Beskrivelse
Inclusion Criteria:
- Skeletal Class I (ANB angle 0-4°), dental Class II malocclusion treatable with molar distalization
- Need for unilateral or bilateral distalization of the first molars in the range of 2-4.5 mm
- Chronological age between 13 and 18 years, regardless of skeletal age
- Normal or hypodivergent growth pattern (SN-GoGn < 39°)
- Mild to moderate maxillary crowding (less than 6 mm) and minimal or no mandibular crowding (less than 3 mm)
- No previously extracted maxillary teeth, excluding third molars
- Erupted permanent second molars
- Good oral hygiene
- Healthy periodontal tissues
Exclusion Criteria:
- Need for orthodontic tooth extraction or functional appliance therapy
- Presence of systemic disease
- Congenital or acquired craniofacial deformity involving the condyle or mandible
- Poor patient cooperation
- History of allergy to any metal
- Pre-existing root resorption prior to treatment
- Previous orthodontic treatment
- Abnormal position, depth of impaction, or close proximity to adjacent anatomical structures (sinus, neurovascular structures) of the maxillary third molar that would make its surgical extraction risky

Amount of Maxillary Posterior Tooth Distalization
Tidsramme: From the date of infrazygomatic crest miniscrew placement and initiation of distalization force (T0) until the end of the active distalization phase (T1), assessed up to 13 months
|
The amount of distalization of the maxillary premolars and molars (U4, U5, U6, U7) was measured in millimeters using three-dimensional digital dental model analysis, comparing pre-treatment (T0) and post-distalization (T1) records.
|
From the date of infrazygomatic crest miniscrew placement and initiation of distalization force (T0) until the end of the active distalization phase (T1), assessed up to 13 months

|
Distalization Efficacy in Clear Aligner Groups
Tidsramme: From treatment planning (T0) until the end of active distalization (T1), assessed up to 13 months
|
Distalization efficacy was calculated as the ratio of achieved to planned tooth movement (Efficacy = Achieved/Planned × 100), based on digital treatment planning, for the Invisalign and ClearCorrect groups.
|
From treatment planning (T0) until the end of active distalization (T1), assessed up to 13 months
|
|
Infrazygomatic Crest Miniscrew Success Rate
Tidsramme: From the date of miniscrew placement until the end of active distalization, assessed up to 13 months
|
The success rate of infrazygomatic crest miniscrews used for anchorage was recorded, defined as the proportion of miniscrews remaining stable and functional throughout the distalization period without requiring replacement.
|
From the date of miniscrew placement until the end of active distalization, assessed up to 13 months
|
|
Cephalometric Skeletal, Dental, and Soft Tissue Changes
Tidsramme: From the date of miniscrew placement and start of distalization force (T0) until the end of active distalization (T1), assessed up to 13 months
|
Skeletal, dental, and soft tissue changes were assessed using lateral cephalometric radiographs, comparing measurements obtained at the beginning (T0) and end (T1) of distalization.
|
From the date of miniscrew placement and start of distalization force (T0) until the end of active distalization (T1), assessed up to 13 months
