About this study

Official title: Three Dimensional Analysis of the Rate of Space Closure With Piezocision-based Corticotomy in Different Facial Types: A Split-mouth Design Randomized Controlled Trial

23 female participants with class II div I will have extraction of bilateral first bicuspids 10 weeks after bond- up appointment. The extracted teeth will be preserved in special containers for subsequent microscopic analysis. Four months later, upon space closure phase, the patient will have a piezocision surgery on one side randomly chosen. Virtual models will be generated once before the surgery and monthly after for four and a half months. The models will be scanned by CADCAM and later tooth movement will be analyzed in regards to the rugae area.

What participants receive

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

  • Piezocision SurgeryProcedure or surgery

    After a surgical cut using #15 surgical blade 2-3 mm distal to the canine a pizocision using piezo-surgery device is made.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of space closure

    Every six weeks from the first impression, made on the day of surgery (T0), an impression will be taken, (T1, T2, T3). Images of the impressions will be generated using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CADCAM) to evaluate the space changes from a fixed reference point; the rugae area.

    Measured: four and half months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Root resorption

    The extraction will take place 10 weeks after the bonding up-appointment. Atraumatic extraction of the upper first premolars will be executed. The periodontist, performing the extraction, will have the extracted teeth stored in containers that contain sterilized deionized water.

    Each tooth will be placed in ultrasonic bath for 10 minutes to loosen any residual periodontal ligament's and soft tissue fragments' traces which will be later removed by wet gauze with a rubbing motion. Each tooth will be scanned three dimensionally by a desktop X-ray micro-tomography system. Teeth will be scanned with X-rays while being rotated over 360°. Three-dimension object will be generated by a 3D cone beam reconstruction algorithm utilizing the 2D images that have resulted from the scanning process.

    Measured: Ten weeks

Model description
The design will be a split-mouth where the participants should need extraction based treatment in collateral sides of the upper arch with one of the sides serving as the treatment while the other will be the control. Then they will be grouped based on their facial type.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Piezocision Surgery in people with Class II Div 1 Malocclusion, run by Jordan University of Science and Technology at 1 site in Jordan.

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 10 inclusion and 7 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 16 Feb 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 Jordan. 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?

Rate of space closure (time frame: four and half 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 16 Feb 2021.
