Active clinical trials for "Mucositis"

This is a split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT). After signing the informed consent, patients satisfying the inclusion criteria will undergo supragingival and subgingival professional oral hygiene of both arches performed with ultrasonic instrumentation with PEEK inserts, manual instrumentation with titanium curettes and air polishing with glycine powder. After that, the following treatment will be randomly assigned: Ozoral Pro and Ozoral gel administration and home application for 2 peri-implant mucositis sites. Curasept chlorhexidine gel 1% administration and domiciliary application for 14 days for 2 peri-implant contralateral sites. The study will last 6 months. Patients will be visited at: T0, after 1 month from T0 (T1), after 3 months (T2), after 6 months (T3). Professional hygiene will be performed again at T2 and T3. At each recall session, the following periodontal clinical indices were collected using a probe on each peri-implant site: BOP, GBI, conditions of the marginal mucosa (swelling and erythema), suppuration, migration of the marginal mucosa, PD, PI ,BS.

This is a randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT). After signing the informed consent, patients satisfying the inclusion criteria will undergo supragingival and subgingival professional oral hygiene of both arches performed with ultrasonic instrumentation with PEEK inserts, manual instrumentation with PEEK curettes and air polishing with glycine powder. After that, the sample will be randomly divided into 2 groups based on the domiciliary assigned treatment: Aftoral® Oral Gel solution with Hyaluronic Acid, Xylitol and glycerophosphoinositol for the domiciliary use for 15 days for 2 peri-implant mucositis sites. Unidea® Chlorhexidine digluconate Mouthwash 0,20% administration for the domiciliary application for 15 days for 2 peri-implant sites. The study will last 6 months. Patients will be visited at: T0, after 1 month from T0 (T1), after 3 months (T2), after 6 months (T3). Professional hygiene will be performed again at T2 and T3. At each recall session were collected a satisfaction questionnaire of the products (taste, smell, consistency, persistence and ease of application) and the following periodontal clinical indices, using a PEEK probe on each peri-implant site: conditions of the marginal mucosa (swelling and erythema), migration of the marginal mucosa, PPD (Probing Pocket Depth), BOP% (Bleeding on Probing), BS (Bleeding Score), Suppuration, PCR% (Plaque Control Record),

To examine whether the occurrence of oral mucositis can be reduced by dental oral management in patients by comparing the use of dental oral management through instruction by dental and oral surgeons (dental oral management group) and an observation group (brushing instruction only group) in a randomized, controlled study in females that are using everolimus for estrogen receptor-positive, hormone therapy-resistant refractory breast cancer.

This study seeks to test the recently discovered anti-inflammatory action of statins on inflamed mucosa surrounding dental implants. Hypothesis: The application of 1.2% simvastatin gel will decrease peri-implant inflammation. The pilot study will involve 44 subjects divided into a test and control group. The test group shall receive topical simvastatin gel administered around the implant with a blunt tipped needle. The control group will receive a placebo. Inflammatory state shall be determined at baseline as well as follow up visits at 24 hours, 1 week, and 1 month by clinical indices of inflammation as well as biochemical markers of inflammation gathered from around the implants.

The aim of this study is to assess if ozonized water can be used for the treatment of peri-implant mucositis in patients with dental implants. Patients willl undergo professional dental hygiene also with the use of glycine powders, then they will be randomly divided into two groups: Trial Group: irrigation of peri-implant periodontium with mucositis with ozonized water. Placebo Group: irrigation of peri-implant periodontium with mucositis with water. Periodontal indices will be recorded at the baseline, after 1 and 2 months. After 1 and 2 months, only glycine powders will be performed, together with ozonized water or water irrigation and the collection of periodontal indices.

A prospective study will be conducted at the Department of Oral Medicine, Periodontology, Diagnosis and Oral Radiology Faculty of Dental Medicine, Assiut branch Al-Azhar University. Patients with head and neck cancer under RT, CT treatment participated in this study were selected from South Egypt Cancer Institute. During clinical examination the medical history of the patient will be recorded. Data related to base illness, type and stage of RT treatment, association or not to chemotherapy will be collected during the whole treatment. After clinical examination, the patients will receive a kit containing toothbrush, dentifrice, and subsequent oral hygiene instruction. Then the patients will be classified into 3 groups as follow: Group I (control group): the patients will be treated by using oral care only and evaluation will be done before cancer treatment and weekly till the treatment completed. Group II: the patients will be treated by using 0.15% bezaydamine hydrochloride. All patients were advised to rinse 15 mL of the solution benzydamine for 2 min, four to eight times daily before and during, and for 2 weeks after completion of cancer therapy. Group III: the patients will be treated by using a low-level laser therapy, the irradiations will be done three times a week using low power laser with a wavelength of 870 nm. The irradiation mode will be punctual and in contact, perpendicular to the oral mucosa.

To determine the Chamomilla recutita solution dose needed to reduce the intensity and evolution time of oral mucositis in adult subjects submitted to HSCT.

In this study genomic, proteomic and histological technologies for the search and characterization of epigenetic modifications and molecular or protein markers, useful in the diagnosis and progression of peri-implant diseases and prevention of implant failure will be used.

20 consecutive adult implant patients, presenting the signs of peri-implant mucositis (probing depth ≥4 mm combined with bleeding and/or pus on probing) or initial peri-implantitis (probing depth ≥4 mm, bleeding and suppuration plus radiographic loss of supporting bone ≤30% compared with the situation after implant placement) will be included. Sites will be treated by ultrasonic debridement of the pocket, performed using a piezoceramic ultrasonic device. For the purpose, a Tip will be connected to the Handpiece Led (5 minutes/pocket) . Then, it will be followed by the subgingival use of erythritol powder applied by the use of Handpiece connected to an airflow unit 2x5 seconds/pocket. At this time the subgingival delivery of metronidazole gel will be provided. After instrumentation, patients will rinse with chlorhexidine 0.20% 3 times/day for 2 weeks. At baseline, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months the following parameters will be evaluated: Probing Pocket depth (PPD), Bleeding on Probing (BoP), Clinical Attachment Level (CAL).

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if glutamine can help control and prevent sores, blisters, or inflammation in your mouth or esophagus due to your current treatment. In this study, glutamine will be compared to a placebo. A placebo is not a drug. It looks like the drug but is not designed to treat any disease or illness. It is designed to be compared with a study drug to learn if the study drug has any real effect.
