Trial summary

The role of head posture has been demonstrated in patient with dentofacial deformities. However, the relationship between body posture and jaw disorders is unclear. Moreover, patients with obstructive sleep apnea have the same anatomical abnormalities than patients with dentofacial deformities. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Nocturnal Respiratory Disorders Identification and Their Influence on the Body Posture and Breathing Synchronisation in Patients With Dentofacial Dysgnathia

The role of head posture has been demonstrated in patient with dentofacial deformities. However, the relationship between body posture and jaw disorders is unclear. Moreover, patients with obstructive sleep apnea have the same anatomical abnormalities than patients with dentofacial deformities. The aim of this study is to evaluate, firstly, nocturnal sleeping disorders among patients with jaw disorders. Secondly, the investigators aim to evaluate the interaction between body posture, breathing and dentofacial deformities.

A polygraphy will be performed on patient with dentofacial deformities before and after correcting jaw surgery. A postural evaluation will be done using EOS imaging system and a force plate

Being tested

Receives: Other: polysomnography

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in 2D displacement range of the pressure center

    Pressure center is recorded with force plates 1month before and 1 year after orthognathic surgery

    Measured: Baseline, 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change in EOS criteria description

    Criteria: pelvic tilt, cervical lordosis, C7 sagittal vertical axis, T1 slope thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis , pelvic incidence, sacral slope. 1month before and 1 year after orthognathic surgery

    Measured: Baseline, 1 year

  2. Change Stabilometric criteria description

    2D displacement of the pressure center according to the anteroposterior axis, the lateral axis. 2D displacement speed. 1month before and 1 year after orthognathic surgery

    Measured: Baseline, 1 year

  3. Change in Cephalometric analysis

    Lateral cephalograms are recorded before and after surgery

    Measured: Baseline, 1 year

  4. Change Polygraphy criteria description

    Apnea-hypopnea index, oxygen saturation , before and after orthognathic surgery

    Measured: Baseline, 1 year

  5. Change in Dentofacial deformities description

    Clinical evaluation before and after surgery

    Measured: Baseline, 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing polysomnography in people with Dentofacial Deformities and Sleep Disorder, run by Laboratoire de Biomécanique Georges Charpak at 1 site in France.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 5 Sep 2025. 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 France. 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?

Change in 2D displacement range of the pressure center (time frame: Baseline, 1 year). 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 5 Sep 2025.
