Evaluation of Leveling and Alignment of Maxillary Anterior Teeth Assisted With MOPs :A Comparative Clinical Study

NCT05605652 | Unknown

• 1 other identifier: 660/301
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 28
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The aim of the study will be directed to evaluate the effect of micro-osteoperforation on orthodontic tooth movement during leveling and alignment of the maxillary anterior teeth.

Conditions

Crowding of Anterior Maxillary Teeth

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• • Alignment progress was evaluated on 3D digital model taken before inserting the 1st archwire and then at all subsequent visits using (LII).

  • Alignment progress was evaluated on 3D digital model taken before inserting the 1st archwire and then at all subsequent visits using (LII).

  2months-6months

• • Overall time needed to complete leveling and alignment of maxillary anterior segment

  • Overall time needed to complete leveling and alignment of maxillary anterior segment was calculated by the number of days between day of inserting the 1st archwire and at the end of the leveling and alignment stage.

  2months -6months

• • Alignment improvement percentage

  • Alignment improvement percentage was calculated by dividing the amount of change in the LII value at a specific time point (calculated by subtracting the LII value at T1, T2, or T3 from the LII value at T0) by LII value at T0.

  2months -6months

Study Arms (2)

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

leveling and alignment will be commenced without micro- osteoperforations

Experimental group

EXPERIMENTAL

Flapless micro-osteoperforations will be performed interproximally on the alveolar bone equidistant between upper right canine to upper left canine at every interdental alveolar bone except at the midline alveolar bone to prevent trauma to the soft tissue frenum before placing the initial leveling archwire.

Procedure: microosteoperforations

Interventions

microosteoperforations PROCEDURE

Flapless micro-osteoperforations will be performed interproximally on the alveolar bone equidistant between upper right canine to upper left canine at every interdental alveolar bone except at the midline alveolar bone to prevent trauma to the soft tissue frenum before placing the initial leveling archwire.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 13 Years - 19 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

• \. Class 1 skeletal pattern with normal facial proportions. 2. Patients with age range between 13 -19 years. 3. Moderate crowding of maxillary anterior region assessed by Little Irregularity Index (LII) that require treatment with fixed appliance using non extraction approach.
• \. All permanent teeth erupted (excluding 3rd molars). 5. No previous orthodontic treatment. 6. Good oral hygiene with no previous periodontal surgery.

You may not qualify if:

• \. Transverse and/or vertical skeletal dysplasia or craniofacial malformation. 2. Retained primary or missing permanent teeth in the maxillary anterior area. 3. Poor oral hygiene 4. Present or history of periodontal diseases. 5. Physical or mental disability. 6. Systemic diseases or regular use of medications that could interfere with orthodontic tooth movement.
