Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 40 years
  • All sexes

  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • • Age range between 18 and 40 years.
  • Patients with no systemic diseases, syndromic abnormalities, or proven/suspected milk protein allergy and/or sensitivity
  • Patients with fair oral hygiene (mild to moderate plaque accumulation).

  • Bio-smart Light Cured Protective Shield with bioactive S-PRG (Surface Pre- Reacted Glass ionomer) filler technology (PRG Barrier Coat) by (By SHOFU Inc., Japan).Drug

    Surface reaction-type pre-released glass ionomer (S-PRG) fillers containing dental materials are now commercially available. It was shown that PRG filler is an active ingredient with the ability to release and recharge fluoride ions. In addition, S-PRG fillers release five other active ions, Sr2þ, SiO3 2, Naþ, BO3 3, and Al3þ. S-PRG filler has a modulation effect on acidic conditions, causing the surrounding environment to become weakly alkaline upon contact with water or acidic solutions. This effect was thought to be brought by Sr, B, Na, and F ions released from S-PRG filler. A fluoride-releasing coating material containing S-PRG filler (PRG BarrierCoat®, SHOFU, Japan) was manufactured as a coating material to suppress dentin hypersensitivity and prevent caries on smooth surface areas.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Remineralization efficacy.

    Determination of lesion level by DIAGNOdent which provides a laser fluorescence feedback to give a numerical readout reflecting the amount of demineralization

    Measured: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Caries lesion activity assessment

    Visual- tactile. The Nyvad criteria is a visual-tactile caries classification system designed to detect the activity and severity of caries lesions, the diagnostic criteria reflect the entire continuum of caries, ranging from clinically sound surfaces to non-cavitated and microcavitated caries lesions in enamel to frank cavitation into the dentine

    Measured: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Bio-smart Light Cured Protective Shield with bioactive S-PRG (Surface Pre- Reacted Glass ionomer) filler technology (PRG Barrier Coat) by (By SHOFU Inc., Japan). in people with Caries, Dental and Remineralization, 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 5 inclusion and 7 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 1 Apr 2022. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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

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?

Change in Remineralization efficacy. (time frame: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months). 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 1 Apr 2022.
