Anomalies of tooth position

Interventions

30 patients with mild malocclusion will be divided into two groups of 15, with one group receiving the technique of direct bonding (CD) in two quadrants and the indirect one with flow resin (CIF) in t
perception of time and comfort by patients in both phases and preference for the bonding technique and the drill used in removal through questionnaires
evaluation of the amount of resin remaining after take-off
periodontal probing exams, visible plaque index and gingival bleeding index with a North Carolina millimeter probe
evaluation of the orbicularis oris muscles using an electromyograph
the color of the teeth will be measured with a spectrophotometer before installing the appliance and after removing it. The patients malocclusion will be treated throughout the study.

Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 30 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Eighteen to thirty years old patients, of both sexes, with normal general health conditions and complete permanent dentition except third molars, with normal anatomy, will be admitted to the research. There should be mild malocclusion characterized by an Angle class I molar relationship, with no skeletal and dental changes in the vertical direction, transverse or antero-posterior. The patient may have mild crowding or few diastemas.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with routine use of analgesic, anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxants or anxiolytic drugs, and patients with temporomandibular disorders will be excluded. In addition, patients with anomalous teeth or with large restorations that hinder the visualization of their normal anatomy or a proper bonding. Patients who used antibiotics in the 3 months before the start of the research will also be excluded.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find more advantages in indirect bonding than in direct bonding, both in bonding and in taking off, with more clinical speed and perception of less time and more comfort by patients, verified by means of a stopwatch and questionnaire.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Periodontal evaluation revealing less plaque accumulation around the brackets and on the gingival margin in the indirect bonding technique revealing more periodontal and dental health. Verification by periodontal indexes and periodontal probing.;Muscular assessment of the upper and lower lips revealing rapid muscle adaptation to the presence of brackets regardless of the bonding technique, verified by means of the electromyograph.;Assessment of tooth color before and after bonding the brackets, showing that there is no change after orthodontic treatment regardless of the technique, verified by the spectrophotometer.
