In a crossover, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, 40 volunteers will receive the following formulations: hydrogels containing LAs (local anesthetic) - lidocaine and prilocaine (both at 2.5%) encapsulated in CLN (XAN-CLN) or not (XAN-CLN ), EMLA (topical anesthetic available on the market) and placebo hydrogel. The formulations will be applied for 2 minutes, bilaterally on the palatal mucosa (first premolar region), in two distinct sessions. Soon after removal of the topical formulation, an AL will be performed at the region using 0.3 mL of anesthetic solution at an injection speed of 1 mL/min. Pain resulting from needle insertion and LA injection will be measured using two visual analog scales (VAS).
The objectives of this randomized clinical trial (RCT) were: 1. To compare the efficiency of splinting by two composite materials in terms of retention of material 2. To compare adhesive point dimension between the two groups 3. To compare time taken to place and remove the splint 4. To assess the efficacy of bulkfill flowable in reducing mobility of luxated teeth.
Self-care and self-medication are commonly the treatments of choice for the management of minor ailments. Minor ailments can be treated through community pharmacy using a Minor Ailment Service (MAS). The INDICA+PRO Impact Study, evaluated the clinical, economic and humanistic impact of a MAS, concluding that community pharmacies could greatly benefit the health system. Thus, the following objectives were defined for the INDICA+PRO implementation study. The primary objective is to implement a standardised MAS in usual practice in community pharmacy in Spain. The secondary objectives include an evaluation of the clinical and economic outcomes and the role and impact of two different models of change agents. A pragmatic study with an effectiveness-implementation hybrid design type 3 will be undertaken using the Framework for the Implementation of Services in Pharmacy (FISpH). The study will be carried between October 2020 and December 2022. Two type of practice change facilitators FaFa and SEFaFa. Their main function, using the Observe-Plan-Do-Study-Act process, will be to facilitate the implementation through individualised continuous support to providers of the MAS. The depth and breadth of support to pharmacist providers by each type of change agents will vary. Pharmaceutical Associations (PA) and/or Spanish Society of Community Pharmacy (SEFAC) will invite community pharmacies/pharmacists. Participating pharmacists will need to sign a commitment form. The second study population will consist of patients presenting with minor ailments or requesting a non-prescription medication. Recruitment of patients will be carried out by the pharmacist providers. The inclusion criteria will be: patients or caregivers (aged ≥18 years, or younger if they are accompanied by an adult) presenting with 31 minor ailments, grouped into five categories (respiratory, moderate pain, digestive, dermatological and other) with pre-agreed referral protocols. Other symptoms may be included at the discretion of the pharmacists. The exclusion criteria will be patients who do not provide informed consent. The patient/pharmacist intervention will consist of a MAS protocol adapted for each symptom. The consultation will be record in an electronic data capture system (SEFAC eXPERT®-) that provides a step-by-step approach with protocols and clinical information embedded. The FISpH model will be used to guide the implementation of MAS. Two types of change agents, FaFas and SeFaFas, previously trained for 18 hours, will be used to facilitate the implementation. During each of the stages (exploration, preparation, testing and operation, and initial sustainability), strategies will be used by FaFas and SeFaFas to moderate implementation factors. The impact of strategies will be evaluated. Data on pharmacy/pharmacist's provider performance and patient outcomes will be provided to pharmacist, change agents and PA and SEFAC. FaFas and SeFaFas will have a classification system for barriers and facilitators derived from the constructs in the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). The classification system for implementation strategies consists of an adaptation of the facilitation activities listed by Dogherty et al. These will be documented in an electronic data capture system. FaFas will train their pharmacists (max. of 25 pharmacies) for 6 hours and subsequently provide at least monthly follow-up. The research team will provide ongoing feedback and support to the FaFas and SeFaFas through periodically, hold group meetings by video conference between the research group and all the FaFas and SeFaFas. The research group will provide formal reports on the implementation process and patient outcomes. Other forms of communication such as emails, telephone calls or WhatsApp messaging will also be available. Implementation and patient consultation process and outcome variables will be measured such as reach, fidelity and integration. Outcome service indicators will be clinical, economic and humanistic. A patient follow up will occur at a maximum of 10 days. Continuous variables will be reported using mean and standard deviation, or median and percentiles. Categorical variables will be reported using percentages. T Student's test or the ANOVA test or Kruskal-Wallis. χ2 test, Fisher's exact test or Yate's chi-squared will also be used. To determine the relationship between the dependent and the independent variables, logistic regression models will be performed including the variables with statistical significance in the bivariate model. The level of significance will be set at p <0.05. Machine learning and big data techniques are being considered for predictive modelling. The research team will only have access to de-identified data of pharmacists and patients. This study protocol has been approved by the Granada Research Ethics Committee on the 5th February 2020.
The study aims at evaluating the effect of an oral health educational program on the knowledge and self-reported protocol of primary school teachers in Beni-Suef towards traumatic dental injuries.
"For 12 years, the odontology service of the Pitié-Salpêtrière hospital group (GHPS) has been responsible for day and night dental emergency care. Several surveys have been conducted in order to analyze the sociological characteristics of the patients and the typology of the acts performed. These studies indicate that pain is the main reason for consultations, cited by 60 to 80% of patients. So far, very few studies have been done in the context of emergencies. Very recently, a study was undertaken on the satisfaction of patients consulting the odontological emergencies of the GHPS, during a thesis work. This study, carried out in collaboration with the URC Pitié Salpêtrière, under analysis, relates to the satisfaction of patients consulting the odontological emergencies of the GHPS during the day and week, Monday to Friday, excluding night and week emergencies -end (WE). An additional study (URGDENT-NW) aiming at completing this study by focusing on patients consulting the emergency room at night and during the weekend is also in progress. The COVID19 Crisis changed the organization and the venue of patients at the emergency dental service. Therefore this project, based on the same protocol as URGENT and URGDENT-WE, aims at evaluating the Odontology Emergency Reception Service (SAUO) during the COVID 19 epidemy. It will be carried out in the form of a survey whose objective is to assess: on the one hand, the effectiveness of the care provided in this emergency functional unit, and on the other hand the satisfaction of the patients after their passage to the emergency room ."

Attendance at night and during WE is important because it is sociologically and medically different from that of day and week. It is therefore important to complete this study by focusing on patients consulting the emergency room at night and during the weekend. This work therefore responds to a request from the Odontology Emergency Reception Service (SAUO) of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital Group. It will be carried out in the form of a survey whose objective is to assess: on the one hand, the effectiveness of the care provided in this emergency functional unit, and on the other hand the satisfaction of the patients after their passage to the emergency room .
Factors affecting the pulpal prognosis of injured teeth. Dental injuries may affect the survival of teeth. It is recommended to monitor the injured teeth at regular intervals to ensure that the appropriate treatment is delivered promptly. In order to conclude what treatment is required, a correct diagnosis must be reached. However, reaching this diagnosis can be difficult as injured teeth often respond erroneously to many of the diagnostic tests used, thereby affecting our ability to interpret the results. This study aims to identify the clinical factors that affect the ability of the blood supply of a tooth to survive an injury. This will help ensure that patients are provided with the appropriate treatment with the avoidance of delays that may affect the long-term survival of the tooth. Patients that attend the Edinburgh Dental Institute trauma clinic will be invited to participate in this study. The patients, seen on this clinic, are assessed in regular intervals in a systematic way, as per accepted and validated international guidelines on the subject of dental trauma. There are specific investigations and clinical assessments that are carried out on the initial and each review appointment. The study will attempt to identify those teeth that lose their vitality at different points following the injury and will attempt to link this to the nature of the injury suffered. The data will be collected from the patients' routine dental trauma assessment and no additional investigations will be required. As per routine practice the patients are reviewed for one year following their injury unless otherwise indicated. All responses to the investigations will be collected and combined to identify the prognostic factors associated with the loss of vitality of traumatised teeth.
To evaluate the effect of topical tetracycline and dexamethasone on periodontal and pulpal regeneration of avulsed permanent teeth after an observation period between 9-16 years.
The aim of this study was to perform a clinical and microbiological evaluation of teeth with incomplete apexogenesis and traumatic necrosis that were treated with a revascularization technique, evaluating the microbial reduction after the use a double antibiotic paste. Furthermore, the investigation also aims to identify the presence of Enterococcus faecalis and Porphyromomas gingivalis within the root canal system.
