Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to evaluate effects of clear aligners versus fixed appliances on occlusion after treatment of mild anterior crowding a T-scan study.

Detailed Description

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

Intervention:

Group 1. Patients treated with clear aligner. Patients with mild anterior crowding will be treated with non-extraction treatment using clear aligners.

Group 2. Patients treated with fixed appliance. Patients with mild anterior crowding will be treated with non-extraction treatment using fixed appliances.

Observations:

Multi-bite closure of left and right excursive T-ScanĀ® recordings were obtained before and after treatment from each subject to measure the occlusal parameters to be analyzed during this study.
