About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Clinical Efficacy of Locally Injected Vitamin D3 (Calcitriol or 1,25 Dihidroxicolecalciferol) in Accelerating Orthodontic Tooth Movement (A Randomized Controlled Trial)

EVALUATION OF EFFICACY OF LOCALLY INJECTED Vitamin D3 (calcitriol or 1.25 dihidroxicolecalciferol) IN ACCELERATING ORTHODONTIC MOVEMENT Design: A randomized, controlled, crossover, double-blind clinical study including Eighteen adult , aged 15-25 years old.

Read the detailed description

The rate of orthodontic tooth movement depends on two general factors: the forces used in order to cause orthodontic tooth movement and respectively the individual (biological) response of the body to these forces.

There are many methods for accelerating orthodontic tooth movement. but, every method has its disadvantages, such as pain and root absorption. Locally injected of vitamin d3 was proposed to accelerates tooth movement with minimal disadvantages, but there aren't enough clinical studies to prove this claim.

Being tested
Dihydroxycholecalciferols, dimethyl sulfoxide, serum

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Outcome Measure was the overall time needed to complete leveling and aligning (OLAT) the mandible dental arch

    To calculate outcome measures, a mandible alginate impression was taken to make study casts at three time points:

    before insertion of the first archwire (T0), after 1 month of treatment commencement (T1), and at the end of the leveling and alignment stage (T2), represented by final archwire insertion.

    LII was used to measure the change in tooth alignment on the casts. It involved measuring the horizontal linear distance among adjacent contact points of the six anterior teeth. The sum of these five measurements gave the value of the index. LII was measured using a digital caliper to the nearest 0.01 mm by the corresponding author.

    OLAT was calculated by the number of days between T0 and T2.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Second Outcome Measure was leveling and alignment improvement percentage (LAIP) of the Mandible teeth throughout the leveling and alignment stage.

    OLAT was calculated by the number of days between T0 and T2. LAIP was calculated by dividing the amount of change in the LII value at a specific time point (T1, T2 ; calculated by subtracting the LII value at T1, T2 from the LII value at T0) by Lll value at T0. OLAT was calculated by the number of days between T0 and T2.

    LAIP was calculated by dividing the amount of change in the LII value at a specific time point (T1, T2 ; calculated by subtracting the LII value at T1, T2 from the LII value at T0) by Lll value at T0.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. VAS scale

    Measured: 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Dihydroxycholecalciferols, dimethyl sulfoxide and serum in people with Mild to Moderate Anterior Mandibular Segment Crowdind, run by Latakia University at 1 site in Syria.

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 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 30 Sep 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 Syria. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Primary Outcome Measure was the overall time needed to complete leveling and aligning (OLAT) the mandible dental arch (time frame: 6 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 30 Sep 2022.
