Evaluation of the Levels of Pain and Discomfort Between Two Methods of Leveling and Alignment

15 april 2020 uppdaterad av: Damascus University

The Effect of Corticision on Perceived Pain and Discomfort for Patients With Crowded Lower Anterior Teeth: Randomized Clinical Trial

The duration of orthodontic treatment is one of the exacerbation causes of orthodontic pain. Several methods have been suggested to reduce the duration of orthodontic treatment classified to surgical and non-surgical methods.

Researches used minimally invasive surgical methods like corticision, piezocesion, micro-osteoperforation, and piezo-puncture indicated that most of these methods can accelerate dental movement by 20 - 40% without causing additional pain as a result of using those methods. Applying corticision on the lower anterior teeth using a surgical blade and a hammer may accelerate tooth alignment during orthodontic treatment. This study consists of two groups, patients will be randomly assigned to one of these two groups.

Detaljerad beskrivning

Pain is defined as an unpleasant emotional sensory experience associated with actual or potential harm. It was mentioned as one of the most common complaints related to orthodontic treatment, and around 65-95% of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment suffer from various degrees of pain.

Corticision is one of the minimally invasive surgical procedures that is not associated with flap lifting. It was used to accelerate tooth movement in animals and case report studies. Its application on humans may aggravate their fear and anxiety towards the pain that may accompany this technique.

No study in the literature has been searched in patient perception of pain, discomfort, levels of acceptance and satisfaction accompanied corticision application, but in this study, these previous variables accompanied corticision technique have been studied on crowded lower anterior teeth cases which are one of the most common types of malocclusion.

Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: Corticision
Patients will undergo a corticision procedure in order to accelerate tooth movement
Surgical intervention is going to be used in the interdental areas between the lower anterior teeth to accelerate tooth movement. Three incisions are going to be made
Aktiv komparator: Traditional treatment
Patients will undergo traditional orthodontic treatment without any surgical intervention.
No surgical intervention will be used, just normal orthodontic sequence of procedures.

Åtgärdsbeskrivning
Tidsram
Change in the Perception of Pain
Tidsram: At 24 hours following the onset of treatment (bonding of the appliance), then at 7 days, 14 days following the onset of orthodontic treatment
Pain is assessed by asking the study participant to place a mark on a horizontal 100 mm line to indicate the level of pain being experienced. The left end of the line refers to no pain (VAS=0) where the right end refers to maximum (unimaginable) pain (VAS=100). The level of pain is represented in the number of millimeters measured from the left end of the line to the mark pointed out by the patient. This is called the Visual Analogue Score (VAS) where the higher the number is the more intense the pain.
At 24 hours following the onset of treatment (bonding of the appliance), then at 7 days, 14 days following the onset of orthodontic treatment
Change in the Perception of Discomfort
Tidsram: At 24 hours following the onset of treatment (bonding of the appliance), then at 7 days, 14 days following the onset of orthodontic treatment
Discomfort is assessed by asking the study participant to place a mark on a horizontal 100 mm line to indicate the level of discomfort being experienced. The left end of the line refers to no discomfort (VAS=0) where the right end refers to maximum discomfort (VAS=100). The level of discomfort is represented in the number of millimeters measured from the left end of the line to the mark pointed out by the patient.

Change in the Perception of Swelling
Tidsram: At 24 hours following the onset of treatment (bonding of the appliance), then at 7 days, 14 days following the onset of orthodontic treatment
Swelling is assessed by asking the study participant to place a mark on a horizontal 100 mm line to indicate the level of swelling being experienced. The left end of the line refers to no swelling (VAS=0) where the right end refers to maximum swelling (VAS=100). The level of swelling is represented in the number of millimeters measured from the left end of the line to the mark pointed out by the patient.

Tidsram: At 24 hours following the onset of treatment (bonding of the appliance), then at 7 days, 14 days following the onset of orthodontic treatment
Difficulties of mastication are assessed by asking the study participant to place a mark on a horizontal 100 mm line to indicate the level of difficulties in mastication being experienced. The left end of the line refers to no difficulties (VAS=0) where the right end refers to maximum difficulties (VAS=100).
