About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Treatment Duration of En-masse Versus Two Steps Retraction in Patients Having Maxillary Protrusion: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Brief summary: there's a scarcity in literature concerning time needed to retract anterior segment following premolars extraction. the purpose of this study is to determine, in orthodontic patients with maxillary protrusion, which form of technique of retraction offers a faster treatment duration of retraction : en-masse or two step techniques

Read the detailed description

Anterior segment retraction can be done in one of two ways: through En masse or two step techniques. Both are viable options, but, ideally, the investigator wanted to retract and complete the orthodontic treatment as quickly as possible, in order to decrease the negative effects that may occur during treatment. Which of these techniques results in a decreased treatment time is still up for debate.

Being tested
En masse retraction, Two-Step retraction

What participants receive

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

  • En masse retractionProcedure or surgery

    Retraction stated on a 0.017''x 0.025'' Stainless steel wire using elastomeric chain ( force applied 200 g per side) extending between the crimpable hooks and the mini-screw.

  • Two-Step retractionProcedure or surgery

    Retraction of canine started on a 0.017''x0.025'' Stainless steel wire using elastomeric chain ( force applied 150 g per side) followed by anterior teeth retraction on 0.017''x0.025'' Stainless steel wire using elastomeric chain ( force applied 160 g per side) extending between crimpable hooks and the mini-screw.

Study groups in NCT04921579
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
En masse retractionExperimentalsix anterior teeth are retracted by en masse technique using a crimpable hook distal to upper lateral incisor and a power chain.
Receives: Procedure: En masse retraction
two step retractionExperimentalsix anterior teeth are retracted by two step technique by canine retraction followed by four anterior teeth retraction using a crimpable hook distal to upper lateral incisor and a power chain.
Receives: Procedure: Two-Step retraction

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to close extraction space

    the antero-posterior movement of anterior teeth are assessed by monthly taken models and patient record sheets

    Measured: from pre to post retraction ( an average of 10 - 12 months)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Anchorage loss

    Digitalized dental models taken before and after completion of retraction will be measured by identifying landmarks and reference lines and planes ( measured in mm)

    Measured: From pre to post retraction ( an average of 10- 12 months)

  2. pain of intervention

    Each patient was informed to fill a questionnaire regarding treatment experience in Visual analogue scale scoring from (0 -10) 0 means no pain and 10 means severe pain

    Measured: From pre to post retraction ( an average of 10 - 12 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing En masse retraction and Two-Step retraction in people with Bimaxillary Protrusion, run by Future University in Egypt 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 6 inclusion and 5 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 10 Jun 2021. 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?

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?

Time to close extraction space (time frame: from pre to post retraction ( an average of 10 - 12 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 10 Jun 2021.
