NCT05963750
Fear of the dentist is a very common phenomenon which delays consultations and brings negative consequences on oral and general health. Virtual reality (VR) reduces children's pain and anxiety during dental care or oral surgery. The aim of this prospective, randomized and controlled study is to show the effectiveness of virtual reality to reduce anxiety in a sample of adults during tooth avulsions under local anesthesia. There is a group with virtual reality and a control group without virtual reality. Patients complet the State Trait Anxiety Inventory - State - (STAI-YA) questionnaire and the visual analog anxiety scale (VAS) just before and just after the surgery by transcribing the anxiety they feel during it. The main judgement criterion is the evolution of the STAI-YA score before vs during the surgery. Secondary criteria are the relevance of the chosen metric by comparing it to the VAS, defining the factors influencing the evolution of the anxiety score, studying the side effects of VR and the wish to repeat the experience.

This study aims to find the best way to use your own healthy wisdom tooth to replace the bad tooth. After transplantation, how to manage the "tooth nerve" (dental pulp) inside the tooth is a key question. Currently, doctors have three different management strategies, but it is not clear which one is most beneficial for long-term success. This study will compare these three strategies: Performing standard root canal treatment (removing the tooth nerve) a few weeks after transplantation. Performing a special procedure to treat and fill the root tip during the transplant surgery, followed by root canal treatment later. Simply trimming the root tip during the transplant surgery, hoping to preserve the vitality of the tooth nerve and thereby avoid subsequent root canal treatment. If you agree to participate, you will be randomly assigned to one of these groups to receive treatment. Afterwards, we will need to schedule regular check-ups for you over a period of 5 years (including X-rays and examinations) to monitor the healing of the transplanted tooth, check for any problems, and assess the status of the tooth nerve. Your participation will help us identify the most effective and long-lasting treatment method, thereby benefiting future patients in similar situations.
NCT05214664
The success rates reported in the literature for the various truncal anesthesia techniques are extremely variable and have shown a lack of reproducibility of the techniques. The use of the EZ-BLOCK® guidance system would increase this success rate in a significant and reproducible way, as it is based on individualized anatomical foundations and therefore adapted to inter-patient variability. In order to determine its effectiveness in clinical situations encountered in current practice, a comparative clinical study of the 2 techniques (freehand reference technique and using the EZ-BLOCK® system) is necessary.
