Brief Summary

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

Impacted canine causes many problems for patients, such as damage to the adjacent teeth roots, effects on gingival tissues, aesthetic problems, difficulty, and prolonged orthodontic treatment duration. Therefore, solutions to accelerate the movement of impacted canines with the help of surgical procedures to reduce treatment time will be investigated, such as intra-operative alveolar perforations and piezocision. We also aimed to evaluate periodontal changes associated with such accelerating procedures compared with the conventional traction method.

Detailed Description

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

Patients with palatally impacted maxillary canines will be treated using fixed appliances assisted by some surgical procedures. The effects of this treatment approach on the periodontal status will be assessed using periodontal measurements.

There are two groups :

1. conventional treatment group
2. minimally-invasive corticotomy-assisted treatment group Patients will be allocated to the two groups randomly. Data will be collected using periodontal variables.

Study Groups

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

Conventional treatment

Patients will be treated using the fixed appliances to track the impacted canines after opening the appropriate distance

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Fixed appliances

Intervention Type DEVICE

Metal brackets with a straight-wire prescription will be used. Patients will be treated conventionally.

Surgically-assisted treatment

Patients will be treated using fixed appliances assisted by minimally-invasive corticotomy (alveolar perforations and piezocision) to accelerate impacted canines' traction after opening the appropriate distance.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Corticotomy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patients will be treated in conjunction with a surgical intervention using metal brackets with a straight-wire prescription. Corticotomy (alveolar perforation and piezocision) will induce acceleration in canine traction movement during the orthodontic treatment in only one group.
