Filter by:54 patients who need extraction-based treatment of the maxillary first premolars with subsequent retraction of the maxillary canines 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. There are three groups: The first group (control group): the canine retraction in this group will be performed in conventional method. The second group (Experimental group): the canine retraction in this group will be performed in association with piezocision. The third group (Experimental group): the canine retraction in this group will be performed in association with low-level laser therapy.
Comparing the efficacy and performance of two conventionally anchored distalizers after modifying them to be skeletally anchored. En masse distalization is attempted by consolidating the posterior maxillary segment "first premolar to second molar" as one unit.
Sixty patients need extraction-based treatment of the maxillary first premolars with subsequent retraction of the maxillary canines will be divided randomly into three groups: piezocision group, low-level laser therapy group, and control group. In each group, the canine retraction will be started after completion of the leveling and alignment phase via closed nickel-titanium coil springs applying 150 g of force per side. For anchorage, a soldered trans-palatal arch will be used. Pre- and post distalization dental casts will be assessed to study the rate of canine retraction, as well as, canine rotation and anchorage loss over a follow-up period until a class I canine relationship is achieved.
There are situations where orthodontic treatment cannot provide long-term benefits. The proposed orthotropic theory proposes that environmental factors cause malocclusion and genes decide its pattern. The primary aim of this project is to increase the success, aesthetics and permanence of the treatment result by providing the best facial change of the pediatric patients in the MP3cap period, and that myofunctional exercises can be used in addition to orthodontic treatments during the treatment process of the patients.
This clinical study will be directed to compare the effect of presence or absence of third molar on distalization of the upper posterior segment by using carriere motion appliance
To compare the effect of two control intervals (once every 4th week or once every 6th week) on the wear time of a Twin Block removable appliance.
The study is aiming to evaluate the efficacy of Powerscope appliance in treatment of skeletal Class 2 malocclusion by three-dimensional image. Powerscope appliance is a hybrid fixed functional appliance used for treatment of Class II malocclusion with a retruded mandible.
Various malocclusions require the extraction of the first premolars and retraction of the canines with the need for maximum anchorage. If the canines are pulled into the extraction space using the molar teeth for support, unwanted tooth movement occurs. This study aims to evaluate the effect of temporary anchorage devices and power arms, which are auxiliary orthodontic appliances in reducing undesirable tooth movements.
In this study the investigators are going to compare the predictability of the backward movement of upper first molars in patients with the upper dentition more advanced than the lower dentition. The investigators are going to study if the movements that they predict are achieved and in which proportion and compare it between four different aligner systems. The investigators hypothesis is that there are no differences in the predictability of this movement between the four aligner systems.
The aim of this clinical prospective study will be directed to evaluate two approaches of micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) during orthodontic canine retraction.
