Clinical Trial Summary

This study is to evaluate the effect of vitamin D on the rate of tooth movement by measuring and comparing the extraction space closure during retraction in experimental (vitamin D supplemented) and control groups with a sample size of 24 and having serum vitamin D level (30-40 ng/ml). All subjects undergo orthodontic levelling and alignment after premolar extractions followed by vitamin D supplementation in the experimental group. The rate of canine retraction will be measured in both the groups and CBCT taken in the interval of 6 months before and after intervention to measure root changes

Description:

Aims and Objectives: To evaluate the effect of vitamin D on the rate of tooth movement by measuring and comparing the extraction space closure during retraction in experimental (vitamin D supplemented) and control groups. Secondary objective: To compare root resorption in experimental and control group. Setting: Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics, PGIDS, Rohtak.

Study Design: Prospective, double blind, randomized clinical study Time frame: Duration of study is one year Population/participant: Inclusion criteria:- Patients with age between 19-25 years with malocclusion requiring bilateral extraction of maxillary 1st premolars in good general health and healthy periodontium.

Exclusion Criteria:- Presence of any systemic/bone/metabolic/hormonal diseases, long-term drug history, pregnant or lactating women, smoking habit, root resorption orany chronic disorders Sample size: A sample size of 10 per group for the present study was calculated to detect a clinical difference of 0.89 with a pooled standard deviation of 0.53 (effect size 1.67) at 95% power and alpha significance level at 0.05.

To compensate for 20% dropouts the final sample size was calculated to be 11 per group (i.e) total sample size will be 24.

Method of study: Patients who fulfill the selection criteria will be selected for the study. After taking the pretreatment records and recording the pretreatment vitamin D levels the patients will be sent for extraction of 1st premolars. Treatment will be initiated by bonding 0.022"slot MBT straight wire appliance. Retraction will be done on 0.019"x 0.025" SS wires using closed coil NiTi springs. Patients of study group will be instructed to take adequate dose of vitamin D3 during phase of space closure. Serum vitamin D levels will be checked at 4th,8th, 12th and 16th weeks and rate of canine retraction will be measured at these time intervals. Root resorption will be measured from CBCT at the end of 6 months Outcome Measures: The outcome variables will be the rate of retraction measured in millimeters. Changes in root length will be measured and compared between the two groups Statistical Analysis: Data will be checked for normality. If it is in normal distribution, intra group comparison will be done by student's t-test between two time points and inter group comparison will be done by using Independent T test between two groups. If it is in non-normal distribution, intra group comparison will be done by Wilcoxon signed rank test and inter group comparison will be done by Mann-Whitney U test.
