About

OHRQoL assessment using OHIP-14 between sliding anterior retraction with self-ligating brackets and micro-osteoperforations for accelerated orthodontics in orthognathic surgery patients who were assigned for pre-molar extraction and decompensation

Full description

Our patients are participants in a randomized clinical trial, an ongoing study about the effectiveness of micro-osteoperforations to accelerate tooth movement. The study sample consisted of 22 consecutive subjects - 12 females and 10 males - between the ages of 18 and 35, who were selected for ortho-surgical treatment and pre-molar extraction assigned for decompensation. The participants were randomly allocated to two groups: control (anterior retraction was performed using implant-assisted sliding mechanics with self-ligating brackets) and experimental (micro-osteoperforations were performed in the activation appointments for anterior retraction using implant-assisted sliding mechanics). For immediate and follow-up assessment of patients' perceptions, comparing regular orthodontic activation and activation with Accelerated Orthodontics, subjects were asked to complete an electronic questionnaire OHIP-14, to assess the participants' comfort level, experiences, and QoL impact.
