Effect of Systemic Administration of Vitamin D on the Rate of Orthodontic Tooth Movement - A Randomized Control Trial
NCT ID: NCT05202496 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 24 Completion: 2021-12-31
Conditions
Angle Class I
Interventions
Calcitriol 0.25Mcg Cap, orthodontic treatment
Summary
This study is to evaluate the effect of vitamin D on the rate of tooth movement by measuring and comparing the extraction space closure during retraction in experimental (vitamin D supplemented) and control groups with a sample size of 24 and having serum vitamin D level (30-40 ng/ml). All subjects undergo orthodontic levelling and alignment after premolar extractions followed by vitamin D supplementation in the experimental group. The rate of canine retraction will be measured in both the groups and CBCT taken in the interval of 6 months before and after intervention to measure root changes
Primary Outcome
Measurement of rate of canine retraction
