Filter by:1. Objectives: To evaluate the influence of the shape and contour of implant-supported restorations on peri-implant soft and hard tissues by using an intraoral scanner. 2. Material and methods: 1. Number of patients to be treated: 120 2. Number of visits per patient: 1 3. Brief description of the different techniques used in the study, authorized and validated in the literature (3-5 lines). A clinical and radiographic evaluation of the dental implants of those patients who are undergoing maintenance therapy treated by the Department of Periodontics of the International University of Catalonia prior to 2017 will be carried out. Additionally, a digital scan of the crown will be carried out using a intraoral scanner. Finally, patients will fill out a questionnaire about their routine dental care. 4. Benefits and harms of participating in the study for the patient Participating in this study implies irradiating the patient through a periapical x-ray in order to assess the bone level of their implants and therefore be able to diagnose the presence or absence of peri-implant disease. Regarding the possible benefits, the patient will help the scientific community to determine the ideal contour and shape of the implant-supported restoration that will prevent the appearance of peri-implant diseases. Likewise, patients will undergo an exhaustive clinical and radiographic review that will allow their dental and periodontal status to be updated. 5. Alternative treatment in case the patient does not wish to participate in the clinical study As this is an observational study, there is no alternative treatment. The patient will have absolute freedom to decline to participate in the study. 6. Treatment to be carried out in the event that complications arise in the patient, once the clinical study has begun If after handling the prosthesis, it is detected that any of the screws that support the prostheses are loose or defective, the MORE department will be informed in order to replace said accessory. On the other hand, they would be informed in the same way in case of detecting any complication/alteration with the patient's implant-supported crowns. 7. Material needed to carry out the study ( To carry out this study, you will need posterior radiographic positioners, radiographs, an intraoral scanner (3Shape Trios®), the implant analogs or replicas, and a basic periodontal examination set (exploratory probe, periodontal probe, Nabers probe, mirror). and tweezers). 3. Evaluation of experimental and statistical results (3 lines) - The data obtained will be analyzed through a descriptive statistical analysis (mean, median and standard deviations). The qualitative variables will be expressed in frequencies and percentages. In addition, logistic regression analyzes will be performed to determine the association between peri-implant status (at the implant and patient level) and the angle/emergence of implant-supported prostheses.
Introduction: Oral mucositis is one of the most frequent complications associated with chemotherapy, occurring in up to 90% children receiving treatment for cancer. Different treatment modalities have been suggested with inconsistent results. Recently, it has been suggested that the use of laser could reduce the grade of oral mucositis and alleviate the symptoms. Aim: To evaluate and compare the efficacy between the high (Infrared) wavelength laser and low (red) wavelength laser in management of chemotherapy induced oral mucositis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Methods: This study is a randomized, prospective, double-blind trial that will include acute lymphoblastic leukemia inpatients receiving induction chemotherapy between the age of 3 and 14years who develop oral mucositis grade 2 or more. These patients will be randomized by the Clinical Epidemiology unit using a computer-based method into three groups. Group I: will be treated with Laser wavelength 660 nm, group II: will be treated with laser wavelength 970 nm, and group III: will receive mock treatment which is the exact repetition of the treatment modality but without any laser emission. All the patients will follow the hospital standard management for oral mucositis. All patients will be assessed for pain score using CHIMES, oral mucositis using NCI-CTCAE scale V5 on days, 0,4,7 and 11. As well as measuring the duration of the lesion.
The purpose of this study is to learn if virgin coconut oil (VCO) mouth rinse can help prevent oral mucositis. The Study Investigator will compare standard of care mucositis prevention rinses with the VCO mouth rinse added to the standard of care mucositis prevention rinses. The severity of oral mucositis between the 2 groups will be evaluated. Some of the standard of care rinses that can be used to prevent mucositis are normal saline, Benadryl (diphenhydramine), Mylanta, lidocaine, or other combinations.
As mentioned above, several prior studies have shown the positive effects of oral use of aloe vera juice in managing chemotherapy and radiation-induced oral mucositis and esophagitis. This study aims to add to the existing body of research around aloe vera juice and its effects on oral mucositis and esophagitis. The intention is to determine whether aloe vera juice should be considered as part of standard treatment.
the objective of this study is to determine the incidence of peri-implant mucositis in patients with treated periodontitis and enrolled in periodontal maintenance and to evaluate the associated risk indicators. An analytical prospective observational study will be carried out, with an initial follow-up of 12 months.
This is a single center pilot study evaluating intraoral photobiomodulation for the prevention of oral mucositis in patients undergoing myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT). Patients who are planned for alloHCT will receive daily intraoral photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) using a novel LED device. The name of the study device involved in this study is: - THOR LX2.3 with LED Lollipop
This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of topical olive oil application both clinically and biochemically as a suitable affordable treatment modality for prevention and management of radiation oral mucositis and its associated pain for head and neck cancer patients receiving radiotherapy.
This study aims to propose an alternative and auxiliary methodology for the prevention and treatment of Oral Mucositis (OM) in patients undergoing radiotherapy or radio and chemotherapy for head and neck neoplasms through the use of copaiba-based mouthwash, since the treatment that currently has proven efficacy for the prevention of OM(Low Power Laser Therapy) cannot be applied in tumor regions due to the risk of stimulating the tissue proliferation of malignant cells.
This study explores the effects of hydrogen-rich water on alleviating the radiation-induced acute mucositis in head and neck cancer patients
Head and neck cancer (HNC) are among the most frequent malignancies in the world. The main treatment modalities for HNC are surgical excision, radiotherapy (RT), and chemotherapy (CT). Severe oral sequelae such as oral mucositis (OM), dysgeusia, opportunistic infections, trismus, and xerostomia/hyposalivation can affect HNC patients due to oncological treatment with RT and QT. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) with an intraoral low-power laser has been studied as an excellent tool in the management of OM and xerostomia and thus improves the tolerability of RT in the head and neck region. The aim of this multicenter, randomized, single-blind clinical trial is to compare the effects of two photobiomodulation protocols (intraoral application low-level laser and defocused extraoral application of high-power laser) in the management of oral mucositis (OM) and xerostomia in head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy (RT). It is expected defocused extraoral high-power photobiomodulation shows results as good as intraoral photobiomodulation on the management of oral mucositis.
