To evaluate the effect of selective micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the amount of distal movement of the upper canine, the mesio-distal inclination of the canine and the messiah movement of the upper first molar.
Methods: Clinical trial with Split mouth design in 35 orthodontic patients with bilateral extraction of the upper first premolar, each upper canine will be randomly assigned to the intervention (MOP) or to the control side. Participants will be followed for 3 months and the investigators will take periapical radiographs, cast models and clinical measurements before and after canine retraction. The measurements will be taken by previously calibrated operators. The results are going to be determined and compared between sides, with the corresponding statistical tests and the results are going to be analyzed.
Full description
PICO QUESTION: ¿Does the amount of distal orthodontic movement of the upper canine increase in the side with MOPs compared with the side without MOPs? Population: Orthodontic patients with bilateral extraction of the upper first premolar (Split mouth design trial) Intervention: Distal movement of the upper canine with Selective MOPs (distal to canine) in one hemi-arch Comparison: Distal movement of the upper canine without MOPs in the other hemi-arch Outcome: Canine and first molar movements
GENERAL AIM:
METHODS
OVERVIEW OF DESIGN Study Design: Randomized controlled clinical trial in split mouth design.
The participants will be with orthodontic fixed appliances (MBT prescription slot 0.022 "x0.028", canine torque 0 °), with working arches 0.019 "x0.025" stainless steel and with bilateral extractions of the first upper premolars for 6 months or more. For this moment the crowding must be resolved and there must be a space of 3 or more millimeters between the canines and second premolars.
The 4 upper incisors will be consolidated with a 0.010 "stainless steel ligature below the arch to prevent opening of anterior spaces.
