Clinical Trial Summary

There's a scarcity in literature concerning en-masse retraction and its effect on the rate of tooth movement. The purpose of this study is to determine, In orthodontic patients with maxillary protrusion, which form of mechanics in en-masse retraction offers a faster rate of retraction; Friction or Frictionless Mechanics.


Clinical Trial Description

The en-masse technique can be done in one of two ways: through friction or frictionless mechanics. Both are viable options, but, ideally, we want to retract and complete the orthodontic treatment as quickly as possible, in order to decrease the negative effects that may occur during treatment. Which of these mechanics results in a decreased treatment time is still up for debate. ;
