Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary aim of the present study is to evaluate the the efficacy of micro-osteoperforation (MOPs) perfomed by mini-implant (MI) screw In improving alignment of mandibular anterior teeth

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primarily the present study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of micro-osteoperation (MOPs) perfomed by mini-implant (MI) screw In improving alignment of mandibular anterior teeth. Additionally, the possibility of inducing root resorption, and patient perception of pain during the initial phase of treatment.

Subjects and Methods: Orthodontic patients aged 17-25 years old, non-extraction treatment with lower anterior crowding of 4-6 mm using Little's irregularity index. Outcome measures included the amount of crowding using Little's irregularity index (LII), apical root resorption, and pain perception. The effectiveness of alignment will be tested using t-test, while root resorption and pain perception will be tested by the Mann-Whitney U test, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test (P\<0.05).

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Investigators Outcome Assessors

Blinding to treatment allocation was possible only for the investigator and data analyst because the clinicians could know the intervention as osteo-perforation can be obviously seen clearly. Masking the intervention for the participants were not possible because micro-osteoperforation is a surgical procedure. All the trial documents were labeled with the study ID number, which was used for participant identification and data collection without unmasking the allocation group. This allowed the investigator to complete data collection and measurements blindly.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Micro-Osteoperforation group

All the participants bonded by the care provider with 0.022 inch MBT prescription appliance (Ortho TechanologyTM,USA). Mini-implant facilitated micro-osteoperforation (MOPs) were placed in the experimental group before placing the initial leveling arch wire. MOPs were placed at three sites i.e., interproximally between mandibular canine and lateral incisor on both sides and between central incisors in the midline on labial aspect of mandible.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Micro-osteoperforation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Mini-implant facilitated micro-osteoperforation (MOPs) were placed in the experimental group before placing the initial leveling arch wire. MOPs were placed at three sites i.e., interproximally between mandibular canine and lateral incisor on both sides and between central incisors in the midline on labial aspect of mandible.

Control group

All the participants in this group bonded by the principal investigator with 0.022-inch slot MBT prescription appliance (Ortho TechanologyTM,USA). No micro-osteoperforation was used in this group.
