An interventional study of Micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) and Conventional canine retraction in Malocclusion, sponsored by Hams Hamed Abdelrahman. Completed at 1 site in Egypt. Open to participants aged 15 Years to 20 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2021-07-20.
Sponsored by Hams Hamed Abdelrahman · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
the study aimed to clinically evaluate the effect of micro-osteoperforations on the rate of tooth movement, as evaluated by its effect on the rate of canine retraction.
Ten adult patients requiring maxillary first premolars' extraction were enrolled in this split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial.
Micro-osteoperforations were randomly assigned to one side of the maxillary arch at the canine-premolar region, and the contralateral side served as the control.
Mini-screws were used for anchorage reinforcement, and canine retraction was performed using nickel-titanium closed coil springs, delivering a force of 150 grams per side.
The primary outcome was the measurement of canine retraction rate throughout the study period from digital dental models obtained every 3 weeks.
The secondary outcome was the detection of possible canine tipping during retraction.
457 studies on the registry are indexed under Malocclusion; 89 are open to participants now.

MOPs included shallow perforations of the buccal cortical plate surrounding the tooth that requires orthodontic tooth movement, with no flap reflection was performed using a surgical bur using the special calibrated device called PROPEL
using nickel-titanium (NiTi) closed coil-springs delivering a force of 150 grams per side
Rate of canine retraction
measurements were recorded from digital dental models every 3 weeks
Time frame: 12 weeks
Measurment of canine tipping
Tipping of the maxillary canine during retraction was also evaluated from digital dental models
Time frame: 12 weeks
