About this study

Official title: Assessment of the Effect of Covered Versus Uncovered Human Amniotic Membrane In Soft Tissue Healing During Alveolar Ridge Preservation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Statement of the problem: Alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extractions is considered a challenge in oral surgery daily practice. Dental extraction is a traumatic procedure which leads to loss of alveolar bone. The alveolar bone remodeling, which occurs after tooth extraction, leads to vertical and horizontal bone volume loss. Although placentally derived allografts have been widely applied in medical procedures over the past 100 years, their use in the dental field is relatively new.

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of covering versus uncovering the HAM on soft tissue healing after alveolar ridge preservation procedure using customized splints.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of covering versus uncovering the HAM on soft tissue healing after alveolar ridge preservation procedure using customized splints.

materials and methods: Careful extraction of the selected tooth will be performed. Then, the extraction sockets will be randomly allocated into two groups. The HAM particulate will be packed into the extraction socket as a standard method for both groups. Group A (n=24) socket will be covered with Human amnion membrane while group B (n=24) socket will be covered with the prefabricated acrylic splint. Soft tissue healing will be assessed (1ry outcome) every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week. Postoperative pain and swelling will be recorded daily by the patient for the 1st two weeks post surgically. Postoperative medication will be prescribed to the patient and postoperative instructions will be explained in detail. Follow-up will be performed to assess the parameters and to ensure performing proper oral hygiene. Data collected will be tabulated and statistically analyzed.

What participants receive

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

  • Acrylic splintProcedure or surgery

    The HAM particulate material will be packed into the extraction socket then the HAM will be tucked over the extraction socket then the socket plug will be maintained in place with approximating sutures using 5-0 resorbable suture material. The surgical site covered with the custom acrylic splint.

  • No splintProcedure or surgery

    The HAM particulate material will be packed into the extraction socket then the HAM will be tucked over the extraction socket then the socket plug will be maintained in place with approximating sutures using 5-0 resorbable suture material. The surgical site will not be covered

What is being measured

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

  1. Soft tissue healing

    Surface area/intraoral Scanner in mm

    Measured: every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. post operative pain

    Visual analog score ( score from 0 to 10 in which 0 is no pain and 10 is maximum pain )

    Measured: every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Acrylic splint and No splint in people with Badly Broken Maxillary Premolars Indicated for Extraction, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 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 Egypt. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Soft tissue healing (time frame: every day for the first week, day after day second week, once in third and fourth week). 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 15 Apr 2025.
