Maxillary Versus Bi-Maxillary Posterior Segments Intrusion Adult Subjects With Skeletal Open Bite

February 6, 2024 updated by: Heba El-Sayed Kamel Akl, Cairo University

Maxillary Versus Bi-Maxillary Posterior Segments Intrusion in Treatment of Adult Subjects With Skeletal Open Bite - A Randomized Clinical Trial

Compare between bi-maxillary (maxillary and mandibular) posterior dento-alveolar intrusion and maxillary posterior dento-alveolar intrusion as regards open bite closure.

Conditions

Detailed Description

Now, maxillary posterior dento-alveolar intrusion has been validated as a conservative treatment modality for treatment of skeletal open bite in adult patients. However, it was proved that mandibular posterior teeth extrusion take place during the treatment which results in reduction in the amount of open. bite closure. Therefore, the aim of our study is to compare in a randomized clinical trial methodology between maxillary posterior dento-alveolar intrusion and combined maxillary and mandibular posterior dento-alveolar intrusion in terms of anterior open bite closure.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Anterior open bite closure
Time Frame: 6 months
The amount of overbite gained as a result of posterior dento-alveolar intrusion
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Maxillary posterior teeth intrusion radiographically in millimeters.
Time Frame: 6 months
The distance travelled by maxillary premolars and molars of the right and left sides to a reference plane
6 months
Mandibular posterior teeth intrusion radiographically in millimeters.
Time Frame: 6 months
The distance travelled by mandibular premolars and molars of the right and left sides to a reference plane
6 months
Tip and torque of intruded teeth radiographically in degrees.
Time Frame: 6 months
• Torque change is measured as the change in the angle between the long axis of the intruded teeth and the FH plane (for tip) mid-sagittal plane (for torque).
6 months
