Trial summary

In orthodontics, the teeth tend to move to the extraction space. This tooth movement becomes of larger importance when there is a crowding. During the COVID lockdown period, It was noted that some cases have a significant improvement and almost all the crowding was relieved without appliance activation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Decrowding Rate Post Premolar Extraction With and Without Fixed Appliance: Randomized Controlled Trial

In orthodontics, the teeth tend to move to the extraction space. This tooth movement becomes of larger importance when there is a crowding. During the COVID lockdown period, It was noted that some cases have a significant improvement and almost all the crowding was relieved without appliance activation.

Read the detailed description

In this randomized controlled trial, a sufficient number of patients would be randomly assigned into two groups; one with braces and one without fixed braces.

Study groups in NCT06416189
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
BracesActive comparatorFixed appliance would be bonded post teeth extraction (premolars). subsequently, leveling and alignment using sequence of archwires would be followed. The measurements would be done using models each month.
Receives: Device: Fixed appliances
Without bracesNo interventionExtraction of premolars and only observing the case over time. The measurements would be done using models each month.

What is being measured

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

  1. Anterior teeth alignment every 4 weeks at each time point.

    The cumulative before extraction and space closure for 4 months (mean difference before and after)..

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Molar anchorage loss at each time point.

    The anchorage loss of molars will be measured over time using the models.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Gingival invagination

    this will be measured by visual inspection intraorally.

    Measured: 9 months
