About this study

Investigation of bacterial adhesion and bactericide effect ex vivo on different implant restoration materials

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to investigate bacterial attachment and bactericidal effects of different materials used for the transmucosal part of implants. Using a brace, the intraoral biofilm formation in healthy subjects will be measured after 28 hours (24 hours intraorally, 4 hours rest). For this purpose 2 sterile platelets of each of the 8 differently processed materials (16 platelets in total) are inserted into the braces.

The main target parameter is the quantification of the biofilm by crystal violet staining. For this purpose the samples are analyzed by spectrophotometry at a wavelength of 595 nm (OD595).

As secondary target parameter possible bactericidal effects of the materials, which are analyzed by Colony forming units (CFU) determination, are used.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Intraoral apparatusOther

    Eight platelets with different material composition and surface properties are fastened in a holder (carrier rondell) with 15 mm diameter and inserted into the braces. Braces are to be worn for 28 hours in the oral cavity except for meals and oral hygiene procedures. Platelets then are removed and analyzed. After a first course the braces are to be cleaned in chlorhexidine solution in an ultrasonic bath; followed by a second identical course (Braces to be worn for 28 hours in the oral cavity except for meals and oral hygiene procedures).

Study groups in NCT04657757
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intraoral apparatusExperimentalintraoral apparatus in which two platelets of each of the 8 materials (Esteticor Lumina PF; Esteticor Lumina PF - after Lactic acid storage; Pagalinor 2; Esteticor Economic; Pekkton ivory - untreated; Pekkton ivory - rough; Oralloy; Machined Titan Zirconia (TiZr) alloy) are to be examined. Examination is a crystal violet OD595 staining (10 minutes). The color absorbed by the bacteria is then dissolved with a 30% acetic acid and measured spectrophotometrically at 595 nm. The plaque formed on the material surface is removed immediately after removal from the oral cavity and analyzed by determination of Colony Forming Unit (CFU) number.

What is being measured

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

  1. quantification of biofilm

    quantification of the biofilm by crystal violet staining. For this purpose the samples are analyzed by spectrophotometry at a wavelength of 595 nm (OD595).

    Measured: 2x 24hours in a period of about 10 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. number of CFU

    Possible bactericidal effects of the materials, which are analyzed by CFU determination, serve as secondary target parameter.

    Measured: 2x 24hours in a period of about 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intraoral apparatus in people with Dental Diseases, run by University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 3 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 8 Dec 2020. 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 Switzerland. 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.

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?

quantification of biofilm (time frame: 2x 24hours in a period of about 10 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 8 Dec 2020.
