Assessment of Different Orthodontic Tooth Movements Assisted With Low-level Laser Therapy vs. Injectable Platelets-rich Fibrin

Phase 1

• Conditions: Injectable Plasma-rich Fibrin Versus Low-Level Laser Therapy on Othodontic Movement

• Registration Number: NCT05966987
• Lead Sponsor: Al-Azhar University

Brief Summary

The present prospective clinical study will be undertaken for assessment of the effect of application of Injectable plasma-rich fibrin versus Low-Level Laser Therapy onthe rate of different orthodontic tooth movements,

Detailed Description

The present prospective clinical study will be undertaken for assessment of the effect of application of Inject able plasma-rich fibrin versus Low-Level Laser Therapy on the rate of different orthodontic tooth movements, namely: canine retraction, mandibular incisors leveling and alignment, maxillary molar distalization and maxillary incisor intrusion.

Inclusion Criteria

A- leveling and alignment Eligibility criteria

1. Complete permanent dentition (third molars not included).

2. Moderate mandibular anterior crowding (with Little's irregularity index score greater than 4 mm) who required nonextraction approach in the mandibular arch.

3. No tooth size, shape or root abnormalities visible on patient's radiographic records.

4. No spaces in the mandibular arch.

5. No blocked out tooth that did not allow for placement of the bracket at the initial bonding appointment.

6. No required management with interproximal stripping, intermaxillary elastics, open NiTi springs, and removable or extra-oral devices. Maxillary molar distalization Inclusion criteria:

7. Age ranges from 14 to 17 years. 2. Bilateral Class II molar relationship. 3. Skeletal Class I or mild Class II relationship. 4. Normal or decreased vertical height. 5. No posterior crowding or spaces. 6. Fully erupted maxillary first and second molars. 7. Congenitally missing or extracted third molars. 8. Good oral hygiene. 9. Absence of any periodontal disease and alveolar bone loss. 10. Absence of medications that may inhibit orthodontic movement
