Study of OrthoPulse for Faster Orthodontic Treatment

This study is looking at how well the OrthoPulse device works to speed up tooth movement during orthodontic treatment with braces. The OrthoPulse device uses light to potentially accelerate how quickly your teeth move. You might be able to join if you are at least 18 years old, need orthodontic treatment with fixed braces, and have 4-10mm of crowding in your lower front teeth. The main goal is to see if people using OrthoPulse have faster tooth alignment compared to those who don't. The study aims to show that OrthoPulse could make teeth move about 1.8 times faster. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This study plans to enroll 42 participants and compares those using OrthoPulse to those receiving no intervention. It is an interventional study, but the phase is not specified.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The primary endpoint is measured 42 days after the start of treatment, indicating a follow-up period of at least this length.

  • The primary endpoint of this PMCF study is the rate of tooth alignment.42 days after start of treatment

    The primary endpoint of this PMCF study is the rate of tooth alignment as per Little's irregularity index LII (measured as the distance of linear displacement in mm divided by a unit of time between the lower arch anterior 6 teeth) during the time between baseline and 42 days after start of treatment.
