Occlusal Outcomes by OGS After a Finishing Protocol

October 17, 2018 updated by: Alvaro Carvajal, Universidad de Antioquia

OGS Scores After the Use of a New Finishing Protocol

Evaluation of the effects of the implementation of a new finishing protocol in orthodontics patients

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients who are being treated in the postgraduate orthodontic clinics and who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be subject to a detailed evaluation according to the OGS criteria and upon meeting the treatment completion criteria they will be placed an aligner with setup for 3 weeks. The scores obtained before and after the aligner will be compared with a historical control group The OGS score obtained for each group, will be compared and the impact of the protocol and the aligner will be evaluated
