What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This trial tests whether extra follow-up—via phone calls, digital messages, or both—helps people recover better after a tooth extraction. Adults having a tooth pulled will get standard instructions, and some will also receive structured phone or digital check-ins during the first week. Researchers will measure how well patients follow post-op advice, pain levels, complications like dry socket, and quality of life to see which communication method works best.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Telephonic and digital postoperative follow-up communication strategies (structured phone calls, digital messaging, or both)
What this could lead to
If effective, this could identify the best way to support patients after tooth extraction, reducing complications like dry socket and improving recovery.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and early, and results may not apply to all dental settings. The interventions only reinforce standard care, so the added benefit may be modest.
