NCT03363620

Brief Summary

The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to compare the transverse development of the arches and the incisor inclination comparing two different ligating systems (SL vs CL) with the same arch form protocol (Damon arch form) and the same disarticulation protocols after the alignment and leveling period of non-extraction patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • transverse development of the arches

    The maxillary and mandibular widths were measured between the cusp tips of the canines, the buccal cusp tips of the first and second premolars and the mesio-buccal cusp tips of the first molars . They were measured using a digital caliper (Starrett 799A-6/150 Digital Caliper, Athol, Massachusetts, USA) positioned parallel to the occlusal plane.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • incisor inclination

    2 years

Study Arms (2)

self ligation brackets damon ormco®

EXPERIMENTAL

the self ligation bracket (damon system) in the orthodontic treatment, was used in the experimental group with the recommended protocol damon arches sequence.

Device: Orthodontic Brackets

conventional brackets orthos ormco®

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

the conventional bracket (orthos system) in the orthodontic treatment, was used in the active comparator group with the recommended protocol damon arches sequence as used in the experimental group.

Device: Orthodontic Brackets

Interventions

arch form development in the orthodontic treatment with 2 different kind of ligation brackets with the same arches protocol in the leveling and alignment phase

Also known as: self ligation brackets
self ligation brackets damon ormco®
