Scientific title
Study objectivesThis is a multi-centre randomised controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of Ledermix® and Ultracal XS® on the type of healing (favourable or unfavourable) following tooth avulsion and replantation.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedTooth avulsion and replantation
InterventionPulp extirpation as early as possible (Day 0–10) following tooth avulsion and placement of Ledermix® versus pulp extirpation at Day 7–10 and placement of Ultracal XS® (non setting calcium hydroxide).
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Ledermix®, Ultracal XS®
Primary outcome measureTo compare the effect of these two root canal pastes on the periodontal healing and consequent tooth survival.
Secondary outcome measuresTo evaluate the effectiveness of a web based computer database for data collection in a multi-centred randomised controlled trial for two types of treatment for avulsion injuries.

Key inclusion criteriaThere are two ways to be accepted onto the trial; acute and delayed presentation to the specialist unit.

Inclusion criteria for acute presentation are:
1. Patients who have avulsed a tooth that has been replanted and are under the age of 16 years
2. The tooth has completed root development with or without an open apex (as these teeth have no chance of pulpal regeneration)
3. With no more than 20 minutes dry extra-alveolar time
4. A maximum total time of one hour has elapsed with the tooth being kept outside the mouth in milk or other storage media and a maximum of 20 minutes being kept in dry conditions
5. With no previous endodontic treatment carried out
6. The patient presents to the specialist unit within ten days following the injury (this ensures that the patient has a chance of randomly being entered into one or other treatment group)

Inclusion criteria for delayed presentation:
1. Where replantation has been carried out away from a specialist centre and is performed within the guidelines of the International Association of Dental Traumatology (2003)
2. Details can be obtained from the dentist who provided this treatment (e.g. extra alveolar time, extra alveolar medium, dry time, surface contamination, antibiotics, etc.)
3. Meets the same inclusion criteria as listed above for acute presentation
