Study Summary

Purpose: This project aims to study the effects of wire dimension and ligation method (bracket type) on the first stage of orthodontic treatment using 3D imaging. Participants: Up to 80 patients at UNC School of Dentistry or Selden Orthodontics between the ages of 10 and 45, inclusive, who have been previously diagnosed with malocclusion requiring orthodontic treatment (braces) and are otherwise healthy. Procedures (methods): Subjects receiving standard of care (SOC) orthodontic treatment will be randomized to one of two commonly used orthodontic archwires (.014" or .016" diameter). Subjects will be further subdivided for analysis based on the type of bracket (twin or self-ligating) that their clinician uses in their treatment. We will review the 3D digital images of each subject's dentition recorded as part of SOC at the 0-, 6- and 12-week visits. We will retrieve the archwires when they are removed per SOC by the clinician at the 12-week time point.
