Malocclusion, Angle Class II Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Clinical Trial on Upper Sequential Distalization With Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs) and Two Aligner Systems
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.

Primary | Predictability of upper molar distalization | Predictability of upper molar distalization will be assessed in mm comparing pre- and post-distalization 3D models. Pre-treatment 3D model (ModT0) will be superimposed with ideal end of distalization model (ClinT1) and real end of distalization models to see how much distalization has been achieved. The predictability will be the difference between the achieved and the expected amount of tooth movement and to quantify distalization measurements are going to be made in various views and teeth. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) to Time 1 (achievement of class I, 10-12 months) | |
Primary | Achievement of molar class I | Achievement of class I after distalization will be assessed with yes (=1) or no (=0). It will be considered class I when the mesiobuccal cusp of the upper first molar occludes with the mesiobuccal groove of the lower first molar when seeing models in occlusion with a discrepancy of 0.5 mm. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) to Time 1 (achievement of class I, 10-12 months) | |
Secondary | Individual tooth movement | Individual tooth movement will be evaluated comparing pre- and post distalization 3D models. In the same superposition procedure explained in the previous section, we are going to study the individual movements of the teeth to see where and which movements have not been achieved. And, the difference between the achieved and the expected amount of tooth movement was calculated. We will quantify the accuracy of each individual movement and we will obtain an index of the accuracy of each movement and the movement will be more precise when the value is closer to 1. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) to Time 1 (achievement of class I, 10-12 months) | |
Secondary | Periodontal mucosa health status - Plaque Index (PI) | Periodontal health status measurements will be made on the right maxillary first molar, premolar and central incisor before treatment and after one, three and six months during treatment in both aligner systems. To assess plaque index (PI) the accumulation of plaque will be visually inspected in the gingival area and will be classified on a score of 0 to 3 of the modified index of Löe, where 0 will be "no plaque on inspection/probing" and 3 will be "presence of a thick layer of plaque". | Time 0 (initial day of treatment), month 3 and month 6 | |
Secondary | Periodontal mucosa health status - Gingival Index (GI) | Periodontal health status measurements will be made on the right maxillary first molar, premolar and central incisor before treatment and after one, three and six months during treatment in both aligner systems. Color and tissue consistency will be evaluated according to the severity of the inflammation of the gingival margin and will be classified on a score of 0 to 3 of the modified index of Löe, were 0 is "Physiologic gingiva" and 3 is "severe inflammation". | Time 0 (initial day of treatment), month 3 and month 6 | |
Secondary | Periodontal mucosa health status - Papillary Bleeding Index (PBI) | Periodontal health status measurements will be made on the right maxillary first molar, premolar and central incisor before treatment and after one, three and six months during treatment in both aligner systems. The PBI will be assessed by inserting a periodontal probe into the gingival sulcus of those three teeth and waiting 20 seconds after probing and will be classified on a score of 0 to 3 of the modified index of Löe, were 0 is "no bleeding" and 3 is "profuse bleeding". | Time 0 (initial day of treatment), month 3 and month 6 | |
Secondary | Peri-implant mucosa inflammation | Peri-implant mucosa health status will be also assessed as a reaction of pressure around the TAD with a periodontal probe and registering bleeding with Absence=0 or Presence=1. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment), month 3 and month 6 | |
Secondary | TADs stability | Stability will be evaluated in each appointment with cotton tweezers and there will be two groups: mobile (yes=1) and not mobile (no=1). TAD failure will be considered when the implant loosened before or during completion of its use, when it presents mobility or pain on percussion. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment), month 3 and month 6 | |
Secondary | Quantification of the modulus of elasticity | Modulus of elasticity measures resistance to being deformed elastically when a stress is applied to it. This will be evaluated on samples cut out from as-received aligners and on aligners after two weeks of use with instrumented indentation testing using a universal testing machine. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and week 2 | |
Secondary | Quantification of changes in force after 75 desinsertion cycles | The desinsertion force is the force that it is necessary to remove the aligners from de teeth (N). This will be evaluated in vitro in the first passive aligner after being subjected to 75 cycles of insertion/desinsertion of its stereolithographic using a universal testing machine. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and week 2 | |
Secondary | Quantification of changes in desinsertion time after 75 desinsertion cycles | The desinsertion time is the time that it is necessary to remove the aligners from de teeth (s). This will be evaluated in vitro in the first passive aligner after being subjected to 75 cycles of insertion/desinsertion of its stereolithographic using a universal testing machine. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and week 2 | |
Secondary | Quantification of changes in deformation after 75 desinsertion cycles | The deformation of the aligner is the amount of deformation that an aligner undergoes when it is removed (mm). This will be evaluated in vitro in the first passive aligner after being subjected to 75 cycles of insertion/desinsertion of its stereolithographic using a universal testing machine. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and week 2 | |
Secondary | Quantification of the aligner fit on the attachments | The aligner fit is the distance between the internal surface of the aligner and the teeth or attachments. This is use to study the gap between the aligners and the teeth. This will be evaluated in vitro in the passives aligners as-received and after being subjected to 75 cycles of insertion/desinsertion of its stereolithographic using a universal testing machine. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and week 2 | |
Secondary | Orthodontically induced external apical root resorption (OIEARR) | OIEARR will be measured on upper posterior teeth root lengths before and after distalization with the use of panoramic radiographs. They were divided into two groups (presence>2mm/absence<2mm). | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and month 6 | |
Secondary | Quantification of pain level | Pain level will be assessed using a 0-10 numerical pain rating scale where 0 is "no pain" and 10 is "worst possible pain". They will also be asked some questions regarding pain evaluation and finally, their analgesic consumption, type and frequency. They have to be completed each day during the third week, in week 7 and 11. | Week 3, week 7 and week 11. | |
Secondary | Quantification of quality of life (OHIP-14sp) | Quality of life will be evaluated with the Spanish version of the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14sp). It is a 14 item questionnaire in which participants have to respond a 5-point Likert scale coded for: never (0), hardly ever (1), occasionally (2), fairly often (3) and very often (4). The overall OHIP-14sp outcome will be obtained by summing the items and so the score ranges from 0 to 56 and the higher the score the higher the lever of oral quality of life and vice versa. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and month 1 | |
Secondary | Quantification of patient satisfaction (DSQ) | Dental Satisfaction Questionnaire (DSQ) will be used to study patient satisfaction. It has 19 items with a Likert scale from 1 to 5, were 1 is "agree completely", 2 "agree", 3 "undecided", 4 "disagree" and 5 "disagree completely". Agree completely responses were rated with 5 points and disagree completely with 1. The overall outcome will be obtained by summing the items and so the score ranges from 19 to 95, having into account that items 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 11, 13 and 17 are reverse scored. The higher the score the higher the level of patient satisfaction and vice versa. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) and month 1 | |
Secondary | Quantification of the treatment and chair time. | Distalization treatment time will be measured in months and days since the first aligner is delivered to the patient until the last day of distalization of the first premolar. It should be taken into consideration the mid-course corrections if necessary.
Chair time of each scheduled or non-scheduled appointment is the total time that the patient spends in the dental chair regardless of the interaction with the doctor or assistant. Treatment time in minutes will be estimated with a stopwatch and rounded up to the nearest 30 seconds. |
Time 0 (initial day of treatment) to Time 1 (achievement of class I, 10-12 months) | |
Secondary | Quantification of the number of appointments. | Total number of appointments, emergency visits related to the appliances and cancellations will be also noted. Regarding the emergency visits the reason will be noted, attachment debonding, damage or loss of the aligners or other reasons related with the TADs. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) to Time 1 (achievement of class I, 10-12 months) | |
Secondary | Quantification of the direct and indirect costs. | Direct costs (Euros) in this study included material costs and treatment time needed. Indirect costs (Euros) will be defined as loss of income, assuming that the patients will be absent from work during the orthodontic appointment. | Time 0 (initial day of treatment) to Time 1 (achievement of class I, 10-12 months) |
