About this study
Official title: Effects of Carbonated Beverage Consumption on Oral pH and Bacterial Proliferation in Adolescents: A Randomized Crossover Clinical Trial.
The objective of this research is to evaluate the oral modifications caused by different types of coke drinks (regular coke and diet coke). The salivary and the dental biofilm pH will be determined in the first minutes after their consumption. Additionally, the bacterial proliferation of dental biofilm will be evaluated.
Read the detailed description
Sugary soft drinks modify oral pH and favor bacterial proliferation and are associated with the development of caries. Information on the effects of consuming carbonated drinks without sucrose is limited.
In this crossover clinical trial, salivary pH and dental biofilm pH will be determined. These will be registered at 0, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, and 60 min after the participants ingested 355 ml of natural water, soft drink with sucrose, soft drink with aspartame/acesulfame K or carbonated water on different days (1 week between each other). In addition, dental biofilm cultures will be conducted at 0 and 120 minutes after intake of each beverage to determine Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation.
The patients will be invited to participate and informed of the potential risks. Those who signed informed consent and have eligibility requirements will be randomized in a double-blind manner.
The data collection will be carried out in records forms, including verifying the patient's previous conditions, identification data (ID, age, gender,) and possible adverse events. If any adverse effect could exist, the research team will be notified for the implementation of possible changes.
A HANNA HI 221 potentiometer (HANNA Instruments Inc. Woonsocket-RI-USA, Romania) will be used to determine salivary pH and dental biofilm pH. The electrode will be calibrated using buffer solutions of pH 4.0 and 7.0 for correct records. The electrode will be washed with distilled water before and after each sample. The data will be collected by 2 verifiers, guaranteeing that the information obtained is the same as that indicated on the potentiometer; a stopwatch will indicate the exact time for obtaining the pH values.
Samples of dental biofilm will be taken, and Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation will be evaluated at 0 and 120 minutes after taking each beverage. The samples will be cultivated in suitable conditions, identified and compared with ATCC. The samples obtained will be analyzed in the same place of collection to avoid possible contamination.
Sample size with an alpha=0.05 and a beta=0.8 include 22, considering 20% losses.
Variables will be described with frequencies and percentages or medians and interquartile range (IQR) according to the variable type. Salivary pH and dental biofilm at different times will be compared using ANOVA analysis with adjustment for multiple comparisons using Bonferroni correction. Changes in the bacterial proliferation of the dental biofilm at 0 and 120 min will be compared using the Wilcoxon test and intergroup changes will be compared using the Kruskal-Wallis test. The statistical program SPSS v. 22 will be used and statistical significance will be considered with a p ≤ 0.05

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Natural Water in people with pH and Saliva, run by Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez at 1 site in Mexico.
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 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 29 Jun 2022. 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 Mexico. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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?
Mean salivary pH with regular coke (time frame: 0 minutes). The study lists 28 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05437874, which also lists 30 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 29 Jun 2022.
