Miniscrew Stability and Peri-implant Inflammation When Precoated K21 vs Ethanol Control
A Comparison of Miniscrew Stability and Peri-implant Inflammation When Precoated With Antimicrobial Quaternary Ammonium Compound K21 vs Ethanol Control in Orthodontic Patients: a Triple-blind, Split-mouth, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
University of Colorado, Denver
30 participants
Nov 11, 2022
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
To determine if coating miniscrews with K21 would increase the success rate of orthodontic miniscrews by reducing adjacent tissue inflammation.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria3
- Good general health, with no significant medical findings
- Requiring at least two miniscrews in their treatment plans (i.e., most participants will have two miniscrews, but some may receive four or six as indicated by their individual treatment plan)
- Miniscrew pairs indicated with comparable anatomical positions and comparable mechanics (direct vs. indirect anchorage).
Exclusion Criteria5
- Recent or ongoing use of antiresorptive pharmacological agents contraindicating the use of orthodontic miniscrews
- Less than 12 years of age
- Heavy tobacco use (>10 cigarettes/day)
- Peri-implant tissues must be observable at follow-up appointments
- Being unable or unwilling to consent to the study
