No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the release of endocrine disrupting monomers from clear aligners as a result of exposure to intraoral factors by measuring their concentration in saliva and to evaluate their reliability of use in terms of general health by comparing them with the fixed orthodontic treatment group. It is also aimed to compare the groups in terms of treatment effectiveness and efficiency.

Conditions

  • Endocrine Disruptors

Interventions

DEVICE

Clear aligner treatment

Clear aligners are appliances that allow the teeth to be gradually moved to the desired final position, as planned in the computer program, in a way that each aligner will perform a part of the total movement with its use.

DEVICE

Fixed Orthodontic Appliance Treatment

Fixed orthodontic treatment is a type of orthodontic treatment performed by applying brackets and wires to the teeth and is considered the gold standard for orthodontic treatments.
