Filter by:Micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) cause cortical bone injuries and consequently increase the expression of inflammatory mediators, allowing for increased bone and periodontal ligament remodeling associated with orthodontic movement. It remains unclear the effect of orthodontic intrusion combined with MOPs application on teeth with reduced periodontium. The general objective will be to determine the efficacy of MOPs during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in terms of periodontal and orthodontic outcomes in stage IV periodontitis patients, case type 2 with pathological tooth migration (PTM), characterized the presence of at least one flared tooth of the upper-anterior sextant with an intrabony defect (intrabony component <5mm)
Effect of 3 week vs 6 week orthodontic appointment intervals on teeth alignment in patients with moderate to severe dental crowding: a randomized clinical trial. There is still inconclusive evidence about the orthodontics treatment duration and interappointment interval.
The objective of this split mouth trial is to compare mean canine retraction with one Micro-osteo-perforation (MOP) against three MOPs among Class II division I orthodontic patients after one month of intervention.
The hypothesis of this project is that replacing the current 7-day wear protocol with a 3-day wear protocol, while integrating less tooth movement per aligner (reduce the amount of activation per aligner) may produce more consistent and continues orthodontic forces, therefore, increase the predictability, accuracy and outcomes achieved for various types of tooth movements and enhance the rate of tooth movement with the Invisalign system
The large body of evidence supports the chemotherapeutic potential of substances found in Olive Oil (OO), acting on different sides, such as inflammation, oxidative damage, and even epigenetic modulation. The consumption of OO should be suggested in a healthy diet instead of other types of oils. It looks worthy, to determine the effect of local application of Olive Oil in decreasing the friction between brackets and wires during orthodontic treatment.
The study design of this research project involves orthodontic patients registered at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine who are deemed eligible to undergo orthodontic treatment and who have been provided with sufficient information to make informed consent to join the sleep study. These patients will be provided with the Medibyte sleep monitor and instructed on the proper manner in which it should be set up and worn for the one night study period. This process will be carried out twice throughout the course of the study, once before any orthodontic appliance has been cemented and once after the required amount of tooth movement has been attained with the orthodontic appliance still in place. The de-identified data from the Medibyte monitor will be downloaded using the Braebon software and analyzed.
