About this study

Official title: Randomized, Blinded, Controlled Clinical Trial of Surgically Facilitated Orthodontic Treatment in the Mandibular Anterior Region

The purpose of this investigation is intended to evaluate the efficacy of surgically facilitated orthodontic treatment (SFO) in terms of treatment time, incidence of root shortening, and occurrence of mucogingival side effects compared to conventional orthodontic therapy in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment to correct crowding and/or retroclination of their mandibular anterior dentition.

Read the detailed description

The null-hypothesis for this research project is that there will be no difference in the rate of orthodontic movement among patients requiring proclination or alignment of their mandibular anterior teeth with SFO (TEST group) as compared to conventional orthodontic treatment (CONTROL group). A null-hypothesis is that there will be no difference between both treatment groups in the occurrence of dental (root shortening) or periodontal (mucogingival defects, alveolar bone resorption) complications associated with orthodontic treatment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Rate of orthodontic tooth movement

    Difference between the rate of orthodontic tooth movement between the two groups as measured by linear measurements on digitized study casts obtained at 4-week intervals.

    Measured: 6 months(plus or minus 1 week)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of mucogingival defects

    Incidence of mucogingival defects as clinically measured by gingival recession (GR), clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), width of keratinized tissue (WKT) and biotype), by a calibrated examiner

    Measured: 6 months(plus or minus 2weeks) after initiation of treatment

  2. Incidence and magnitude of apical root resorption

    Incidence and magnitude of apical root resorption will be estimated from pre- and post-treatment cone-beam computed tomograms (CBCTs)

    Measured: 6(plus or minus 1) months following initiation of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Surgically facilitated Orthodontic treatment and Conventional orthodontic treatment in people with Orthodontic Malocclusion, run by University of Minnesota.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of orthodontic tooth movement (time frame: 6 months(plus or minus 1 week)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01866345, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Nov 2019.
