Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effectiveness of Low Frequency Vibration on the Rate of Canine Retraction (NCT NCT05818527)

NCT ID: NCT05818527

Last Updated: 2023-08-01

Results Overview

. Retraction of the canine was done using NiTi coil spring delivering a force of 150 gm per side calibrated using digital force gauge, attached between the hook of the canine bracket and the first molar tube on a of 16\*2 stainless steel basal archwire. The intervention group subjects were given AcceleDent devices which delivered gentle micropulses (0.25 N at 30 Hz) and were instructed to wear them every day for 20 mins according to the manufacturer instructions. The patient compliance to intervention instructions were monitored by asking the patient and writing every day on chart how long she used it and compare this with the data download from the appliance that recorded their daily usage during the period of space closure. Follow-up visits were scheduled every four weeks. At each follow up visit, recalibration of the NiTi retraction spring was done using the same force gauge when necessary to maintain 150 gm force delivery.
