Introduction: Determining the right time for orthodontic treatment is one of the most important factors affecting the treatment plan and its outcome. The aim of this study is to estimate the mandibular growth stage based on cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) in lateral cephalometric radiographs using artificial intelligence. Unlike previous studies, which use conventional CVM stage naming, our proposed method directly correlates cervical vertebrae with mandibular growth slope.

Methods and materials: To conduct this study, first, information of people achieved in American Association of Orthodontics Foundation (AAOF) growth centers was assessed and after considering the entry and exit criteria, a total of 200 people, 108 women and 92 men, were included in the study. Then, the length of the mandible in the lateral cephalometric radiographs that were taken serially from the patients was calculated. The corresponding graphs were labeled based on the growth rate of the mandible in 3 stages; before the growth peak of puberty (pre-pubertal), during the growth peak of puberty (pubertal) and after the growth peak of puberty (post-pubertal). A total of 663 images were selected for evaluation using artificial intelligence. These images were evaluated with different deep learning-based artificial intelligence models considering the diagnostic measures of sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV). We also employed weighted kappa statistics.

Results: In the diagnosis of pre-pubertal stage, the convolutional neural network (CNN) designed for this study has the higher sensitivity and NPV (0.84, 0.91 respectively) compared to ResNet-18 model. The ResNet-18 model had better performance in other diagnostic measures of the pre-pubertal stage and all measures in the pubertal and post-pubertal stages. The highest overall diagnostic accuracy was also obtained using ResNet-18 model with the amount of 87.5% compared to 81% in designed CNN.

Conclusion: The artificial intelligence model trained in this study can receive images of cervical vertebrae and predict mandibular growth status by classifying it into one of three groups; before the growth spurt (pre-pubertal), during the growth spurt (pubertal), and after the growth spurt (post-pubertal). The highest accuracy is in post-pubertal stage with the designed networks.

介绍:确定正确的正畸治疗时间是影响治疗计划及其结果的最重要因素之一。本研究的目的是利用人工智能技术,根据头颅侧位X光片中的颈椎成熟度(CVM)估算下颌生长阶段。与以往使用传统 CVM 阶段命名的研究不同,我们提出的方法直接将颈椎与下颌生长斜率相关联:为了开展这项研究,我们首先评估了在美国正畸协会基金会(AAOF)生长中心取得成绩的人的信息,在考虑了进入和退出标准后,共有 200 人被纳入研究,其中女性 108 人,男性 92 人。然后,计算患者连续拍摄的头颅侧位X光片中下颌骨的长度。根据下颌骨在青春期生长高峰前(青春期前)、青春期生长高峰中(青春期中)和青春期生长高峰后(青春期后)三个阶段的生长速度,对相应的图表进行了标注。共选择了 663 幅图像进行人工智能评估。考虑到敏感性、特异性、准确性、阳性预测值(PPV)和阴性预测值(NPV)等诊断指标,我们使用不同的基于深度学习的人工智能模型对这些图像进行了评估。我们还采用了加权卡帕统计:结果:与 ResNet-18 模型相比,本研究设计的卷积神经网络(CNN)在诊断青春期前期时具有更高的灵敏度和 NPV(分别为 0.84 和 0.91)。ResNet-18 模型在青春期前阶段的其他诊断指标以及青春期和青春期后阶段的所有指标上都有更好的表现。ResNet-18 模型的总体诊断准确率也最高,达到 87.5%,而设计的 CNN 为 81%:本研究中训练的人工智能模型可以接收颈椎图像并预测下颌骨的生长状况,将其分为三组:生长高峰前(青春期前)、生长高峰期(青春期)和生长高峰期后(青春期后)。使用所设计的网络,青春期后阶段的准确率最高。

Introduction: Metallic and elastomeric ligatures are widely used in orthodontics to secure the archwire within the bracket slots, but elastomeric ligatures have traditionally been associated with increased microbial colonization, which could adversely affect periodontal health.

Aim: This systematic review compares the periodontal effects of elastomeric and steel ligatures used for orthodontic fixed appliances.

Methods: Unrestricted literature search of 7 databases (MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Virtual Health Library) up to July 2023 were performed for randomized / non-randomized clinical studies on humans comparing the two ligation methods during fixed-appliance therapy. After duplicate study selection, data extraction, and risk-of-bias assessment with the Risk of Bias (RoB) 2 or the Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies - of Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool, random-effects meta-analyses of Mean Differences (MD) or Standardized Mean Differences (SMD) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were carried out, followed by assessment of certainty of existing evidence with the Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach.

Results: A total of 11 studies (3 randomized / 8 non-randomized) with 354 patients (mean age 14.7 years and 42% male) were included. No statistically significant differences were seen for plaque index (5 studies; SMD = 0.48; 95% CI = -0.03 to 1.00; P = 0.07), gingival index (2 studies; MD = 0.01; 95% CI = -0.14 to 0.16; P = 0.89), probing pocket depth (2 studies; MD = 0; 95% CI = -0.17 to 0.16; P = 0.97), or Streptococcus mutans counts (4 studies; SMD = 0.40; 95% CI=-0.41 to 1.20; P = 0.21). Elastomeric ligatures were associated with moderately increased total bacterial load (3 studies; SMD = 0.43; 95% CI = 0.10 to 0.76; P = 0.03). Confidence in these estimates was low in all instances due to the inclusion of non-randomized studies with high risk of bias.

Conclusions: Existing low quality evidence indicates that ligature method does not seem to influence the periodontal health during fixed treatment, even if elastomeric ligatures are associated with a moderate increase of bacterial load.

导言:目的:本系统综述比较了用于正畸固定矫治器的弹性结扎带和钢制结扎带对牙周的影响:在 7 个数据库(MEDLINE、Scopus、Web of Science、Embase、Cochrane 系统综述数据库、Cochrane 对照试验中央登记册和虚拟健康图书馆)中对截至 2023 年 7 月的随机/非随机人体临床研究进行了检索,比较了固定矫治器治疗过程中的两种结扎方法。在重复选择研究、提取数据并使用偏倚风险(RoB)2 或干预措施非随机研究中的偏倚风险(ROBINS-I)工具进行偏倚风险评估后,对平均差(MD)或标准化平均差(SMD)及其 95% 置信区间(CI)进行随机效应荟萃分析,然后使用推荐、评估、发展和评价分级(GRADE)方法对现有证据的确定性进行评估:共纳入 11 项研究(3 项随机/8 项非随机),354 名患者(平均年龄 14.7 岁,42% 为男性)。斑块指数(5 项研究;SMD = 0.48;95% CI = -0.03 至 1.00;P = 0.07)、牙龈指数(2 项研究;MD = 0.01;95% CI = -0.14 至 0.16; P = 0.89)、探诊袋深度(2 项研究;MD = 0; 95% CI = -0.17 to 0.16; P = 0.97)或变异链球菌计数(4 项研究;SMD = 0.40; 95% CI=-0.41 to 1.20; P = 0.21)。弹性结扎与细菌总数的中度增加有关(3 项研究;SMD = 0.43;95% CI = 0.10 至 0.76;P = 0.03)。由于纳入了偏倚风险较高的非随机研究,这些估计值的可信度都较低:现有的低质量证据表明,结扎方法似乎不会影响固定治疗期间的牙周健康,即使弹性结扎与细菌负荷的适度增加有关:prospero(CRD42023444383)。

Background: External apical root resorption (EARR) is a common undesirable outcome of orthodontic treatment, this study aimed to identify genetic polymorphisms associated with the susceptibility to extreme orthodontic-induced EARR in a Korean population using extreme phenotype analysis sampling.

Methods: Genomic DNA was isolated from the saliva of 77 patients who underwent orthodontic treatment involving two maxillary premolar extractions. The patients were divided into two groups based on EARR values measured on periapical radiographs: The significant resorption group (SG, EARR ≥ 4 mm) and the normal group (NG, EARR < 2 mm). In the NG group, patients with EARR < 1 mm were named the non-resorption group (NonG). Targeted next-generation sequencing was performed using the screened single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and firth logistic regression analysis was used to determine genetic associations with EARR. Haplotype-based association analysis was performed for specific SNPs.

Results: SNPs related to genes TNFSF11, TNFRSF11B, WNT3A, SFRP2, LRP6, P2RX7, and LRP1 were found to be significantly associated with severe EARR (p < 0.05, pre-Bonferroni correction p-values). Additionally, the haplotype CCA of rs17525809, rs208294, and rs1718119 P2RX7 had a higher frequency in the SG group.

Conclusion: Extreme phenotype analysis has identified eleven SNPs related to genes TNFSF11, TNFRSF11B, WNT3A, SFRP2, LRP6, P2RX7, and LRP1 that are associated with severe root resorption in the Korean population. These findings will contribute to the development of predictive diagnostic tools for identifying severe root resorption that may occur during orthodontic treatment.

背景:外根尖吸收(EARR)是正畸治疗中常见的不良后果,本研究旨在利用极端表型分析采样法,在韩国人群中确定与正畸引起的极端EARR易感性相关的基因多态性:从 77 名接受正畸治疗(包括拔除两颗上颌前磨牙)的患者唾液中分离出基因组 DNA。根据根尖周X光片上测量的EARR值将患者分为两组:明显吸收组(SG,EARR ≥ 4 mm)和正常组(NG,EARR 结果≥ 4 mm):发现与基因 TNFSF11、TNFRSF11B、WNT3A、SFRP2、LRP6、P2RX7 和 LRP1 相关的 SNPs 与严重 EARR 显著相关(p 结论:极端表型分析确定了与基因 TNFSF11、TNFRSF11B、WNT3A、SFRP2、LRP6、P2RX7 和 LRP1 相关的 11 个 SNPs,这些 SNPs 与韩国人群中的严重牙根吸收相关。这些发现将有助于开发预测性诊断工具,以识别正畸治疗期间可能发生的严重牙根吸收。

Background: The aim of the present study was to investigate qualitatively and quantitatively the elution of substances from polyester-urethane (Invisalign™) aligners and resin composite attachments (Tetric EvoFlow) in vivo.

Methods: Patients (n = 11) treated with the aligners and attachments (16 per patient, without other composite restorations) for an average of 20 months, who were planned for attachment removed were enrolled in the study. Patients were instructed to rinse with 50 mL of distilled water upon entry and the rinsing solution was collected (before removal). Then, the attachments were removed with low-speed tungsten carbide burs for adhesive residue removal, a thorough water rinsing was performed immediately after the grinding process to discard grinding particle residues, and subsequently, after a second water-rinsing the solution was collected for analysis (after removal). The rinsing solutions were analyzed for targeted (LC-MS/MS: Bis-GMA, DCDMA, UDMA, BPA) and untargeted (LC-HRMS: screening of leached species and their degradation products) compounds.

Results: Targeted analysis revealed a significant reduction in BPA after attachment removal (4 times lower). Bis-GMA, DCDMA, UDMA were below the detection limit before removal but were all detectable after removal with Bis-GMA and UDMA at quantifiable levels. Untargeted analysis reviled the presence of mono-methacrylate transformation products of Bis-GMA (Bis-GMA-M1) and UDMA (UDMA-M1), UDMA without methacrylate moieties (UDMA-M2), and 4-(dimethylamino) benzoic acid (DMAB), the degradation product of the photo-initiator ethyl-4-(dimethylamino) benzoate (EDMAB), all after attachment removal. Several amino acids and endogenous metabolites were also found both before and after removal.

Conclusions: Elevated levels of BPA were traced instantaneously in patients treated with Invisalign™ and flowable resin composite attachments for the testing period. BPA was reduced after attachment removal, but residual monomers and resin degradation products were found after removal. Alternative resin formulations and attachment materials may be utilized to reduce eluents.

背景:本研究旨在对聚酯-聚氨酯(Invisalign™)矫治器和树脂复合附着体(Tetric EvoFlow)在体内的物质洗脱进行定性和定量研究:参加研究的患者(n = 11)平均接受了 20 个月的矫正器和附着体治疗(每位患者 16 个,无其他复合修复体),并计划去除附着体。患者在入院时被告知用 50 毫升蒸馏水冲洗,并收集冲洗液(在摘除前)。然后,使用低速碳化钨车针去除粘合剂残留物,磨削过程结束后立即进行彻底的水冲洗以丢弃磨削颗粒残留物,随后,在第二次水冲洗后收集溶液进行分析(去除后)。对漂洗溶液进行了目标化合物(LC-MS/MS:Bis-GMA、DCDMA、UDMA、BPA)和非目标化合物(LC-HRMS:筛选浸出物及其降解产物)分析:结果:靶向分析表明,去除附着物后,双酚 A 的含量明显降低(低 4 倍)。双-GMA、DCDMA 和 UDMA 在去除前低于检测限,但在去除后都能检测到,其中双-GMA 和 UDMA 达到了可量化的水平。非目标分析显示,在去除附着物后,还存在双-GMA(Bis-GMA-M1)和 UDMA(UDMA-M1)的单甲基丙烯酸酯转化产物、不含甲基丙烯酸酯的 UDMA(UDMA-M2)以及光引发剂乙基-4-(二甲基氨基)苯甲酸(EDMAB)的降解产物 4-(二甲基氨基)苯甲酸(DMAB)。在去除附着物前后,还发现了几种氨基酸和内源性代谢物:在使用隐适美™和可流动树脂复合附着体进行治疗的患者中,检测到双酚 A 含量瞬间升高。去除附着物后,双酚 A 的含量有所降低,但去除后仍可发现残留的单体和树脂降解产物。可以使用其他树脂配方和附件材料来减少洗脱物。

Background: Skeletal anterior open bite (SAOB) represents one of the most complex and challenging malocclusions in orthodontics. Orthodontic treatment supported by miniplates enable to reduce the need for orthognathic surgery. Transverse dimension may be affected by intrusion biomechanics. This study aims to assess transverse bone alterations in patients with SAOB who underwent orthodontic treatment with absolute anchorage using four miniplates.

Methods: A total of 32 patients of both sexes, with an average age of 33.8 years, diagnosed with SAOB and treated orthodontically with four miniplates (one in each hemiarch), were selected for this study. Tomographic examinations were performed before (T1) and after (T2) orthodontic treatment. Linear measurements (width of the maxillary base, maxillary alveolar, maxillary root, maxillary dental cusp, mandibular alveolar) and angular measurements (maxillary intermolar angle) were assessed in these images. The Shapiro-Wilks normality tests were applied to verify data distribution, and the paired t-test was used to compare the initial and final measures obtained.

Results: Among the evaluated parameters, the maxillary alveolar width, maxillary dental cusp width, mandibular alveolar cusp width, and intermolar angle showed statistically significant differences between T1 and T2 (p < 0.05). However, maxillary base and maxillary root widths showed no significant difference (p > 0.05).

Conclusions: Intrusion and distalization with miniplates in SAOB therapy may lead to significant expansive changes, due to molars cusps width and buccal inclination increase restricted at the alveolar level.

背景:骨骼前方开放性咬合(SAOB)是正畸学中最复杂、最具挑战性的错颌畸形之一。微型托槽支持的正畸治疗可以减少正颌外科手术的需要。横向尺寸可能会受到入侵生物力学的影响。本研究旨在评估使用四个微型托槽进行绝对固定正畸治疗的 SAOB 患者的横向骨改变情况:本研究共选取了 32 名患者,男女均有,平均年龄 33.8 岁,均被诊断为 SAOB,并接受了四个微型托槽(每个半弓一个)的正畸治疗。在正畸治疗前(T1)和治疗后(T2)分别进行了断层扫描检查。在这些图像中评估了线性测量值(上颌基底宽度、上颌牙槽宽度、上颌牙根宽度、上颌牙尖宽度、下颌牙槽宽度)和角度测量值(上颌磨间角)。采用 Shapiro-Wilks 正态性检验来验证数据分布,并用配对 t 检验来比较初始和最终测量结果:在评估的参数中,上颌牙槽宽度、上颌牙尖宽度、下颌牙槽尖宽度和磨间角在 T1 和 T2 之间存在显著的统计学差异(P 0.05):结论:在SAOB治疗中使用迷你板进行内收和远端化可能会导致明显的扩张性改变,这是因为臼齿尖牙宽度和颊倾角的增加在牙槽水平受到了限制。

Backgrounds and objectives: The present study was designed to define a novel algorithm capable of predicting female adolescents' cervical vertebrae maturation stage with high recall and accuracy.

Methods: A total of 560 female cephalograms were collected, and cephalograms with unclear vertebral shapes and deformed scales were removed. 480 films from female adolescents (mean age: 11.5 years; age range: 6-19 years) were used for the model development phase, and 80 subjects were randomly and stratified allocated to the validation cohort to further assess the model's performance. Derived significant predictive parameters from 15 anatomic points and 25 quantitative parameters of the second to fourth cervical vertebrae (C2-C4) to establish the ordinary logistic regression model. Evaluation metrics including precision, recall, and F1 score are employed to assess the efficacy of the models in each identified cervical vertebrae maturation stage (iCS). In cases of confusion and mispredictions, the model underwent modification to improve consistency.

Results: Four significant parameters, including chronological age, the ratio of D3 to AH3 (D3:AH3), anterosuperior angle of C4 (@4), and distance between C3lp and C4up (C3lp-C4up) were administered into the ordinary regression model. The primary predicting model that implements the novel algorithm was built and the performance evaluation with all stages of 93.96% for accuracy, 93.98% for precision, 93.98% for recall, and 93.95% for F1-score were obtained. Despite the hybrid logistic-based model achieving high accuracy, the unsatisfactory performance of stage estimation was noticed for iCS3 in the primary cohort (89.17%) and validation cohort (85.00%). Through bivariate logistic regression analysis, the posterior height of C4 (PH4) was further selected in the iCS3 to establish a corrected model, thus the evaluation metrics were upgraded to 95.83% and 90.00%, respectively.

Conclusions: An unbiased and objective assessment of the cervical vertebrae maturation (CVM) method can function as a decision-support tool, assisting in the evaluation of the optimal timing for treatment in growing adults. Our novel proposed logistic model yielded individual formulas for each specific CVM stage and attained exceptional performance, indicating the capability to function as a benchmark for maturity evaluation in clinical craniofacial orthopedics for Chinese female adolescents.

背景和目的:本研究旨在确定一种新型算法,该算法能够以较高的回忆率和准确率预测女性青少年的颈椎成熟阶段:方法:共收集了 560 张女性头颅照片,剔除了椎体形状不清晰和刻度变形的头颅照片。模型开发阶段使用了 480 张来自女性青少年(平均年龄:11.5 岁;年龄范围:6-19 岁)的照片,并将 80 名受试者随机分层分配到验证队列中,以进一步评估模型的性能。从第二至第四颈椎(C2-C4)的 15 个解剖点和 25 个定量参数中提取重要的预测参数,建立普通逻辑回归模型。采用包括精确度、召回率和 F1 分数在内的评价指标来评估模型在每个已确定的颈椎成熟阶段(iCS)中的功效。在出现混淆和预测错误的情况下,对模型进行修改以提高一致性:结果:在普通回归模型中加入了四个重要参数,包括实际年龄、D3与AH3的比率(D3:AH3)、C4的前上角(@4)以及C3lp与C4up之间的距离(C3lp-C4up)。建立了采用新算法的主要预测模型,并获得了准确率为 93.96%、精确率为 93.98%、召回率为 93.98%、F1 分数为 93.95%的各阶段性能评估。尽管基于混合逻辑的模型获得了较高的准确率,但 iCS3 在初选队列(89.17%)和验证队列(85.00%)中的阶段估计表现并不令人满意。通过双变量逻辑回归分析,在 iCS3 中进一步选择了 C4 后高度(PH4)来建立修正模型,因此评价指标分别提升至 95.83% 和 90.00%:对颈椎成熟度(CVM)的无偏见客观评估方法可作为决策支持工具,帮助评估生长期成年人的最佳治疗时机。我们提出的新逻辑模型为每个特定的颈椎成熟阶段提供了单独的公式,并取得了优异的成绩,表明该模型能够作为中国女性青少年颅面矫形临床成熟度评估的基准。

Background: Low-intensity electrical stimulation (LIES) is considered a relatively recent technology that has received little attention in orthodontics as a method of acceleration. This study aimed to evaluate patient-reported outcome measures when LIES is used to accelerate the en-masse retraction of the upper anterior teeth.

Materials and methods: The sample consisted of 40 patients (8 males, 32 females; mean age 21.1 ± 2.3 years), with Class II division I malocclusion who required extraction of the first premolars to retract upper anterior teeth. They were randomly assigned to the LIES group (n = 20) and the conventional en-masse retraction group (CER; n = 20). Patient responses regarding pain, discomfort, burning sensation, swelling, chewing difficulty, speech difficulty, and painkillers' consumption were recorded at these nine assessment times: 24 h (T1), 3 days (T2), and 7 days (T3) after force application, then in the second month after 24 h (T4), 3 days (T5), and 7 days (T6) of force re-activation, and finally after 24 h (T7), 3 days (T8), and 7 days (T9) of force re-activation in the third month.

Results: The mean values of pain perception were smaller in the LIES group than those in the CER group at all assessment times with no statistically significant differences between the two groups except during the second and third months (T5, T6, T8, and T9; P < 0.005). However, discomfort mean values were greater in the LIES group with significant differences compared to CER group during the first week of the follow-up only (T1, T2, and T3; P < 0.005). Burning sensation levels were very mild in the LIES group, with significant differences between the two groups at T1 and T2 only (P < 0.001). Speech difficulty was significantly greater in the LIES group compared to CER group at all studied times (P < 0.001). High levels of satisfaction and acceptance were reported in both groups, without any significant difference.

Conclusion: Both the LIES-based acceleration of en-masse retraction of upper anterior teeth and the conventional retraction were accompanied by mild to moderate pain, discomfort, and chewing difficulty on the first day of retraction. These sensations gradually decreased and almost disappeared over a week after force application or re-activation.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate orthodontists' utilization and perceptions of tele-orthodontics.

Materials and methods: A 30-item online survey was distributed to members of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO). The questionnaire encompassed topics concerning the orthodontists' utilization, perceptions, clinical applications, limitations, and concerns regarding tele-orthodontics. Descriptive statistics were employed, and comparisons between responses from users and non-users were conducted  using Wilcoxon rank-sum tests and Fisher's exact tests.

Results: 152 members completed the survey, (response rate: 2.4%). More than two third of respondents (69.74%) were users of tele-orthodontics. Users were more aligned with the belief that tele-orthodontics facilitates effective communication (mean ± standard deviation (SD) 4.06 ± 0.83 vs. 3.33 ± 0.94, p < 0.001). Both groups agreed on the requirement of patient fees for tele-orthodontic visits (mean ± SD: 3.62 ± 1.11 users vs. 3.74 ± 1.02 non-users, p = 0.659), and on the capability  of the system to reduce unwarranted referrals (p = 0.20). The majority of participants acknowledged  the utility of the system in monitoring aligners' patients (89% in users vs. 61% in non-users, p < 0.001). Non-users expressed greater concerns regarding privacy risks (mean ± SD: 3.06 ± 0.97 users vs. 3.57 ± 0.86 non-users, p = 0.002). Both groups stressed the significance of obtaining informed consent before utilizing tele-orthodontics.

Conclusions: The widespread acceptance of tele-orthodontics among AAO members was apparent, as demonstrated by their recognition of its effectiveness. There was notable variation in how users and non-users perceived tele-orthodontics. The study's results offer valuable insights into both the potential benefits and drawbacks of incorporating this technology into clinical practice from the clincians' perspective.

研究目的本研究旨在调查正畸医生对远程正畸的使用情况和看法:向美国口腔正畸医师协会(AAO)成员发放了一份包含 30 个项目的在线调查问卷。问卷内容包括正畸医生对远程正畸的使用情况、看法、临床应用、局限性和担忧。调查采用了描述性统计方法,并使用 Wilcoxon 秩和检验和费雪精确检验对用户和非用户的回答进行了比较:152 名成员完成了调查(回复率:2.4%)。超过三分之二的受访者(69.74%)是远程正畸的使用者。用户更认同远程正畸有助于有效沟通的观点(平均值±标准差(SD)为 4.06±0.83 vs. 3.33±0.94, p 结论:远程正畸被广泛接受的原因是,远程正畸可以帮助牙科医师与患者进行有效的沟通:AAO成员对远程正畸的广泛接受是显而易见的,他们对其有效性的认可也证明了这一点。用户和非用户对远程正畸的看法存在明显差异。研究结果提供了宝贵的见解,从医生的角度说明了将该技术纳入临床实践的潜在好处和缺点。

This study aims to compare the impact of pain on quality of life and patient satisfaction during treatment with aligners. Ninety-four subjects in active treatment were invited to answer self-reported questions concerning pain severity and duration, occurrence of other signs and symptoms, and level of satisfaction with their treatment. Also, the OHIP-14 questionnaire was applied to assess patients’ OHRQoL. Ninety-four patients (49 women and 45 men) answered the survey. Pain duration of 1–3 days was reported by 69.1% of patients (n = 60). For those who reported pain (n = 84), it was considered mild severity by 42.9% and moderate by 52.4%. Almost sixty-four percent of the sample were very satisfied with the aligner’s aesthetics (n = 60) and forty-nine percent were satisfied with treatment in general (n = 46). Mean OHIP-14 score was 3.36 ± 2.54. OHRQoL was significantly associated with pain severity, whereas patients who reported having experienced moderate pain presented a significantly higher mean OHIP-14 score than those who reported having experienced mild pain (3.92 ± 1.93 and 2.69 ± 2.83, respectively; p = 0.036). The “psychological discomfort” OHIP-14’s domain was the most influenced by the level of pain. Pain severity significantly influenced OHRQoL, in adult patients under treatment with clear aligners. However, high levels of patient satisfaction were reported, regardless of pain duration or severity.
本研究旨在比较矫治器治疗期间疼痛对生活质量和患者满意度的影响。研究邀请了94名正在接受治疗的受试者回答有关疼痛的严重程度和持续时间、其他体征和症状的出现以及对治疗的满意程度等自我报告问题。此外,还采用了 OHIP-14 问卷来评估患者的 OHRQoL。94 名患者(49 名女性和 45 名男性)回答了调查问卷。69.1%的患者(n = 60)报告疼痛持续时间为1-3天。在报告疼痛的患者中(n = 84),42.9% 的患者认为疼痛为轻度,52.4% 的患者认为疼痛为中度。近64%的样本对矫治器的美观度非常满意(60人),49%的样本对总体治疗满意(46人)。OHIP-14平均分为3.36±2.54分。OHRQoL与疼痛严重程度有明显相关性,报告经历过中度疼痛的患者的OHIP-14平均得分明显高于报告经历过轻度疼痛的患者(分别为3.92 ± 1.93和2.69 ± 2.83;P = 0.036)。心理不适 "OHIP-14 领域受疼痛程度的影响最大。在接受透明矫治器治疗的成年患者中,疼痛严重程度对OHRQoL的影响很大。然而,无论疼痛持续时间或严重程度如何,患者的满意度都很高。
