Plain English summary of protocol

Background and study aims
This study compares oral adhesive bandages with the classic compression method to evaluate this wound dressing material in improving postoperative comfort, wound healing and hemostasis (stopping bleeding) in tooth extraction.

Who can participate?
Adult patients requiring surgical removal of one single tooth

What does the study involve?
In this study, subjects are randomly assigned to one of two groups (a randomized controlled clinical trial): an experimental group receiving the intervention that is being tested, the oral adhesive bandages used as wound dressing, and the other (the comparison group or control) receiving an alternative (conventional) treatment. In the control group, patients bite cotton balls and gauze, which is the usual method of wound dressing. At postoperative 1 hour, 24 hours and 7 days, hemorrhage (bleeding), comfort and healing levels are evaluated. The adhesion time of oral adhesive bandages is also recorded. For every participant, the study lasts for one week.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
Participants will benefit from discounts on surgery costs. There are risks of allergy towards oral adhesive bandages.

Where is the study run from?
Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University (China)

When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
January 2022 to December 2023

Who is funding the study?
The Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University (China)

Who is the main contact?
Dr. Zhou Xiaocheng, zhouxiaocheng@whu.edu.cn (China)

Study objectivesThe oral adhesive bandages are better than the conventional methods in hemostatic, healing and comforting effects on extraction wound management.
Ethics approval(s)

Approved 25/03/2022, The Medical Ethics Committee in the Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan university (237 Luoyu Road, Hongshan district, Wuhan, 430079, China; +86 027-87686250; wdkqllwyh@163.com), ref: 2022-C12

Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedWound management in tooth extraction
InterventionPatients in the control group bite cotton balls and gauze, while patients in the study group use oral adhesive bandages for extraction socket protection. Bleeding, comforting and healing levels of all patients are measured. The lottery method will be used for randomization.

Participant's journey and follow-up:
Screen, blood test, enrol and randomize, written informed consent, surgery, assess at postoperative 1 hour, assess at postoperative 24 hours, follow up and assess at postoperative 7 days.

A single dentist performed extraction surgeries for all participants, another dentist assessed all participants without knowing their group. The hemostatic measures were performed individually after every extraction surgery. The hemostatic measures were performed upon extraction sockets.
Intervention typeDevice
Pharmaceutical study type(s)Not Applicable
PhaseNot Applicable
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Oral adhesive bandages
Primary outcome measure1. Bleeding measured using a visual examination at 1 and 24 hours postoperative
2. Comfort level measured using a comfort rating scale 1-hour postoperative
3. Healing measured using a visual examination on postoperative day 7
4. Adhesion time of the oral adhesive bandages measured using a visual examination when oral adhesive bandages fall off
Secondary outcome measures1. Complications measured using patient self-reporting records within 7 days after surgery
2. The duration of extraction surgeries measured using recorded timekeeping from the beginning of surgery to the tooth is extracted
