NCT03308851

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this research is to compare the rate of canine retraction following the osteoperforation and piezocorticision procedures in cases of first premolar extractions. The secondary objectives are to compare the second order movement of the canine (tipping), the amount of root resorption associated with the procedures, the inflammation process by measuring the inflammatory markers in the gingival crevicular fluid, the loss of posterior anchorage by measures on the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) 3-dimensional radiograph and on the casts and to evaluate the pain level and the impact on quality of life following each procedure using the questionnaire of the visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of canine retraction

    The speed at which the canine is moved in the space of the extracted premolar.

    From the time of force application until the distal of the canine touches the mesial of the second premolar. We estimate the time frame to be up to 24 weeks. Measures will be taken at two week intervals.

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Amount of tipping

    The measure is taken when the distal of the canine touches the mesial of the second premolar. We estimate the time frame to be up to 24 weeks

  • Amount of root resorption

    The measure is taken when the distal of the canine touches the mesial of the second premolar. We estimate the time frame to be up to 24 weeks

  • Amount of posterior loss of anchorage

    The measure is taken when the distal of the canine touches the mesial of the second premolar. We estimate the time frame to be up to 24 weeks

  • Concentration of IL-1 in the gingival fluid sample

    Measures are taken immediately before the periodontal procedures, then at 1,3,8 weeks and when the distal of the canine touches the mesial surface of the second premolar which can take up to 24 weeks.

  • Concentration of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) in the gingival fluid sample

    Measures are taken immediately before the periodontal procedures, then at 1,3,8 weeks and when the distal of the canine touches the mesial surface of the second premolar which can take up to 24 weeks.

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Piezocorticision and osteoperforation group

EXPERIMENTAL

All participants in this arm will receive the piezocorticision and osteoperforation procedures on the upper jaw on the left and the right side.

Procedure: PiezocorticisionProcedure: Osteoperforation

Control

NO INTERVENTION

The participants in this arm will receive no treatment, but will have the same monitoring as the experimental group.

Interventions

The piezocorticision is a procedure that aims to accelerate the movement of teeth during an orthodontic treatment. It consists of a local anaesthesia followed by an incision of the buccal mucosa and an incision in the alveolar bone with a piezotome.

Piezocorticision and osteoperforation group

The osteoperforation is a procedure that aims to accelerate the movement of teeth during orthodontic treatment. It consists of a local anaesthesia followed by perforations of the buccal mucosa and alveolar bone using a specific osteoperforation tool.
