Brief Summary

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

Indirect anchorage (In-A) has been broadly used for anchorage reinforcement during anterior segment retraction. The study compared between the efficacy of rigid vs non-rigid connections of In-A i during upper canine retraction in dentoalveolar protrusion cases

Detailed Description

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

Fifteen female patients with dentoalveolar protrusion were included in this study. A miniscrew was inserted following levelling and alignment between the upper first molar and second premolar of both sides. Randomization was applied before first premolar extraction where one side of the arch received a rigid indirect anchorage connection (Group I) of 0.019 x 0.025-inch stainless steel (St.St) archwire from the miniscrew to the auxiliary tube of the upper first molar band, and the other side received a non-rigid indirect anchorage connection (Group II) of 0.014-inch St.St ligature ligating the upper second premolar to the miniscrew. Canine retraction was performed on 0.017 x 0.025-inch St.St archwire applying 1.5 N retraction force. The duration of the study was 7 months. Data was collected from digitized models where anchorage loss of the upper first molar relative to the frontal plane and the vertical position of the upper second premolar were measured

Study Groups

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

Non-Rigid connection

side received a non-rigid 0.014-inch St.St ligature ligating the upper second premolar to the miniscrew.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

non rigid indirect anchorage connection

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

a nonrigid connection is placed between the miniscrews and the second premolar to prevent mesial tooth movement.

Rigid Connection

rigid wire 19 x 25 inch stst wire was place between upper first molar and the miniscrew placed between the first molar and second premolar

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
