Effectiveness of Two Skeletally Anchored Force Mechanics for Skeletal

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with skeletal Class II malocclusion due to mandibular retrognathism will be recruited and randomly allocated to three equal groups. first group will be treated by pushing orthopedic force mechanics, second group will be treated by pulling orthopedic force mechanics, and third group will be observed for 9 months to detect the natural growth changes. Skeletal changes will be evaluated and the treatment changes will be compared with the natural growth changes. The study hypothesis is that use of direct bimaxillary miniplate anchorage in conjunction with fixed functional appliance (pushing orthopedic force) or closed coil spring (pulling orthopedic force) will induce statistically significant skeletal mandibular growth in comparison to natural mandibular growth changes.

Clinical Trial Description

A randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted to address the aim of the study. Thirty-nine growing patients with skeletal Class II malocclusion due to mandibular retrognathism will be recruited. The sample will be randomly allocated to three equal groups, each including thirteen subjects. Group A will be treated by pushing orthopedic force mechanics using fixed functional appliance (Sabbagh Advanced Repositioning Appliance) anchored to four miniplates (two miniplates inserted in the mandibular symphysis and two infrazygomatic miniplates), and Group B, will be treated by pulling orthopedic force mechanics using Class II springs (CS Class II correction device) anchored to four miniplates (two inserted in the mandibular posterior buccal segment and two inserted in the maxillary anterior segment). In both groups, the appliances will be removed after reaching an edge-to-edge incisor relationship or after 9 months, whichever happens first. A similar third group (Group C) will be observed for 9 months to detect the natural growth changes. Skeletal changes will be evaluated using pretreatment and posttreatment cone beam computed tomography scans (CBCT). The treatment changes will be compared with the natural growth changes observed in group C. Other variables will be also examined including, the dentoalveolar effects, the soft tissue profile, and the patient's acceptance to this treatment modality. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
