Abstract

Background: Orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances is often necessary to correct malocclusions in adolescence or adulthood. However, oral hygiene is complicated by appliances, and prior studies indicate that they may trigger oral inflammation and dysbiosis of the oral microbiota, especially during the first 3 months after insertion, and, thus, may present a risk for inflammatory oral diseases. In recent periodontal therapeutic studies, probiotics have been applied to improve clinical parameters and reduce local inflammation. However, limited knowledge exists concerning the effects of probiotics in orthodontics. Therefore, the aim of our study is to evaluate the impact of probiotics during orthodontic treatment.

Methods: This study is a monocentric, randomized, double blind, controlled clinical study to investigate the effectiveness of daily adjuvant use of Limosilactobacillus reuteri (Prodentis®-lozenges, DSM 17938, ATCC PTA 5289) versus control lozenges during the first three months of orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances. Following power analysis, a total of 34 adolescent patients (age 12-17) and 34 adult patients (18 years and older) undergoing orthodontic treatment at the University Hospital Erlangen will be assigned into 2 parallel groups using a randomization plan for each age group. The primary outcome measure is the change of the gingival index after 4 weeks. Secondary outcomes include the probing pocket depth, the modified plaque index, the composition of the oral microbiota, the local cytokine expression and-only for adults-serum cytokine levels and the frequencies of cells of the innate and adaptive immune system in peripheral blood.

Discussion: Preventive strategies in everyday orthodontic practice include oral hygiene instructions and regular dental cleaning. Innovative methods, like adjuvant use of oral probiotics, are missing. The aim of this study is to analyse, whether probiotics can improve clinical parameters, reduce inflammation and prevent dysbiosis of the oral microbiota during orthodontic treatment. If successful, this study will provide the basis for a new strategy of prophylaxis of oral dysbiosis-related diseases during treatment with fixed appliances.

Trial registration: This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov in two parts under the number NCT04598633 (Adolescents, registration date 10/22/2020), and NCT04606186 (Adults, registration date 10/28/2020).

Conflict of interest statement

The company BioGaia AB provides non-financial support by supply of the Limosilactobacillus reuteri Prodentis®-lozenges (DSM 17938, ATCC PTA 5289) and control lozenges. The design, management, analyses, reporting of the study, interpretation of data and the decision to submit results are entirely independent of the non-financial supporter.

A time line showing all five study time points is given. Base line (T0) = before the insertion of the fixed appliance; T1 =  ~ one week (w) after insertion of fixed appliance/ start of lozenge intake; T2 =  ~ four w after insertion of fixed appliance/ start of lozenge intake; T3 =  ~ 12w after insertion of the fixed appliance = last day of lozenge intake; T4 =  ~ 24w after insertion of fixed appliance = 24w after start of lozenge intake = 12w after end of lozenge intake
