About this study

Official title: Effect of Photobiomodulation by 808nm Diode Laser on the Stability of Orthodontic Mini-implants: A Randomized Clinical Split-Mouth Trial.

The study aimed to evaluate the influence of a 635nm diode laser on the stability of orthodontic mini-implants in vitro, as well as mini-implants failure rate (mini-implant loss) and patients pain level after the treatment. A randomized clinical split-mouth trial was concluded with 22 subjects (14 women, 8 men), 44 orthodontic mini-implants with a diameter 1.4mm and length of 10mm. Mini-implants were placed between teeth 3 and 4; and 13 and 14 (Universal Numbering System), in the area of the attached gingiva, 2 mm below mucogingival junction.

What is being measured

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

  1. stability of orthodontic mini-implants

    The mini-implants stability was estimated employing a Periotest device (Medzintechnik Gulden e K, Modautal, Germany). The Periotest measurement system includes the sound formed from contact between an object and a metallic tapping bar in a handpiece, which is electromagnetically driven and electronically verified. The Periotest response detection is analyzed through a fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. Simply put, the Periotest answer to tapping is estimated by an accelerometer and then analyzed. The signal generated by tapping is then transformed to a value called the Periotest value (PTV), which depends on the damping characteristics of the peri-implant tissue. The Periotest Test values (PTVs) are based on a numerical scale ranging from -8 to +50, defined by mathematical computation. The lower Periotest values indicate higher implant stability and thereupon the higher absorption effect of the target objects.

    Measured: 60 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pain level (NRS scale)

    Each patient received a questionnaire for individual pain assessment (the numeric rating scale, NRS-11, grade level 0-10) immediately following placement of mini-implants. The maximum pain level was measured at both sides of the maxilla during the first day after the treatment. The NRS-11 scale consists of a conscious, subjective assessment of the pain experienced; therefore, it is used in the case of patients over ten years old.

    0 = no pain, 1-3 = mild pain, 4-6 = moderate pain, 7-10 = severe pain.

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. mini-implants loss

    Mini-implants survival rate was assessed during 60 days observation period.

    Measured: 60 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Irradiation of implants with 808nm laser in people with Malocclusion, Angle Class II, run by Wroclaw Medical University at 1 site in Poland.

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 4 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 19 Feb 2020. 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 Poland. 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?

stability of orthodontic mini-implants (time frame: 60 days). 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 19 Feb 2020.
