Abstract
Objective: Micro implant anchorage (MIA), as a new orthodontic treatment technique, has the characteristics of simple operation, light trauma, and high stability, and has been widely used in clinical practice. This study compared the therapeutic effects of MIA and the traditional straight wire appliance (SWA) in orthodontic practice.
Methods: Clinical data of 119 patients who underwent orthodontic treatment in Yulin First Hospital from January 2022 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the treatment records, 61 patients received MIA orthodontic treatment (MIA group), and 58 patients received traditional straight wire appliance (SWA) orthodontic treatment (SWA group). Treatment effect, periodontal index, and levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG), interleukin-6 (IL6) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) of the two groups were compared.
Results: The total efficacy of MIA group was significantly higher than that of SWA group (P<0.05). After the treatment, bleeding index (BI), plaque index (PLI), probing depth (PD) and looseness in the MIA group were significantly lower than those in the SWA group (P<0.05). After the treatment, levels of OPG were significantly higher, while IL6 and hsCRP levels were significantly lower in the MIA compared to the SWA group (P<0.05). MIA was associated with significantly lower complication rate compared to the SWA (P<0.05).
Conclusions: Compared with SWA, MIA is associated with better orthodontic effect. This mode of treatment can increase OPG levels, reduce inflammation, and lower the risk of complications.
期刊介绍:
It is a peer reviewed medical journal published regularly since 1984. It was previously known as quarterly "SPECIALIST" till December 31st 1999. It publishes original research articles, review articles, current practices, short communications & case reports. It attracts manuscripts not only from within Pakistan but also from over fifty countries from abroad.
Copies of PJMS are sent to all the import medical libraries all over Pakistan and overseas particularly in South East Asia and Asia Pacific besides WHO EMRO Region countries. Eminent members of the medical profession at home and abroad regularly contribute their write-ups, manuscripts in our publications. We pursue an independent editorial policy, which allows an opportunity to the healthcare professionals to express their views without any fear or favour. That is why many opinion makers among the medical and pharmaceutical profession use this publication to communicate their viewpoint.
