Clinical Trial Summary

Investigate the levels of type I Collagen fragments ICTP and CTX in GCF and saliva during initial leveling and alignment of the teeth in a sample of adolescents undergoing orthodontic treatment.


Clinical Trial Description

Type I Collagen fragments ICTP (cross-linked carboxyterminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen) and CTX (C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen) are specific bone resorption biomarkers released in the circulation after osteoclastic bone resorption and collagen degradation and were found to be released in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and saliva during metabolic bone diseases and active periodontitis. So the aim of the study is to investigate the levels of ICTP and CTX in GCF and saliva during initial leveling and alignment of the teeth in a sample of adolescents undergoing orthodontic treatment. ;
