Study summary

The clinical hypothesis of this study is that a currently marketed mouthguard may also be able to reduce the symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing in children.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an mouthguard (Vivos Grow/Vivos Way) to reduce sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in children, including:

snoring, mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS) in children.

The subjects enrolled in this study will be using the Vivos Grow/Vivos Way to correct orthodontic issues and must also present with signs of SDB.

The study will recruit pediatric subjects who have already elected to utilize the study device for their orthodontic treatment; if they meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria they can be included in the study.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire

    Validated questionnaire for determining sleep-related breathing disorders, snoring, and behavior in childrne. The change in score on the PSQ will be assessed. It is scored from 0-1 with higher scores indicating increased symptoms of sleep disturbance and sleep-disordered breathing. Each question is tallied and an average of all answers (from 3 different subsections) gives the final score.

    Time frame: An initial evaluation before treatment and upon completion of the study (an average of 1 year)

  2. Sleep Study

    A home sleep study before and after treatment to assess any changes in sleep disturbance.

    Time frame: An initial evaluation before treatment and upon completion of the study (an average of 1 year)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Sleep Related Breathing Disordered Questionnaire (SRBD)

    A validated subsection of the PSQ, the change in SRBD score will be assessed. It is a 22-questions subset of the PSQ, also graded from 0-1 with scores rising as symptoms of SDB increase.

    Time frame: An initial evaluation before treatment and upon completion of the study (an average of 1 year)

  2. Airway Volume

    Measured using a 3D cone beam scan, the change in airway volume will be assessed.

    Time frame: An initial evaluation before treatment and upon completion of the study (an average of 1 year)

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Dec 22, 2022, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
