Orthodontic Wires
Conditions
Brief summary
The Wire Syndrome problem referred to dental displacements that can be described as aberrant, inaccurate, unexplained, or excessive on teeth still contained by an intact orthodontic wire, without detachment or fracture, leading to evolving dental and periodontal, aesthetic and/or functional consequences. The objective of this study was to define the prevalence of mandibular wire syndrome and the associated risk factors.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Prevalence of the Wire Syndrome | End : July 2023 | The prevalence of wire syndrome is the number of people affected by the wire syndrome at a given time in a given population. The prevalence rate is calculated by dividing this number of cases by the size of the exposed population. This study was design as a cross-sectional study conducted in the Orthodontics Unit of the Nice University Hospital from July 2022 to July 2023. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Identify risk factors associated with wire syndrome - clinical examination periodontium | End : July 2023 | Intraoral clinical examination: type of periodontium: thin and scalloped or flat and thick |
| Identify risk factors associated with wire syndrome - clinical examination - Angle | End : July 2023 | Intraoral clinical examinations: molar and canine relationships according to the Angle's classification class I, class II, Class III |
| Identify risk factors associated with wire syndrome - questionnaire | End : July 2023 | Questionnaire: 20 clinical questions without score |
| Identify risk factors associated with wire syndrome - clinical examination / description clinical signs | End : July 2023 | Intraoral clinical examinations: clinical signs: observations : swallowing and tongue (no score / no mesure : only clinical observations) |
| Identify risk factors associated with wire syndrome - clinical examination / presence/absence clinical signs | End : July 2023 | Intraoral clinical examinations: presence/absence of an incisal guidance (YES / NO), presence/absence of parafunctions signs, (YES / NO) |
| Identify risk factors associated with wire syndrome - clinical examination: overbite / overjet | End : July 2023 | Intraoral clinical examinations: overbite and overjet in milimeters |
