About this study

Official title: The Effect of Recurrent Application of Liquid Platelet-rich Fibrin in the Extraction Socket on the Hard and Soft Tissues. A Randomised Controlled Trial

Procedure: Tooth is extracted, then A-PRF+ is placed inside the socket. After that the ridge dimensions is asses clinically at the baseline) in addition to clinical assessment of the gingival biotype at the baseline.

Then patients will be divided into 2 groups:

Group 1: 50% of patients will have recurrent Liquid-PRF injections inside the extraction socket every 2 weeks (A-PRF+, followed by recurrent Liquid-PRF) Group 2: 50% of patients without recurrent (just A-PRF+) After 3 months from extraction: both groups will be assessed clinically (gingival biotype) \& (Ridge dimensions) in order to assess the role of recurrent application of Liquid-PRF on these parameters.

Read the detailed description

In this study, we will select 20 patients who need a simple tooth extraction, then determine the gingival biotype, take a blood sample to prepare A-PRF+ (centrifugation of the patient's blood for 8 min at 1300 rpm using red caps tubes), then do the extraction. After that, A-PRF+ is prepared and inserted into the extraction socket, and sutured using horizontal mattress suturing technique.

After the clinical assessment of the ridge dimensions at the baseline

Then patients will be divided into 2 groups:

Group 1: 10 patients will have recurrent Liquid-PRF injections inside the extraction socket every 2 weeks (A-PRF+, followed by recurrent Liquid-PRF) Liquid-PRF preparation: Centrifugation of the patient's blood for 8 min at 2500 rpm using white caps tubes.

Group 2: 10 patients without recurrent application of Liquid-PRF (just A-PRF+) After 3 months from extraction: both groups will be assessed clinically (gingival biotype) \& (Ridge dimensions) in order to evaluate the effect of recurrent application of Liquid-PRF on these parameters.

Assessment method:

for Hard tissue evaluation (Bone): we assess the dimensions clinically For soft tissue: we will use a periodontal probe to assess the gingival thickness after giving local anesthesia.

What participants receive

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

  • Liquid platelet-rich fibrinOther

    Also called Liquid-PRF

    Liquid platelet-rich fibrin is prepared from the patient's blood and injected into the extraction socket every two weeks (up to 3 months = Just 4 times of application)

  • Advanced Platelet-rich fibrin plusOther

    A-PRF+ is placed into the extraction socket immediately after tooth extraction

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Advanced platelet-rich fibrin plus + Liquid platelet-rich fibrinExperimentalA-PRF plus + Liquid-PRF are prepared from the patient's blood.
Receives: Other: Liquid platelet-rich fibrin; Other: Advanced Platelet-rich fibrin plus
Advanced platelet-rich fibrin plus aloneExperimentalA-PRF+ is prepared from the patient's blood.
Receives: Other: Advanced Platelet-rich fibrin plus

What is being measured

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

  1. Ridge dimensions

    assessment of ridge dimensions 3 months after intervention for both groups. At the baseline it was assessed clinically. After 3 months, the flap was released and the ridge width and height were assessed clinically.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Gingival biotype

    assessment of gingival biotype 3 months after intervention according to gingival thickness (using periodontal probe: if <1 mm = Thin, while if >1 =Thick).

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Liquid platelet-rich fibrin and Advanced Platelet-rich fibrin plus in people with Liquid-PRF and A-PRF Plus, run by Cezar Edward Lahham at 1 site in Palestinian Territories.

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 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 9 Nov 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 Palestinian Territories. 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?

Ridge dimensions (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 2 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 NCT05492357, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Nov 2022.
