Filter by:The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the dentoalveolar and skeletal treatment effects of the AMDA when used for distalization of the maxillary first molars in patients with Class II malocclusion in the permanent dentition.
Effects of modified fixed twin block versus removable twin block on skeletal class 2 growing patients with mandibular deficiency: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Patients with skeletal class II malocclusion who have a retracted lower jaw will be treated in this study. The efficacy of clear Plates in the treatment of Skeletal Class II Malocclusion will be assessed. The skeletal, dental and soft tissues changes resulted by this intervention will be studied and compared with the results of Traditional treatment with fixed appliances.
Forty patients with class II division 1 malocclusion who will require extraction of the upper first premolars as a part of the orthodontic treatment plan will be invited to participate in the study. They will be divided randomly into two groups: the electrical group and the control group. The en-masse retraction technique will be used to retract the upper anterior teeth using mini-implants as an anchor unit to provide the maximum anchorage and Nickle-Titanium closed coil springs that will be stretched from the mini-implants to the crimpable hooks on the base wire and applied 250 g of force per side. A special removable electrical device will be used to provide electrical stimulation during the retraction phase. The levels of pain and discomfort will be self-reported using a questionnaire with visual analog scales.
The objective is to compare the dento-alveolar therapeutic effects of wearing class II inter-arch traction elastics on aligners versus multi-brackets in an adult population. The principal hypothesis is no significant difference in therapeutic effects of using inter-arch elastics on aligners versus multi-brackets.
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of low-level laser in reducing the resorption of the roots of the upper incisors. Participants will be recruited from patients who will attend the Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics at Damascus University. The study sample will consist of 30 patients with a deep bite who will be randomly distributed equally into two groups, 15 patients in each group, average age: 22.37±3.38 years. Mini-implants will apply between the roots of the maxillary central and lateral incisor at both sides with a loading force of 40 g on each end by using a nickel-titanium spring extending from the head of the mini-implants to a wire welded to it with two hooks. A low-level laser (Ga-Al-As) will be used with 808 nm wavelength in continuous mode, 250 milli-Watt power output, 4 Joules/point energy density, 16 s per point in the experimental group. It will be applied on the day of intrusion, then on days 3,7, and 14 of the first month, and then every 15 days starting from the second month until the end of the intrusion. In addition to adjusting the force gauge every 4 weeks until the end of the intrusion stage and reaching normal coverage will be activated every 4 weeks in both groups until normal overbite was reached.
Patient with class ii division 1 malocclusion who have mild increased overjet will be treated in this study. The efficacy of clear aligners in the treatment of Class II division 1 Malocclusion Using Intermaxillary Elastics will be assessed. The skeletal, dental and soft tissues changes resulted by this intervention will be studied and compared with the results of Traditional treatment with fixed appliances. There are two group: 1. a group of patients in which participants will be undergo to the clear aligners with class ii elastics. 2. a group of patients in which participants will be undergo to the traditional fixed appliances with class ii elastics.
60 patients will be treated by extraction of maxillary first premolars by applying mini-screws between the maxillary second premolar and first molar as temporary skeletal anchorage devices (TSADs). They will be divided randomly into three groups in this trial. The prolonged duration of the treatment period can cause many side effects such as white spots, caries, periodontal diseases, and pain and discomfort. So many efforts have been made to reduce the treatment time. Many procedures have been introduced to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement, which can category as surgical or non-surgical. Piezocision is a minimally invasive surgical method for accelerating orthodontic tooth movement and shortening treatment time. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is one of the physical acceleration methods that have contributed to decreasing treatment time.
Sixty patients who need extraction-based treatment of the maxillary first premolars with subsequent retraction of the maxillary anterior teeth will be divided randomly into three groups: piezocision group, piezocision with low-level laser therapy group, and control group. In each group, after the levelling and alignment phase is completed, the rectangular stainless steel archwires (0.019" × 0.025") will be inserted, then after two weeks, the en masse retraction will be started via closed nickel-titanium coil springs applying 250 g of force per side. For anchorage, mini implants will be inserted between the second premolars and the first molar on each side.
Thirty-eight patients requiring extraction of maxillary first premolars will participate in the study. They will be divided randomly into two groups: an en-masse retraction group and a two-step group. In each group, anterior teeth retraction will be initiated after completion of the leveling and alignment phase via closed nickel-titanium coil springs applying 150 g of force per side, Mini-implants will be used as an anchor unit in the en-masse retraction group, and TPA in the two-step's retraction group. The levels of pain, discomfort, and functional impairments will be self-reported using a validated questionnaire with a 4-points Likert scale.
