Effect of Emdogain® on Soft Tissue Wound Healing

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this randomized, controlled, single-center study is to compare the effects of Emdogain®, a regenerative biomaterial, on post-operative pain, wound healing and inflammation of treated sites after surgical crown lengthening. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the use of Emdogain® in conjunction with crown lengthening surgery improve post-operative soft-tissue healing, decrease inflammation and reduce patient perception of pain compared to crown lengthening without addition of Emdogain®? The treatment group will receive Emdogain® during surgery, and the control group will undergo standard crown lengthening without Emdogain®.

Clinical Trial Description

This randomized, controlled, single-center study intends to investigate the effects of Emdogain® on wound healing, postoperative pain and inflammation of treated sites after crown lengthening procedures on a single site, and to compare the results of this therapy with those of standard crown lengthening treatment on a single site. We have hypothesized that the use of Emdogain® in conjunction with crown lengthening surgery improves post-operative soft-tissue healing, decreases inflammation and reduces patient perception of pain compared to crown lengthening without addition of Emdogain®. Patients were recruited from the Graduate Periodontology clinic at the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Toronto. These patients were referred to the department by dental students in the faculty as well as dentists and dental specialists within the community for crown lengthening surgery, and were subsequently screened for eligibility to participate in the study. After confirmation of eligibility and completion of recruitment, patients were randomized, using a computer-generated randomization table, into the following groups: - Treatment/experimental group: patients undergoing surgical crown lengthening of a single site with application of PrefGel® + Emdogain® - Control group: patients undergoing surgical crown lengthening of a single site with application of PrefGel® only ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

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.
