About this study

Official title: Comparison Between the Effectiveness of Different Commercial Bracket Brands, Having Roth Prescription and 0.022" Bracket Slot: A Randomized Clinical Trial

There's a scarcity in literature concerning the comparison of the effectiveness of brackets in its torque and tip ability, the time takes for leveling and alignment comparing between different orthodontic bracket brands, and its effect on the rate of tooth movement. The purpose of this study is to determine, In orthodontic patients with Class I molar relation and teeth crowding, in which different bracket brands will be compared.

Read the detailed description

Bracket effectiveness can be measured in a variety of ways, including torque, tip, time required for levelling and alignment, bracket failure, and the patient's visual analogue scale. All are viable options; therefore, we want to complete the orthodontic treatment and determine which brackets fulfilled the built-in bracket prescription and achieved success in terms of aesthetics, better smiles, better patient judgement, and function.

What participants receive

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

  • BracketsOther

    Levelling and alignment for the bonded teeth through following the wire sequence: 0.014 NiTi, 16 NiTi, 0.016×0.022 NiTi and 0.017×0.025 StSt. (Wires from American Orthodontics)

    • After levelling and aligning is completed the patient will be referred for the uptake of post intervention records; a standardized dental photograph and CBCT after 6- 9 months)

What is being measured

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

  1. Tip

    The principle investigator will examine pre and post CBCT radiographs in relation to lines and reference planes (measurements in degrees and mm)

    Measured: From pre to post levelling and alignment (an average of 6 - 8 months)

  2. torque

    The principle investigator will examine pre and post CBCT radiographs in relation to lines and reference planes (measurements in degrees and mm)

    Measured: 3 months after reaching 19x25 stainless steel wire (an average of 6 - 8 months)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Levelling and alignment

    The incisal edges of the anterior teeth and the buccal cusps of the posterior teeth are placed on the same horizontal level; and alignment is the lining up of teeth of an arch in order to achieve normal contact point relationships will be assessed by measuring Little's Irregularity Index (LII) using study models taken of the patients (measured in mm)

    Measured: upto 6 months from the start of orthodontic treatment.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2022. 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?

Contact Salma K. Yacoub (01119174379 ext. +20, 20183314@fue.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tip (time frame: From pre to post levelling and alignment (an average of 6 - 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.

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 18 Apr 2022.
