OrthoPulse Gen 2 Initial Device Evaluation and Assessment of Clinical Effectiveness (CA)

November 19, 2020 updated by: Biolux Research Holdings, Inc.

RI.2 OrthoPulse Gen 2 Initial Device Evaluation and Assessment of Clinical

This is a prospective, interventional, non-randomized, control, split-mouth, open-label, single centre, private practice study aimed to evaluate the effect of tooth movement during orthodontic treatment using a removeable thermoplastic orthodontic appliance. Intrusion and extrusion will be conducted using bilaterally equivalent elastomeric forces of 50 grams.

A comparison of the rate of bilateral orthodontic tooth movement will be conducted using six (6) varied photobiomodulation interventions on the maxillary (upper) and mandibular (lower) arches. The OrthoPulse Gen 2 and OrthoPulse (commercially approved) devices are being used in this clinical investigation. Each subject enrolled will go through intrusion and extrusion.

All subjects will be allocated to an OrthoPulse split-mouth intervention by the investigator.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The rate of orthodontic tooth movement
Time Frame: 36 days (±12 days) from T0 visit
The rate of orthodontic tooth movement during intrusion at 36 days (±12 days) from the T0 Visit (measured in mm per week).
36 days (±12 days) from T0 visit

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Peak Pain: Questionnaire
Time Frame: 7 Days

7 Days
Root Resorption
Time Frame: 36 days (±12 days) from T0 visit
Assess tooth resorption by measuring the root length of the first or second bicuspid bilaterally from baseline to T3
36 days (±12 days) from T0 visit
Initial Safety of Device
Time Frame: From enrolment to study completion, anticipated six (6) months
Confirmation of safety through collection of adverse events
From enrolment to study completion, anticipated six (6) months
