3)(Base line to week 4)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04249336, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 11 May 2021.
