About this study

Official title: Effect of Extraction Versus Non-extraction Orthodontic Treatment on the Third Molars: A Non-Randomized Clinical Trial /a Prospective Clinical Trial

What is the effect of extraction orthodontic treatment in comparison to non- extraction treatment on the position, inclination and incidence of impaction of the third molars?

Read the detailed description

Data regarding the personal information (name, age and gender), chief complaint, medical and dental history will be taken. Medical history questionnaire will be filled by the patient to exclude the presence of any systemic conditions.

complete set of orthodontic records will be taken; Pre- operative records including (standardized intra- and extra-oral photographs, primary impression for study model, panoramic \& lateral cephalogram). After formulating the best treatment plan for each patient, All patients will be enrolled into one of two groups: Intervention Group (I) : Extraction treatment group. Comparator group (C): Non-extraction group. Following the end of treatment, Post-treatment records including (standardized intra- and extra-oral photographs, primary impression for study model, panoramic \& lateral cephalogram) will be taken.

Primary outcome: The angulation of the mandibular third molars.Secondary outcomes:

  1. space available for the upper and lower third molar.
  2. Angulation of the third molar.
  3. The vertical position of the third molars.
  4. the mineralization status of the third molars
Being tested
extraction orthodontic treatment plan
Keywords

What participants receive

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

  • extraction orthodontic treatment planProcedure or surgery

    patients will be referred for extraction of the upper and lower first premolars then orthodontic treatment will follow.

Study groups in NCT04857658
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
extraction treatmentActive comparatorpatients will be referred for extraction of the upper and lower first premolars to relieve the crowding.
Receives: Procedure: extraction orthodontic treatment plan
non-extraction treatmentNo interventionLeveling and alignment of the moderate crowding will be performed through a recall visits of 4 weeks for wire activation. inter-proximal reduction step might be done if needed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing extraction orthodontic treatment plan in people with Orthodontic Treatment Via Premolar Extraction, 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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2023. 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?

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?

third molar angulation (time frame: at the end of orthodontic treatment). 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 7 Sep 2023.
