Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the treatment effects of conventional twin block appliance versus modified twin block appliance in the treatment of patients in growing stage having skeletal class II division 1 with mandibular deficiency.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: twin block appliance
  • Device: modified twin block appliance
N/A

Detailed Description

in this randomized controlled trail there are 2 groups , the first group will receive modified twin block appliance ,in the second group will receive conventional twin block appliance . the follow up period will be 9 months till mandibular growth occur . the assessment will be through a questionnaire on the number of hours the appliance is worn each day , and another questionnaire assessing the difficulty of speech and aesthetics . Also by, photographs, x-rays and study models preoperative and post operative.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: twin block appliance

this group will receive conventional twin block appliance and followed up every month for 9 months.

Device: twin block appliance
a functional appliance that enhances mandibular growth in growing patients made from vaccum sheets (esthetic)
Other Names:
  • mandibular functional appliance
  • Experimental: modified twin block appliance group

    modified twin block appliance group , this group will receive the modified appliance and followed up every month for 9 months

    Device: modified twin block appliance
    a convetional twin block functional appliance that enhances mandibular growth in growing patients

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. enhancing mandibular skeletal growth [9 months]

      it will be assessed by measuring the incremental growth by quick ceph (mm)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. dentoalveolar changes [9 months]

      quick ceph (mm)

    2. Improvement of soft tissue profile [9 months]

      quick ceph (mm)

    3. Patient's compliance [9 months]
