About this study

Official title: OHRQoL Assessment Between Sliding Anterior Retraction and Micro-osteoperforations for Accelerated Orthodontics in Patients Who Were Assigned for Pre-molar Extraction and Decompensation

OHRQoL assessment using OHIP-14 between sliding anterior retraction with self-ligating brackets and micro-osteoperforations for accelerated orthodontics in orthognathic surgery patients who were assigned for pre-molar extraction and decompensation

Read the detailed description

Our patients are participants in a randomized clinical trial, an ongoing study about the effectiveness of micro-osteoperforations to accelerate tooth movement. The study sample consisted of 22 consecutive subjects - 12 females and 10 males - between the ages of 18 and 35, who were selected for ortho-surgical treatment and pre-molar extraction assigned for decompensation. The participants were randomly allocated to two groups: control (anterior retraction was performed using implant-assisted sliding mechanics with self-ligating brackets) and experimental (micro-osteoperforations were performed in the activation appointments for anterior retraction using implant-assisted sliding mechanics). For immediate and follow-up assessment of patients' perceptions, comparing regular orthodontic activation and activation with Accelerated Orthodontics, subjects were asked to complete an electronic questionnaire OHIP-14, to assess the participants' comfort level, experiences, and QoL impact.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • micro-osteoperforationsProcedure or surgery

    Three vertical micro-osteoperforations, using Excellerator, in the buccal extracted site were executed following the aseptic procedure and local anesthesia

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Micro-osteoperforationsExperimentalMinimally invasive micro-osteoperforations procedure used to achieve accelerated orthodontic tooth movement. Topical and local anesthetic will be delivered in the area to be treated in accordance with standard practice
Receives: Procedure: micro-osteoperforations
ControlNo interventionAnterior retraction after premolars extraction will be done conventionally (sliding mechanics)

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparision of OHRQoL between groups - OHIP-14A

    comparision of OHIP-14A results between groups after appointment for anterior retraction: The sum of the numeric scores for each participant in all 14 items, with a maximum score of 56 (4x14);

    Measured: 4 days

  2. Comparision of OHRQoL between groups - 7 domains

    comparision of each OHIP-14 domain results between groups after appointment for anterior retraction: To evaluate which domains had the most impact during the trial, the answers for each question were combined as pairs and summed for statistical analysis.

    Measured: 4 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing micro-osteoperforations in people with Malocclusion, run by University of Sao Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Comparision of OHRQoL between groups - OHIP-14A (time frame: 4 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 23 Jan 2018.
