About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Ice Cream Cone Technique as a Flapless Guided Bone Regenerative Method With Immediate Implant Placement in Management of Patients With Labial Plate Dehiscence: A Case Series

Immediate tooth replacement with immediate implants into fresh extraction sockets has become a common and promising clinical procedure in daily practice in regard of implant survival, osseointegration and esthetic outcomes . However, there are some challenges encountered in the treatment of patients with labial bone plate dehiscence. Deficiency of facial bone anatomy has a negative impact on esthetics and is a critical causative factor for esthetic implant complications and failures ..

Few studies investigated the reconstitution of labial bone plate dehiscence using ice cream cone technique and their results showed adequate bone regeneration 4 to 6 months where no labial plate was present prior to grafting technique. Ice cream cone technique as a flapless grafting technique in conjunction with immediate implant placement in patients with labial bone plate dehiscence requires further studies for its clinical relevance and approval.

Read the detailed description

Classical methods of guided bone regenerative methods succeeded to partially reconstitute the lost labial plate of bone using different grafting materials with barrier membranes.

This might be attributed to the necessity of using a full mucoperiosteal flap which interrupts the vascular supply to the bone and jeopardizing the process of total facial bone regenerative process. Therefore, Tan-Chu et al., (2014) described in a case report an innovative technique using resorbable collagen membrane in the shape of ice cream cone and allograft in the reconstitution of labial plate in patients with socket type II after extraction with folding the membrane to seal the socket and containing the blood clot to allow for occupation of osteogenic cell population without raising a flap. This technique showed an adequate bone regeneration with net result of 1.32 mm prior to no labial plate present before grafting. Hence, using immediate implant placement with the conjunction of the ice cream cone technique in regeneration of labial plate of bone needs to be further assessed to evaluate its clinical outcomes.

What participants receive

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

  • Ice cream cone technique with immediate implant as a flapless bone regenerative method in management of patients with labial plte dehiscenceProcedure or surgery

    Atraumatic extraction will be done The extraction socket will be debrided to remove any residual debris using surgical curettes Socket walls will be checked using a periodontal probe to ensure integrity of all sockets walls except the labial bone plate which must show a dehiscence. Implant placement will be done. All implants will engage at least 3 mm apical to the apical end of the socket with adequate primary stability Resorbable collagen membrane will be cut confirming to the size and shape of the defect of labial bone plate dehiscence. The membrane will be placed against internal surface of the extraction socket against the remaining buccal plate of bone. The gap between the collagen membrane and the implant fixture will be filled with xenograft particulates.The membrane will be folded in palatal direction to seal the socket in an ice cream cone shape, then will be secured using non-resorbable sutures

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in buccal/labial vertical bone dimensions

    Vertical bone dimension will be measured at day 0 and 6 months post-operative

    Measured: 6 months post operative

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Changes in labial/buccal plate thickness

    Measured at day 0 and 6 months post-operative using Cone beam tomography

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Keratinized tissue width

    Measured using william's graduated probe

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Gingival thickness

    Measured using william's graduated probe

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Post operative pain measured with VAS scale

    VAS scale from 0 to 10, where 0 no pain and 10 with highest pain

    Measured: 1 week -2 weeks

  5. Post-operative patient satisfaction with Yes or No question

    Yes or No question of overall patient satisfaction of the procedure

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ice cream cone technique with immediate implant as a flapless bone regenerative method in management of patients with labial plte dehiscence in people with Dental Implant and Guided Bone Regeneration, run by Cairo University.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Dec 2020. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 buccal/labial vertical bone dimensions (time frame: 6 months post operative). 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 29 Dec 2020.
