NCT ID: NCT06463574 Recruiting - Tooth Decay Clinical Trials

Effect of Aging on Micro-tensile Bond Strength and Color Stability of Self-adhesive Resin Composite

Start date: June 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to evaluate the micro-tensile bond strength of a newly self-adhesive resinous restorative material to dentin with and without application of universal bonding system (in-vitro) and to examine it's clinical performance by evaluation of it's color stability and marginal discoloration through a randomized clinical trial (in-vivo).

NCT ID: NCT06447324 Not yet recruiting - Tooth Decay Clinical Trials

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Two Matrix Systems for Restoration of Class II Cavities in Primary Molars

this study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographical efficacy, operator ease, satisfaction and patient comfort in restoring class II cavities in primary molars using Fender Mate system with T-band system.

NCT ID: NCT06354647 Not yet recruiting - Dental Caries Clinical Trials

Zirconia-based Primary Anterior Crowns With Retention Grooves Versus Without Retention Grooves

Start date: June 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research study is to test the effectiveness of two different crowns/caps on teeth for restoration of primary anterior teeth. The two different materials of crowns are esthetic crowns with retentive grooves and without retentive crowns. These crowns are placed on the teeth to restore function, esthetics and prevent further caries and infection.

NCT ID: NCT06354634 Not yet recruiting - Dental Caries Clinical Trials

Start date: July 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research study is to test the effectiveness of two different crowns/caps on teeth for restoration of primary molar teeth. The two different materials of crowns are resin polymer and stainless steel crowns. These crowns are placed on the teeth to restore function and prevent further caries and infection.

NCT ID: NCT06348953 Not yet recruiting - Dental Caries Clinical Trials

Bioactive Versus Non-Bioactive Restorative System in Deep Carious Molars

Start date: April 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research study delves into the effectiveness of bioactive and non-bioactive restorative systems in deep carious permanent molars treated with selective caries removal. Selective caries removal techniques aim to preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible while effectively eliminating carious tissue. The study investigates how the choice of restorative material influences the outcomes of selective caries removal procedures in deep carious lesions. By assessing factors such as restoration integrity, pulpal response, and long-term success rates, the research seeks to provide evidence-based insights into the comparative performance of bioactive and non-bioactive restorative systems in this clinical context.

NCT ID: NCT06318819 Completed - Gingivitis Clinical Trials

Plaque Removal Effectiveness of a Flossing Device Compared to the Conventional Flossing in Adults

Start date: November 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

- Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness in plaque removal of the new device; Dental floss holders and compare the results to the conventional way of flossing. - Methods: Thirty adult male and female participants participated in this randomized, single-use, single-blind clinical study. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups; Group A: Consists of 30 participants in whom Dental Floss Holders (DFH) was constructed to either maxillary or mandibular arch randomly. Group B: Consists of 30 participants in whom conventional flossing (CF) was done to the other arch. Participants attended the first visit for primary impression taking in order to construct the DFH. In the second visit, participants were examined by a blinded examiner to record their plaque index using O'Leary index. Then, they flossed using DFH and CF according to the group they were assigned to. Participants were monitored to ensure proper coverage of all the areas following precise instructions. They then brushed their teeth for approximately 2 minutes using modified bass technique. Next, plaque index was recorded again using the O'leary index. Time was recorded during flossing of each arch. Finally, participants were given a questionnaire to assess their satisfaction of the device. - Results: The differences between the groups showed the DFH group with a 62.8% reduction in whole mouth plaque and 63.3% for proximal plaque compared to 52.9% and 50.4% for the CF group, respectively (p = 0.01). The DFH was more time efficient in removing plaque from the marginal regions with an average time of 00:00:37 in comparison to the CF which averaged in 00:02:07 (p < 0.001). A total of 26 participants (86.7%) preferred using the DFH over the CF. - Conclusion: With the combination of toothbrushing, the Dental Floss Holders is significantly more effective and time efficient than conventional flossing in removing plaque from tooth surfaces.

NCT ID: NCT06301113 Completed - Tooth Decay Clinical Trials

This Research Study Examines the Effects of Cannabidiol-infused Candy on Reducing the Bacteria Causing Tooth Decay, When Comparing it to a Sugar Free Candy on Adults.

Start date: January 27, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of CBD candy versus sugar free candy on reducing the number of bacteria causing tooth decay, in adults The main question is to see whether CBD have any effect on reducing the number of Streptococcus mutans, in the oral cavity the main bacteria causing tooth decay. Participants will be randomly placed in a group, and assigned to take either CBD-infused lozenge (if in the experimental group) or a sugar-free candy (if in the control group) once a day for 15 days. A sample of saliva will be collected and analyzed in a lab before and after consumption of the candy to see whether either product could reduce the harmful bacteria in the mouth.

NCT ID: NCT06286501 Recruiting - Periodontitis Clinical Trials

Targeting of Preventive Treatment for Adolescents at Risk of Oral Diseases

LumoPrevent
Start date: April 18, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to identify adolescent patients that are at risk of developing oral diseases, and to assess if targeted preventive oral treatment with antibacterial dual-light therapy as an adjunctive treatment method can have a positive impact in preventing oral diseases from emerging.

NCT ID: NCT06195449 Not yet recruiting - Tooth Decay Clinical Trials

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Alkasite Restorative Material Versus Glass Ionomer Cement

GIC
Start date: June 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the clinical and radiographic performance of Alkasite restorative material versus glass ionomer in restoration of primary molars.

NCT ID: NCT06130189 Recruiting - Diet Habit Clinical Trials

Nutrition, Physical Activity, Mediterranean Diet Adherence, and Children's Oral Health

Start date: October 17, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The main risk factors for dental caries are inadequate oral hygiene practices, cariogenic bacteria, and cariogenic diet. Among these factors, diet has a different dual relationship with dental caries. Dietary habits have the potential to be a risk factor for dental caries impaired oral and dental health can also lead to deficiencies in dietary intake. Studies have shown that there is a decrease in gum and periodontal diseases in the adult age group with a diet compatible with the Mediterranean diet. This cross-sectional study aims to examine the relationship between a diet compatible with the Mediterranean Diet and dental caries and gum health status in children. We hypothesize that children will have better gum health and less tooth decay with a diet compatible with the Mediterranean diet.
