What this trial studies

This clinical investigation evaluates the performance and safety of Alveogyl, a medical device used as a dressing for patients suffering from post-extraction dry socket. The study includes both adult and child patients diagnosed with dry socket following the extraction of a permanent tooth. It is conducted in India and France, where Alveogyl has been marketed since 2010 and 2014, respectively. Participants must provide informed consent and meet specific inclusion criteria while being excluded if they have certain medical conditions or treatments.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults and children diagnosed with dry socket after the extraction of a permanent tooth.

Not a fit: Patients with spreading infections in the alveolar socket or those who have multiple post-extraction dry sockets may not benefit from this treatment.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly alleviate pain and promote healing in patients suffering from dry socket.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies have shown positive outcomes with similar treatments for dry socket, indicating potential for success in this investigation.
