Impacted Tooth clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Application of Surgical Templates in the Surgical Exposure of Impacted Canines

Start date: May 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The first choice therapy in case of palatally impacted canines is their exposure and orthodontic eruption to improve facial esthetics and prevent pathologies associated with impacted teeth and Temporomandibular Joint Disorders. Current solutions in digital dentistry allow the registration of three dimensional imaging datasets such as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and digital impression of the dentition and soft tissues obtained via intraoral scanning using orthodontic planning software. This allows the surgeon to visualize the position of the impacted canine prior to surgery and to design and manufacture a surgical guide to aid in the localization of the impacted tooth during surgery. The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the feasibility of surgical exposure of palatally impacted upper canines with open-eruption technique using a surgical template. The secondary purpose of this study is to compare this method with the conventional free-hand surgical exposure. Patients included in this study are randomly assigned to two study groups. In Group 1 surgical exposure for open eruption of palatally impacted canines is performed following virtual planning using a surgical template. In Group 2 surgical exposure for open-eruption of palatally impacted canines is carried out using the conventional free-hand method. We hypothesize that guided exposure of the impacted canines will be as successful as the conventional method with shorter surgical intervention and higher associated costs.
