| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 (Control) | Experimental | Subjects assigned to this group receive fixed appliance orthodontic treatment only |
|
| Group 2 (OP1) | Experimental | Subjects assigned to this group receive fixed appliance orthodontic treatment in conjunction with receiving daily OrthoPulse⢠treatments. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed Appliance Orthodontic Treatment | Device | Patients receive fixed appliance orthodontic treatment by the qualified Principal Investigator (PI). Treatment and follow-up appointments per the traditional practices of the PI and dental office. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Rate of tooth movement in OrthoPulse treated and non-OrthoPulse treated patients | Rate of tooth movement will be evaluated based on the duration of time and amount of tooth movement required to reach Little's Irregularity Index (LII) of less than approximately 2 mm but greater than 0 mm, as determined by the qualified investigator. | From start of treatment until Little's Irregularity Index (LII) reaches less than approximately 2 mm but greater than 0 mm, no more than 6 months after the start of treatment. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Effect of OrthoPulse PBM on external apical root resorption (EARR) | Root lengths from patients will be measured using panoramic radiographs at the start of treatment and 6 months after the start of treatment. These measurements will be used to determine and compare EARR between each of the two groups. | 6 months after the start of orthodontic treatment |
