The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) on the dental and periodontal health of patients undergoing fixed-appliance orthodontic treatment, including orthodontically induced root resorption, orthodontic pain, space closing rate, and dental microbiome profile in dental plaques.
The goal of this study is to compare the bracket transfer accuracy of two frequently used 3D printed indirect bonding trays. This is an interventional study. Participants have 3-6mm crowding without tooth loss and deformity. It is planned to be 2 groups in the study. Each group will include 15 participants. Indirect bonding will be applied with shell and bar designs that are frequently used. Brackets will be bonded from second premolar to other side's second premolar of upper and lower jaw. Bracket transfer accuracy of two different trays will be compared with planned position and each other.
this clinical trial aims to prove that multiple injections will produce a steady rate of acceleration of orthodontic tooth movement.
This PMCF study evaluates the safety and performance of OrthoPulse photobiomodulation to accelerate tooth movement during alignment with fixed appliances.
Micro osteoperforation is an easy, safe and effective method of accelerating orthodontic tooth movement by 2-3 times.it has been reported to increased the osteoblastic activity and some acceleration of the rate of canine retraction,reducing the treatment duration and associated side effects. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of MOPs on the rate of alignment of mandibular anterior teeth.
Malocclusions in adolescents may affect oral health related quality of life. The study aims at; 1. Evaluating two instruments measuring oral health related quality of life; "Child Perceptions Questionnaire 11-14" (CPQ 11-14) short form and "Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire" (PIDAQ). 2. Comparing differences in oral health related quality of life in; 1. adolescents with different types of malocclusion and without malocclusions 2. individuals of different genders and socioeconomic status 3. Longitudinally evaluating differences in oral health related quality of life; 1. before, during and after orthodontic treatment 2. in untreated individuals (without malocclusion) over time
Orthodontic treatment extends over a longer period of time. lt takes months or rather years and it is no short-term treatment. The current literature does not answer the question of patients' expectations on aligner treatment and patients' experiences during aligner therapy sufficiently. Therefore, it is clinically and ethically highly relevant to know answers to these questions. This knowledge can highly improve the orthodontic consultation and therapy as well as the patients' comfort and wellbeing during the therapy. The proposed questionnaire-based interview survey is anticipated as a two-vear study. In the first year study patients' expectations and preferences before the aligner treatment with Invisalign® aligners will be evaluated as well as preliminary changes in quality of life during the first stages of the Invisalign® aligner treatment. In the second year study it is planned to continue with the time equivalent questionnaires of the first year study and to investigate the patients' expectations, patients' experiences and levels of quality of life during and after aligner treatment. Therefore, it is planned to enroll 55 patients in this multicentre questionnaire-based interview survey. Two different questionnaires will be handed out to the patients. The first questionnaire, the aligner questionnaire, collects information from three different time points regarding the patients' expectations, preferences, experiences and views on second opinion concerning the aligner treatment. The results of those three time points, i.e. first (Ta0 before treatment begin), second (Ta6Mo, after 6 months of treatment) and third (Ta final, after finishing the treatment) will be statistically described and compared over time. We expect most questionnaires of the second (during aligner treatment) and third time points (after finishing of treatment) to be evaluated by the end of the second year (second-year study), as the average treatment duration is about two years. The aim of the second questionnaire (OHlP 14) is to find out the changes in quality of life and is scheduled be started already in the firsfyear study. This questionnaire will be handed out to the patients before the treatment begins (Tq0), at the first check-up after the beginning of the treatment (TqCo1) and semi-annually afterwards (Tq6Mo' Tq12Mo, Tq18Mo, Tq24Mo, Tq30Mo) and finally at the end of the treatment (Tq final).
This study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of digital models obtained via 10 digitization techniques to the reference standard of orthodontic plaster model through dental measurements
