This experimental study will evaluate the effect of an esthetic Twin-block appliance on the correction of class II malocclusion compared with the traditional Twin-block appliance. The study sample will consist of 50 patients with class II malocclusion. The sample will be allocated randomly into two groups: the control group and the experimental group. The traditional Twin-block appliance will be applied for the control group patients, while the esthetic Twin-block appliance will be applied for the experimental group patients. The dentoskeletal, soft tissue changes and esthetic and functional efficacy occurring after functional treatment will be assessed using cephalometric radiographs and profile photographs, pre and post-treatment, and a questionnaire. Changes for each group will be evaluated individually, and the two groups will be compared.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Dentoskeletal mandible changes as measured by tomographic | changes of the mandible before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using lateral cephalometric radiographs | Assessment will be done before treatment (T0) and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1). | |
Primary | Lower incisor angle changes | Lower incisor angle changes before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using lateral cephalometric radiographs. | Changes will be evaluated before treatment and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1) | |
Primary | ANB angle changes | ANB angle changes before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using lateral cephalometric radiographs. | Changes will be evaluated before treatment and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1) | |
Secondary | Dentoskeletal maxilla changes as measured by tomographic superimposition of the cranial base | changes of the maxilla before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using lateral cephalometric radiographs. | Assessment will be done before treatment (T0) and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1) | |
Secondary | SNA angle changes | SNA angle changes before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using lateral cephalometric radiographs. | Assessment will be done before treatment (T0) and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1) | |
Secondary | SNB angle changes | SNB angle changes before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using lateral cephalometric radiographs. | Assessment will be done before treatment (T0) and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1). | |
Secondary | Soft tissue changes | Soft tissue changes before and after treatment will be assessed and compared with those of the control group (Facial convexity angle, Nasolabial angle, Z-Merrifield angle, …etc) using profile photography. | Assessment will be done before treatment (T0) and after obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months (T1) | |
Secondary | The duration of functional treatment | The duration of the functional treatment will be measured and compared between groups. | After obtaining 0-1.5 mm overjet and the occlusion settled into a class I or superclass I molar relationship which will be approximately obtained after 8 months | |
Secondary | Levels of pain | The level of pain will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using a questionnaire with a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The VAS is a 10-cm horizontal line with two focal points at its beginning and end (0: there is no pain - 10: the worst pain). | A questionnaire will be given to the patients five times during treatment; after 1 week, after 1 week, after 6 weeks, after 3 months and at the end of the application of the appliance. | |
Secondary | Levels of discomfort | The level of discomfort will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using a questionnaire with a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The VAS is a 10-cm horizontal line with two focal points at its beginning and end (0: there is no discomfort - 10: the worst discomfort). | A questionnaire will be given to the patients four times during treatment; after 1day, after 1 week, after 6 weeks, after 3 months and at the end of the application of the appliance. | |
Secondary | Levels of acceptance | The level of acceptance will be assessed and compared with those of the control group using a questionnaire with a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The VAS is a 10-cm horizontal line with two focal points at its beginning and end (0: no acceptance - 10: the best acceptance). | A questionnaire will be given to the patients four times during treatment; after 1day, after 1 week, after 6 weeks, after 3 months and at the end of the application of the appliance. | |
Secondary | Number of broken appliances | The number of broken will be counted and compared with those of the control group . | During the treatment time which will take approximately 8 months. |
