About this study

Official title: The Ability of the Multi-Looped Lingual Retainer Activated by A New Method to Align Lower Incisor Crowding

this study aim to evaluate the multi-looped lingual retainer activated by a new method to relief the anterior crowding

Read the detailed description
  1. patients preparation( photo- impression- x-ray- scan the lower cast to calculate the crowding )
  2. The multi-looped lingual retainer was fabricated on the patient's lower cast
  3. The lingual surfaces of teeth were etched with 35% phosphoric acid for 20 seconds The multi-looped lingual retainer was activated in the new way (Kattan method ) by tightening a steel ligature wire 0.010 inches, to the reinforcement 0.020-inch stainless steel arch-wire.
  4. the bonding agent was applied on such surfaces after a good isolation and was light-cured for 20 seconds.
  5. A flowable composite resin was applied. After checking its fit on the surface of the teeth, The lingual wire was bonded with a drop of flowable composite resin and was light-cured for 20 seconds.
  6. follow-up the patients * Outcomes: The improvement of lower incisors irregularity using Little Irregularity Index.
Being tested

    using multi-looped wire as a retainer

What is being measured

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

  1. The improvement of lower incisors irregularity using Little Irregularity Index.

    using multi-looped for relief crowding, the digital model analysis will be used to calculate the amount of irregularity by using Little Irregularity Index .the measurement will be done on 3-shape software.

    Measured: follow-up three to six months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The stability of lower incisor positioning after ending treatment

    using multi-looped as a retainer for stability to prevent the relapse after end treatment and the amount of lower incisor irregularity will be evaluated on scanned post-treatment digital models and measured on the 3-shape software.

    Measured: after 1-3 months

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 2 inclusion and 1 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?

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?

The improvement of lower incisors irregularity using Little Irregularity Index. (time frame: follow-up three to six 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 29 Mar 2024.
