Impacted Canine Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of Posttreatment Periodontal Status of Palatally Impacted Canines Aligned by Conventional Versus Accelerated Minimally-invasive Corticotomy-assisted Orthodontic Traction Treatment: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Impacted canine causes many problems for patients, such as damage to the adjacent teeth roots, effects on gingival tissues, aesthetic problems, difficulty, and prolonged orthodontic treatment duration. Therefore, solutions to accelerate the movement of impacted canines with the help of surgical procedures to reduce treatment time will be investigated, such as intra-operative alveolar perforations and piezocision. We also aimed to evaluate periodontal changes associated with such accelerating procedures compared with the conventional traction method.
Patients with palatally impacted maxillary canines will be treated using fixed appliances assisted by some surgical procedures. The effects of this treatment approach on the periodontal status will be assessed using periodontal measurements. There are two groups : 1. conventional treatment group 2. minimally-invasive corticotomy-assisted treatment group Patients will be allocated to the two groups randomly. Data will be collected using periodontal variables. ;
