• Conditions: Dental Malocclusions; Disorder of teeth and supporting structures, unspecified,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2019/08/020709
• Lead Sponsor: Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics

Brief Summary

Elastomeric chain and coil spring both exert lateral force on the implant, but the force given with elastomeric chain is intermittent and the force derived through a nickel titanium coil spring is continuous. This study investigates the stability of the implant when used with elastomeric chain on one side and coil spring on the other side.
