NCT ID: NCT04507009 Completed - Alveolar Osteitis Clinical Trials

Clinical Investigation of the Efficacy of CGF and Ozone in the Treatment of Alveolar Osteitis

Start date: August 1, 2020
Phase: N/A

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of CGF and Ozone in the treatment of alveolitis and to develop a new treatment protocol that can enable a quick and effective solution of this clinical problem, which significantly affects patients' comfort of life.

NCT ID: NCT04151147 Completed - Alveolar Osteitis Clinical Trials

Effect of CGF on Frequency of Alveolar Osteitis Following Partially Erupted Mandibular Third Molar Surgery

Start date: January 2, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this prospective study was to assess the effectiveness of concentrated growth factors (CGFs) in preventing the development of alveolar osteitis (AO) after the extraction of partially-erupted mandibular third molars. This study was designed as a randomized controlled clinical trial. In each case, one socket received CGFs and the other served as a control. The predictor variable was the CGFs application and the sides were categorized as 'CGFs' and 'non-CGFs'. The outcome variable was the development of AO during the first postoperative week. Also, demographic variable included age and gender was noted.

NCT ID: NCT04091399 Completed - Alveolar Osteitis Clinical Trials

First-in-man Study of Adult Patients Suffered From Alveolar Osteitis Treated Using Stomatological Tamponade Contipro

Start date: September 11, 2015
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Alveolar Osteitis (AO) is a complication following extraction of a tooth. AO manifests by localized pain in and around the extraction site where the postoperative blood clot has been disintegrated. The aim of this study was to determinate if there are any concerns of use of a pharmacological drug composed of an octenidine and lyophilized hyaluronic acid in a treatment of AO. The tested drug is a sponge-like material composed solely of fully absorbable medicaments. It was designed to serve as non-toxic, slow-dissolving antiseptic which adheres to mucosa and so obturate the wound. The treatment was considered effective when the pain subsided to < 20mm VAS in < 8 days of treatment.

NCT ID: NCT03992144 Completed - Dry Socket Clinical Trials

Prevention of Dry Socket by Means of Single Preoperative Antibiotics Compared to Conventional Therapy

Start date: October 1, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Background: One of the commonest post-operative complications after tooth extraction is dry socket; it can be defined as postoperative pain in and around the tooth extraction site, which increases in severity at any time between 3rd to 5th post-operative days along with disintegrated blood clot within the tooth extraction socket with or without halitosis. The exact etiology is unclear therefor prevention remains the main beneficial therapy. Various factors are thought to play an important role in etiology of dry socket including, anaerobes, fibrinolysis, traumatic extractions, frequent spiting and rinsing, oral contraceptive pill and smoking. Numerous approaches have been tried for prevention of dry socket; include antiseptic mouthwashes, anti-fibrinolytic agents, antibiotics, intra-socket dressings and medicated packing into the extraction wound for example chlorohexidine mouthwashes, warm saline rinses, gelatin sponges, occlusive dressings and oxidized cellulose sponge. Purpose of the study is to compare the role of single preoperative oral dose of metronidazole with amoxicillin in hindrance of dry socket compared to conventional therapy after removal of mandibular third molar of class 2 impaction. Objectives: To find out effective treatment for prevention of dry socket among preoperative single oral dose of metronidazole and amoxicillin compared to conventional therapy. Methods: A double blind randomized control trial in which patients requiring surgical extraction of lower 3rd molar of class 2 impactions were selected for this study. Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups, one of the groups had received single preoperative oral dose of metronidazole one hour before extraction, second group was treated with single oral dose of amoxicillin an hour before tooth extraction and third group was treated with conventional therapy. Patients were asked to visit on 5th postoperative day or before it in case the pain persist or reoccur.

NCT ID: NCT03641482 Completed - Alveolar Osteitis Clinical Trials

NBF Gingival Gel Application After Impacted Lower Third Molar Surgery

Start date: September 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: Alveolar osteitis is one of the most frequent complications after lower third molar extraction, and is usually accompanied by inflammation, pain and poor wound healing. Several local interventions have been used to reduce these complications with limited effectiveness. Purpose: To clinically evaluate the use of propolis extract, nanovitamin C and nanovitamin E gel for the prevention of surgical complications related to impacted lower third molar extraction. Methods: A randomized, triple-blind, split-mouth, pilot study is being performed in patients needing bilateral lower third molar extraction with similar surgical difficulty. Surgical extractions are randomly being performed and NBF gingival gel (TG) or placebo (PBG) are randomly being applied inside postextraction sockets by a blinded surgeon. The patients are being instructed to apply it 3 times/day in the surgical wound for 7 days. One month later, the contralateral wisdom tooth is being extracted and the opposite gel is being applied. Alveolar osteitis (AO) is being diagnosed following Blum's criteria. Swelling is being assessed by measuring the facial perimeter. Wound healing is being evaluated with a semi-quantitative scale as good, satisfactory or insufficient. Postoperative pain is being recorded using a visual analog scale (VAS) for 7 days. Analgesic pill intake is being recorded by each patient. Variables are being registered by a blinded researcher to 3M extractions at one, two, three and seven postoperative days.

NCT ID: NCT03494972 Completed - Clinical trials for Post-Operative Wound Infection

A Tetracycline Drain Reduces Alveolar Osteitis in Third Molar Surgery

Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

NCT ID: NCT00118820 Completed - Infection Clinical Trials

Antibiotic Efficacy in Third Molar Surgery

Start date: March 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Despite over 50 years of antibiotic use and multiple clinical investigations (>50), no definitive studies exist to confirm or refute the use of systemic antibiotics to prevent postoperative inflammatory complications after third molar (M3), aka "wisdom teeth" removal. Among patients having M3s extracted, does the administration of systemic prophylactic antibiotics when compared to placebo, decrease the rate of postoperative inflammatory complications? The first specific aim of the study is to implement a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to determine if systemic prophylactic antibiotics, when compared to placebo, decrease the rate of postoperative alveolar osteitis (AO) after M3 extraction. For this proposal, postoperative AO is the primary outcome variable. The second specific aim is to implement a pilot study using a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to determine if systemic prophylactic antibiotics, when compared to placebo, decrease the rate of postoperative infection after M3 extraction. For the purposes of this proposal, postoperative infection is a secondary outcome variable. Based on sample size estimates, we believe it will be necessary to implement a multi-year trial to address the second specific aim definitively. As such, we will use the experience and preliminary results derived from this clinical trial to develop and implement a future large scale clinical trial. The third specific aim is to identify risk factors associated with postoperative inflammatory complications in order to develop a model to predict if the prophylactic administration of antibiotics will prevent the postoperative inflammatory complications of alveolar osteitis and infection following the removal of M3's. The long-term goal of this project is to provide compelling clinical evidence to support recommendations regarding the use of systemic antibiotics in this setting and alter clinical practice based on the results of a well-done, definitive clinical investigation.
