About this study

Official title: Infra-zygomatic Mini Implant Supported Appliance for Distalization and Intrusion of Maxillary Dentition Compared to Headgear in Growing Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial

The aim of the study is to compare an Infra-zygomatic Mini implant supported appliance with headgear in distalization and intrusion of maxillary dentition for treatment of growing patients with class II malocclusion (maxillary excess)

Read the detailed description

In this randomized trial, 2 groups will be included. The first group will receive an Infra-zygomatic Mini implant supported appliance. In the second group, the patient will receive a removable high pull headgear. the follow-up period will be 8 months or till class I canine or incisors relation is obtained. the assessment will be through a lateral cephalogram

Being tested
Infra-zygomatic Mini Implant Supported Appliance, high pull head gear
Medical subject headings
Malocclusion, Angle Class II

What participants receive

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

  • Infra-zygomatic Mini Implant Supported ApplianceDevice

    1. leveling and alignment of the four maxillary incisors
    2. infra zygomatic mini-implant will be placed bilaterally
    3. wire frame work that is designed resembling the inner bow of headgear will be adapted to the upper arch
    4. a heavy arch wire engaging the 4 incisors will be attached to the wire frame work
    5. orthopedic force will be delivered from the mini-implants to the wire frame work
  • high pull head gearDevice

    1. acrylic maxillary splint is made with flying tubes
    2. high pull head gear is adapted to be inserted in the flying tubes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Infra-zygomatic Mini Implant Supported Appliance and high pull head gear in people with Class II Division 1 Malocclusion, 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 8 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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

Contact Ahmed Afifi (+201007025732, Ahmed.Khaled@dentistry.cu.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Anteroposterior position changes of upper first molars. (time frame: 8 months). 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.
