Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the pattern of root resorption rate / speed of primary teeth, through the comparison of panoramic radiographs (baseline and after 1 year of treatment), from the measure of root resorption (quantitative) and scores (qualitative) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate the influence of root resorption of primary teeth on the formation/eruption of sucessor permanent, through the comparison of panoramic radiographs (baseline and after 1 year of treatment), assessing root formation of permament teeth (Nolla stage) and measuring the distance from the cusp tip to the occlusal plan. | — |
