About this study

Official title: Comparison of Masticatory Performance of Bilateral Balanced Occlusion and Lingualized Occlusion in Complete Denture Patients

This is a randomized control trial to compare masticatory performance in complete dentures with bilateral balanced occlusion or lingualized occlusion.

Read the detailed description

This study is a randomized control trial to compare the masticatory efficiency of complete dentures with bilateral balanced occlusion with that of lingualized occlusion . Grouping of participants was carried out. Participants divided into two groups one receiving complete dentures with bilateral balanced occlusion and the other group receiving complete dentures with lingualized occlusion . Each participant provided with 15g of peanuts and instructed to chew until ready to swallow . The chew material than spat into the designated container and participants asked to rinse their mouth with water , with the rinse being collected in the same container . The collected material than sieved through 10-Mesh sieve followed by drying the sieved content on blotting paper for 30 minutes. The dried material subsequently weight with an electric balance with precision of 0.01 grams . Masticatory efficiency assessed through mean weight of chewed peanuts.

What is being measured

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

  1. Masticatory Efficiency in Complete Dentures by weighing the dried chewed material through electric balance

    The chewed material that has been sieved through 10-mesh sieve and dried through blotting paper for 30 minutes weighted using an electronic balance with a precision of 0.01 grams . Statistical analysis performed to evaluate masticatory efficiency based on the mean weight of chewed peanuts.

    Measured: upto 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing complete denture with bilateral balanced occlusion and complete denture with lingualized occlusion in people with Masticatory Performance, run by Armed Forces Institute of Dentistry, Pakistan at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 6 Feb 2025. 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 Pakistan. 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?

Masticatory Efficiency in Complete Dentures by weighing the dried chewed material through electric balance (time frame: upto 24 weeks). 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 6 Feb 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
