简要总结
To evaluate the effectiveness of pain reduction on a initial orthodontic treatment by using 810nm Diode laser compared to a placebo. Methods: This study will include two parallels groups, 30 adult patients each (mean age 18 - 40) that will be asked to fill a questionnaire related with pain before starting orthodontic treatment with Tip edge technique. Patients from one of the groups will receive laser therapy on both upper and lower maxillary according to the protocol. The patients from the other group will receive a placebo simulating a laser therapy on both maxillary. After the process, both groups will be checked on different times (12hrs-24hrs-48hrs-72hrs after) by filling a questionnaire related with pain each time.
详细描述
This is a parallel, double-blind, controlled, single-center clinical trial conducted in systemically healthy subjects requiring orthodontic treatment without extractions at the start of treatment in Bogotá, Colombia.
Sixty patients (60) will be randomized in a 1: 1 ratio, to either of the two arms of this trial.
This study will consist of a single visit by the patient, in this visit the assembly and activation of the upper and lower orthodontic appliances will be carried out.
Measurements of the primary outcome variable will be done remotely through a virtual pain monitoring questionnaire through a visual analog scale (Baseline, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours).
After Screening a computer-generated scrambling code will be used for allocation in blocks of 6 to the two treatments.

结局指标
主要结局
Measure the "Change in Orthodontic Pain Levels"
时间窗: Baseline (before treatment), 12 hours (after the start of treatment), 24 hours (after the start of treatment) 48 hours (after the start of treatment) 72 hours(after the start of treatment)
The evaluation of the difference in pain levels will be determined as a percentage of change and difference in means of pain levels. The difference and the percentage will be calculated by comparing the baseline pain levels observed between the different follow-up times. A rule of three is applied to determine the percentage of change (%) and a subtraction of the pain averages to calculate the difference. Pain analysis will be performed using the visual analog scale (VAS)
次要结局
- Need for analgesic(Baseline (before treatment), 12 hours (after the start of treatment), 24 hours (after the start of treatment) 48 hours (after the start of treatment) 72 hours(after the start of treatment))
