About this trial

This study aims to three-dimensionally evaluate the efficiency of direct 3D printed aligners in achieving the planned root torque by using CBCT and to assess the associated bone thickness changes and root resorption.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age: 18- 45 years old.

Non- extraction treatment.

Angle Class I or Class II dental malocclusion with generalized or localized anterior spacing.

Normal probing depth.

Disqualifiers

Active periodontal disease.

Crowding cases.

Systemic diseases or medications that alter bone metabolism or tooth movement.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Direct printed aligners

    Other intervention

    After intraoral scanning and CBCT taking, patients will receive Direct printed aligners, each set will be changed after 10 days, till the patients finish their treatment, then a post-CBCT scan will be taken from each patient.
