Condition: Impacted Canines · Sponsor: Malmö University
A multi-center Randomized Clinical Trial, (RCT) on treatment effectiveness of two different closed surgical exposure techniques, one including additional bone removal and a second conventional without removal of additional bone, during treatment of palatally impacted maxillary canines. A comparison between the two methods regarding the anchorage situation for the incisors will be performed as well. Introduction Surgical exposure of impacted maxillary canines together with orthodontic treatment has long been advocated. Closed exposure with placement of an auxiliary attachment with a chain, followed by traction of the canine with orthodontic forces is commonly clinical used to avoid complications with the open procedure (Kokich 2004). Both open and closed methods and orthodontic treatment are one of the most time-consuming orthodontic treatments. Therefore, it is valuable to try to find methods which can reduce the total treatment time and make the treatments as comfortable as possible for the patient. To reduce the treatment time, study I investigates a novel strategy for traction of the canine. Another strategy to reduce the treatment time might be to facilitate the movement of the canine by additional bone removal in the eruption direction out to the alveolar crest. This has been used of a few orthodontists in one clinic for some years. No negative side-effects have been seen. There are, however, no studies for comparison of the two techniques. Aim The primary aims of th…
