to compare Palatal and buccal protraction using plates assisted with facemask in growing class III patients
In orthodontics, the teeth tend to move to the extraction space. This tooth movement becomes of larger importance when there is a crowding. During the COVID lockdown period, It was noted that some cases have a significant improvement and almost all the crowding was relieved without appliance activation.
This study aims to determine and compare the precise skeletal dental and soft tissue effect of Mandibular advancement aligners and Herbst Appliance.
This study aims to evaluate the clinical performance of the zirconia laminate veneer, a minimally invasive prosthetic restoration
Correcting the skeletal class II using functional appliances, whether removable or fixed, always leads to skeletal and alveolar effects. However, some of these effects are unfavorable, the most significant being the loss of support in the lower dental arch. This loss of support leads to an uncontrolled labial inclination of the lower incisors and mesial movement of the lower; these dentoalveolar effects impact the degree of skeletal correction that can be achieved. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects following the use of a mini-implant-supported Twin-Block appliance compared to the conventional Twin-Block.
The aim of the study is to compare a customized facemask for the treatment of Class III malocclusion in the prepubertal growing patient (patients between the ages of 5 and 12 years) versus a standard commercial facemask. Specifically, preference, pain, difficulty in sleeping, time of use, and possible complications for the two types of facemasks will be analyzed. This is a single-center, national, controlled, superiority, randomized, crossover, open-label study. Each patient will be treated with both the customized facemask and the standard commercial facemask. Each patient will wear one type of facemask for 2 months and the other type of facemask for the next 2 months. After 2 weeks and at the end of therapy with each of the facemask types, the patient, with the possible help of the parents, will have to answer a questionnaire about pain and difficulty sleeping and report any complications. In addition, after completing both phases (fourth month), the patient should indicate a preference for one of the two types of mask with which to complete therapy for an additional 6 months.
Malocclusion is a kind of craniomaxillofacial complex deformity caused by heredity, environment, bad habits, trauma, inflammation, tumor and aging. Notably, the last comprehensive national prevalence data on malocclusion in China, which encompassed a significant sample size, dates back over two decades. Given the evolving nature of these epidemiological metrics, such as prevalence rates, it is imperative to update our understanding. Consequently, there is an urgent need for China to undertake a unified, standardized epidemiological survey of malocclusion with a substantial sample size to ensure accurate and timely data collection.
Research Question While the reduction in treatment times and the patient satisfaction after periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) are well sustained in the scientific literature, there is still controversy regarding if grafting leads to i) change of the periodontal phenotype and ii) greater stability of post-orthodontic treatment outcomes, highlighting the need of controlled clinical trials. Aims of the Project The aim of this randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to compare piezocision-assisted orthodontics, concomitant to soft tissue grafting (volume-stable collagen matrix), with piezocision-assisted orthodontics, concomitant to bone grafting with a xenograft and a native collagen membrane, in orthodontic non-growing patients. The primary aim will be to determine the impact of this surgical protocol on the hard and soft tissue changes occurring on the buccal aspect of the dentition. Secondary objectives will include the assessment of the comparative impact on treatment duration, rate of tooth movements, presence of root resorption, periodontal parameters, bone level changes and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) between the two groups.
The goal of this clinical trial is to to evaluate and compare the skeletal and dental changes of bone supported Fast Back and bone supported modified Leaf Spring Self-Activated Expander in bilateral distalization of maxillary molars using CBCT in Egyptian people. The main question it aims to answer are: • If bone supported Fast Back and bone supported modified Leaf Spring Self-Activated Expander will be effective in bilateral distalization of maxillary molars The patients will be selected according to the following criteria: 1. Patient with full permanent dentition. 2. Good oral hygiene. 3. None of the patients had received any orthodontic treatment. 4. Class II molar relationship. 5. Minimal or no crowding in the mandibular arch. 6. Non-extraction treatment plan with molar distalization. 7. Low angle cases. 8. No medical problems or active periodontal disease. Researchers will compare between bone supported Fast Back appliance and bone supported modified Leaf Spring Self-Activated and see if they will be effective in maxillary molars distalization.
