About this study

Measuring the accuracy of a new technique by which root positions can be predicted at the pre-finishing stage of the comprehensive orthoodntic treatment

Read the detailed description

A CBCT is taken Pre-Treatment

Segmentation of teeth is done from the CBCT exported as STL files and kept aside.

Routine comprehensive orthodontic treatment is done till pre-finishing stage.

Impression for teeth is taken at this timepoint.

A cast is poured and laser scanned.

Now the investigators have segmented teeth and a cast with new crown positions

The investigators will superimpose the teeth on the crowns of the digital cast to obtain the " Predicted Root Position" (PRP)

To check accuracy of this Prediction a CBCT is taken and compared to the prediction to check its accuracy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Orthodontic Appliance Complication, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Accuracy of Root Position Prediction as assessed by Color Map Heat Analysis (time frame: 9 months). 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 21 Aug 2018.
