• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the Full Fixed Preadjusted appliances (regular braces) when to the BRIUS system.

Detailed description

This is a randomized controlled trial which aims to identify the effectiveness of alignment in the BRIUS group when compared to the full fixed appliance group. The secondary aim of the study is to identify any difference in discomfort experienced by the patients when undergoing treatment using the two appliances The investigators also aim to quantify the extent of tooth movement that is achieved through each appliance within a given time frame

Conditions

• Dental Malocclusion
• Angle Class II
• Angle Class I
• Crowding, Tooth

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	BRIUS	This is a device that is designed based on movements planned virtually on a computer program. Then all the planned movements are embedded into the wire causing the wire to have the necessary bends to move every tooth into its pre-planned final position. This causes the pre-activated wire to consistently express a low force over a long period of time onto all the teeth. This allows the teeth to move into the final position and treatment progresses towards completion
