Conditions
Molar, Third

Device: 3TBA
Registration Number
NCT05374993
Lead Sponsor
TriAgenics Inc
Brief Summary

This single-arm prospective study will enroll a minimum of 7 and a maximum 10 subjects between the ages of 7 and 13 years of age with radiographic evidence of mandibular 3rd molar tooth bud development without enamel formation. Each subject will undergo a 3TBA procedure for each qualifying mandibular 3rd molar tooth buds. Each subject will receive treatment for qualifying mandibular tooth buds during the same session. Subjects will be followed for a minimum of 12 weeks post treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Tooth Structure Development Assessment12 weeks

Efficacy assessment will be performed based on periapical X-rays from Follow-up Visit 3 (12-week post treatment). Effectiveness Assessment will consist of evaluation of Tooth Structure Development and Bony Crypt In Growth using the following scale.

Tooth Structure Development Assessment Scale for 3rd Molar:

"0" = No radiographic evidence.

"1" = Minimal or trace level of detectable radiographic evidence.

"2" = Moderate or intermediate level of detectable radiographic evidence of mineralized tooth structure formation with crown formation to be less than 50% complete.

"3" = Advanced level of detectable radiographic evidence of mineralized tooth structure formation with enamel formation estimated to be 50% or more complete.

Success is defined as a score of "0" or "1" on Tooth Structure Development scale at Follow-up Visit 3 (12-week post treatment). Each treated tooth bud is evaluated individually.

Bony Crypt Growth Assessment12 weeks

Efficacy assessment will be performed based on periapical X-rays from Follow-up Visit 3 (12-week post treatment). Effectiveness Assessment will consist of evaluation of Bony Crypt In Growth using the following scales.

Tooth Structure Development Assessment Scale for 3rd Molar:

"0" = No radiographic evidence.

"1" = Minimal or trace level of detectable radiographic evidence of mineralized tooth structure formation.

"2" = Moderate or intermediate level of detectable radiographic evidence of mineralized tooth structure formation with crown formation to be less than 50% complete.

"3" = Advanced level of detectable radiographic evidence of mineralized tooth structure formation with enamel formation estimated to be 50% or more complete.

N/I = Not Interpretable. N/A = Not Applicable.

Success is defined as a score of "0" or "1" on Bony Crypt Growth Assessment scales at Follow-up Visit 3 (12-week post treatment). Each treated tooth bud is evaluated individually.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]12 weeks

* Proximal second molars continue to erupt normally

* Proximal second molars have no radiographic evidence of crown alteration

* Surgical site is completely healed over on visual exam

* Radiographic assessment of the surgical site is WNL expected or post op healing

* No adverse events related to the 3TBA procedure

* No reported neurological changes to tongue or lip
