Gelatin Sponge VS PTFE Membrane for Socket Sealing After Immediate Implant Placement

Egypt20 participantsStarted 2022-06-01

Plain-language summary

Digital panoramas will be made to assess the implant sites. The included patients are assigned to their respective groups randomly. After implant submerging in the study group 2 layers of hemostatic resorbable gelatin sponge is fixed in the implant site; while with the control group PTFE is fixed. After 3 weeks the PTFE was removed while the gelatin sponge should be resorbed. 3 months later the implants are to be assessed for stability and a reverse torque test was used to confirm osseointegration during uncovering. Follow-up appointments at 1,3 weeks and 1,2 \& 3 months were planned.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
