View clinical trials related to Malocclusion, Angle Class I.
Filter by:14 Patients with mild to moderate crowding and spacing will be selected according to inclusion criteria. Treatment planning will be done on Maestro® software. An impression will be taken and scanned by an extra-oral scanner. The models will be 3D printed and aligner trays will be fabricated to be delivered on biweekly basis to be worn 16 hours per day for one group and 22 hours for the other group. Superimposition of the achieved clinical model over the predicted model will be done. Linear and angular measurements will be calculated for each tooth.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of lingual aligners in adults. The main question to answer is: - Are lingual aligners effective in achieving desired and predicted tooth movements?
evaluate and compare the efficiency between elastomeric chains and burston T-loop retractors in terms of rate of maxillary canine retraction and canine movements
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
When there is space present between our teeth orthodontically we have the ability to close them through many methods. Using braces as our treatment modality this study will be investigating how efficient a new orthodontic wire is in closing tooth space. This new material is trade-named GUMMETAL and claims to have many benefits to treating patients orthodontically. We will be exploring its efficiency in space closure compared to an industry standard (stainless steel). We predict that the stainless-steel orthodontic wire will be more efficient at space closure than the new GUMMETAL wires.
The purpose of this study is to compare the Full Fixed Preadjusted appliances (regular braces) when to the BRIUS system.
The aim of this study is to compare en masse (EM) and two-step anterior teeth retraction (TSR) evaluated by means of three-dimensional images superimposition. Thirty-two adult patients with bimaxillary protrusion planed for treatment with four first premolar extractions will be enrolled. All patients will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either EM (n=16) group or the TSR (n=16) group. Cone bean computed tomography will be taken before and after anterior retraction. A blind observer will construct separate 3D models for maxillary and mandibular surfaces using the anterior cranial fossa to register models of before and after space closing. Quantitative assessment of posterior anchorage loss and amount of anterior teeth retraction are the main outcomes. The secondary outcomes are the inclination of the molars, canines and incisors.
Patients at the Orthodontic Department of University of Damascus Dental School will be examined and subjects who meet the inclusion criteria will be included. Then, initial diagnostic records (diagnostic gypsum models, internal and external oral photographs, as well as radiographic images) will be studied to ensure that the selection criteria are accurately matched. The aim of this study is to compare two groups of patients with moderate crowding of the lower anterior teeth First group (Experimental): the patients in this group will be treated with orthodontic fixed appliances + surgery to the alveolus of the lower anterior teeth in order to induce remodeling of the bony structures and enhance orthodontic movement. Second group (Control): the patients in this group will be treated using fixed appliances with any acceleration method.
We will treat patients with class I malocclusion who have moderate crowding (4-6 mm) according to Little's irregularity index and asses the efficacy of low level laser therapy in accelerating orthodontic tooth movement . There is two groups : 1. treated with Low level laser therapy (LLLT) 2. treated traditionally without any irradiation Patients will be randomly allocated in any group and all data will be collected through photographs when leveling and alignment completed. Also pain levels will be assessed using numeric rating scale to compare between the two groups and if laser really can relief pain or not .
Patients who have severe crowding that require four premolars extraction will be treated in this study. The efficacy of the clear aligners and vestibular fixed appliances will be assessed. The treatment result of these two different methods will be explored using the Peer Assessment Rating (PAR) in two different times (T0: Before treatment, T1: After treatment) and the American Board of Orthodontics Objective Grading System (ABO-OGS) after treatment (T1). There are two groups: First group (Experimental): the patients in this group will be treated using clear aligners. Second group (Control): the patients in this group will be treated using fixed appliances.
