Brief Summary
This study investigates how the One-Step No-Prep protocol with orthodontic assistance affects dental and jaw function in adults treated for localized tooth wear. It focuses on the predictability and extent of orthodontic tooth movements, the impact on temporomandibular joint position and function, and the quality and long-term stability of the restored bite. Participants will receive minimally invasive bonded restorations combined with simple orthodontic mechanics. The study will evaluate changes in tooth position, bite contacts, facial vertical height, and temporomandibular joint function using digital scans, low-dose 3D imaging, jaw-tracking, and clinical examinations. Patient comfort, function, and satisfaction will also be assessed through questionnaires. The goal is to better understand how this conservative treatment performs over time.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (8)
Three-dimensional orthodontic tooth movements (linear)
Quantification of three-dimensional dental movements induced by the OSNPO protocol, including linear changes assessed on cone-beam computed tomography. Unit of measure : Millimeters (mm).
Baseline and end of OSNPO treatment (approximately 1 month)
Three-dimensional orthodontic tooth movements (angular)
Quantification of three-dimensional dental movements induced by the OSNPO protocol, including angular changes assessed on cone-beam computed tomography. Unit of measure : Degrees (°).
Baseline and end of OSNPO treatment (approximately 1 month)
Time required to re-establish functional occlusion
Assessment of the duration needed to re-establish a functional occlusion following OSNPO, considering the initial posterior open bite and the orthodontic mechanics applied.
Baseline and end of OSNPO treatment (approximately 1 month)
Occlusal contacts
Assessment of the number of occlusal contacts
Baseline; 1 month; annually up to 5 years; and at 10 years.
Occlusal contacts stability
Assessment of the stability of occlusal contacts over time
Baseline; 1 month; annually up to 5 years; and at 10 years.
Changes in vertical facial height
Assessment of the variation in vertical facial height induced by the OSNPO protocol, measured on cone-beam computed tomography. The assessment includes linear measurements between anatomical landmarks.
Baseline and end of OSNPO treatment (approximately 1 month)
Temporomandibular joint position
Assessment of the changes in temporomandibular joint position following the OSNPO protocol. Joint position is evaluated using cone-beam computed tomography, with measurements between anatomical landmarks.
Baseline and end of OSNPO treatment (approximately 1 month)
Temporomandibular joint function
Assessment of the changes in temporomandibular joint function following the OSNPO protocol assessed using the Modjaw jaw-tracking system. Functional evaluation includes three-dimensional mandibular dynamics recorded during different mandibular movements, captured in real time. Unit of measure : Movement amplitudes in millimeters (mm)
Baseline and end of OSNPO treatment (approximately 1 month)
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Clinical performance of PICN partial restorations
1 month; annually up to 5 years; 10 years.
Longevity of PICN partial restorations
1 month; annually up to 5 years; 10 years.
Oral health-related quality of life (OHIP-49)
Baseline; weekly during orthodontic treatment; 1 month; annually up to 5 years; 10 years.
Musculoskeletal symptoms
Baseline; 1 month; annually up to 5 years; 10 years.
Patient satisfaction
1 month
Study Arms (1)
Post-Treatment CBCT, Intraoral Scan, and Modjaw Assessment
EXPERIMENTALAll participants treated with the OSNPO protocol undergo additional diagnostic assessments performed specifically for research purposes after completion of their routine clinical treatment. These research-only procedures include: * a low-dose, large-field CBCT scan to evaluate tooth movements, vertical facial dimensions, and temporomandibular joint position; * a digital intraoral scan to document occlusal contacts and dental morphology; * a Modjaw 3D jaw-tracking recording to assess mandibular function and occlusal dynamics.
Interventions
Acquisition of a low-dose, large-field CBCT scan performed specifically for research purposes after completion of the OSNPO treatment, used to assess tooth movements, vertical facial dimensions, and temporomandibular joint position.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Localized tooth wear that will be treated, or has already been treated, using the OSNPO protocol.
- Age 18 years or older.
- Sufficient cognitive ability to understand the study procedures and complete the required assessments.
- Ability to read and complete the study questionnaires in French.
- Written informed consent provided.
