About this study

Official title: Biological Anchorage With Selective Micro-osteroperforations (MOPs) in Canine Distalization

To evaluate the effect of selective micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the amount of distal movement of the upper canine, the mesio-distal inclination of the canine and the messiah movement of the upper first molar.

Methods: Clinical trial with Split mouth design in 35 orthodontic patients with bilateral extraction of the upper first premolar, each upper canine will be randomly assigned to the intervention (MOP) or to the control side. Participants will be followed for 3 months and the investigators will take periapical radiographs, cast models and clinical measurements before and after canine retraction. The measurements will be taken by previously calibrated operators. The results are going to be determined and compared between sides, with the corresponding statistical tests and the results are going to be analyzed.

Read the detailed description

PICO QUESTION: ¿Does the amount of distal orthodontic movement of the upper canine increase in the side with MOPs compared with the side without MOPs? Population: Orthodontic patients with bilateral extraction of the upper first premolar (Split mouth design trial) Intervention: Distal movement of the upper canine with Selective MOPs (distal to canine) in one hemi-arch Comparison: Distal movement of the upper canine without MOPs in the other hemi-arch Outcome: Canine and first molar movements

GENERAL AIM:

  • To evaluate the effect of selective micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the amount of distal movement of the upper canine, the M-D inclination of the canine and the mesial movement of the upper first molar.

METHODS

OVERVIEW OF DESIGN Study Design: Randomized controlled clinical trial in split mouth design.

  • Randomly assign upper canines in to 2 sides in a split mouth design study: one side to receive intervention (MOPs) and the other side as a control (without MOPs).
  • Then follow both sides for three months
  • Split mouth design method: The investigators are going to randomly assign to the patients' left or right sides, one side for the intervention and the other side for the control (to eliminate the possibility of selection bias).
  • Blinding: It is not possible to blind participants and clinical staff, but the investigators are going to blind the operators who will perform the measurements and the data analysis (single-blinded).

The participants will be with orthodontic fixed appliances (MBT prescription slot 0.022 "x0.028", canine torque 0 °), with working arches 0.019 "x0.025" stainless steel and with bilateral extractions of the first upper premolars for 6 months or more. For this moment the crowding must be resolved and there must be a space of 3 or more millimeters between the canines and second premolars.

The 4 upper incisors will be consolidated with a 0.010 "stainless steel ligature below the arch to prevent opening of anterior spaces.

Observation:

  • No transpalatal arch (TPA) will be used in any of the participants
  • It is going to place a mini-implant in the palate for reference point before the start of the experiment PLANS FOR RECRUITMENT Patients of the Clinic University (UniCIEO) and Antioquia University POTENCIAL CONFOUNDING VARIABLES

What participants receive

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

  • micro-osteoperforations (MOPs)Procedure or surgery

    three (3) micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) in the cortical and medullar bone, distal to the upper canine. These MOPs will be at the apical, medial and gingival zone of the bone located at the distal surface of the canine in the buccal and in the palatal side. The deep of the MOPs will be at 6 mm. It is going to be done with a PROPEL

What is being measured

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

  1. Amount of distal movement of the upper canine

    Distance from a tangent to a reference point in the palate (third palatal ruga) to the distal side of the upper canine (measured in digital models)

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

  2. Inclination of the upper canine, second premolar and first molar

    The angle between the long axis of the clinical crown and the reference plane the occlusal plane.(measured in digital models)

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

  3. Angulation of the upper canine, second premolar and first molar

    The long axis of the posterior buccal surface is going to be measured relative to the occlusal plane (measured in digital models)

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

  4. Amount of mesial movement of upper first molar

    Distance from a tangent to a reference point in the palate (third palatal ruga) to the mesial side of the upper first molar (measured in digital models)

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Periodontal status

    It's going to be measured by clinical exam

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

  2. Evaluation of the perception of pain by the patient: VAS

    Pain visual analogue scale (AVS) - from 0 to 10 points, Higher values represent more pain perception by the participant

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

  3. Number of participants with postoperative inflammation and/or infection

    Inflammation, infection by clinical exam

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

  4. Number of upper canines with external root resorption

    Periapical radiograph

    Measured: Change from baseline at three months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) in people with Teeth Mesial Drift and Bone Injury, run by Fundación Universitaria CIEO at 2 sites in Colombia.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Colombia. 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 was stopped early (reason given: The requiered sample were not recruited due to COVID-19 pandemic). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Amount of distal movement of the upper canine (time frame: Change from baseline at three months). The study lists 4 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 12 Mar 2021.
