Abstract

Background: The self-ligating bracket system and corticision are two methods for acceleration of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM).

Objectives: The current study aimed to assess the effect of a self-ligating bracket system combined with corticision on the rate of OTM.

Patients and methods: The present study was conducted on 16 female patients divided into two groups: an experimental group of eight patients treated by self-ligating bracket systems used as fixed orthodontic appliances combined with a corticision as a minimally invasive surgical technique for accelerating OTM, and a control group of eight patients treated only by self-ligating bracket systems used as fixed orthodontic appliances. The primary outcome was the percentage of change in Little's Index of Irregularity (LII). The secondary outcome was the time taken to finish the leveling and alignment stage.

Results: In a comparison of the percentage of change in LII for the upper arch between the two groups, the experimental group recorded values that were significantly greater than those recorded in the control group at all time intervals T0-T7, except for T8-T10, which were similar. Both groups recorded (100 ± 0%), with no significant difference between groups (P = 1).

Conclusion: The combination of two methods for acceleration of OTM, a self-ligating bracket system combined with corticision, accelerates the rate of OTM more than in the case of using a self-ligating bracket system only.

自结扎托架系统结合矫正对正畸牙齿移动率的影响:一项对照临床试验。
背景:自结扎托架系统和矫正是加速正畸牙齿移动的两种方法。目的:目前的研究旨在评估自结扎支架系统结合矫正对OTM率的影响。患者和方法:16例女性患者分为两组:实验组8例采用自结扎支架系统作为固定正畸器,联合皮质化作为加速OTM的微创手术技术;对照组8例仅采用自结扎支架系统作为固定正畸器。主要观察指标为利特尔不规则指数(LII)变化百分比。次要结果是完成平准阶段所需的时间。结果:比较两组间上弓LII变化百分比,除T8-T10相似外,实验组在T0-T7各时间间隔记录的数值均显著大于对照组。两组均记录(100±0%),组间差异无统计学意义(P = 1)。结论:联合使用自结扎托架系统和矫治比单独使用自结扎托架系统更能加速OTM的发生。
