Tracking tooth movement after pulling in upper canine
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial uses 3D imaging to measure bone and root changes when pulling an upper canine that sticks out toward the cheek into its proper position. It may help doctors understand how to treat this condition better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are of Yemeni ethnicity.
- You have one upper canine tooth that is sticking out toward your cheek (not both).
- The canine on the other side is in its normal position and has come in properly.
- You have mild to moderate crowding of your teeth.
- You need braces or other fixed orthodontic treatment.
- You do not have a front-to-back bite problem (such as overbite or underbite).

This trial compares two methods (sliding jigs vs retraction hooks) to move your upper teeth backward using small screws placed in your jawbone. It may help if you have a mild overbite or crowded upper teeth and want to avoid removing teeth.
This trial compares two methods for moving your upper canine teeth back after having upper premolars removed, as part of braces treatment. It aims to find which method works better for people with crowded teeth.
This study compares two ways of retracting the canine teeth after premolar removal to see which works faster or better. It may help us improve orthodontic treatment for people who need their upper canines pulled back.
This study tests two types of orthodontic wires to see which one more effectively moves your upper canine teeth backward when you're already wearing fixed braces. The goal is to find the best method for straightening your bite with minimal side effects.
This study compares two methods used in braces to pull your upper canine teeth (the pointy teeth next to your front teeth) back after premolars are removed. It uses special 3D X-rays to see how these methods affect the roots and the bone around your teeth.
This trial tests whether a new type of attachment (beveled) on clear aligners works better than standard attachments for moving teeth in adults. If you are getting aligner treatment and need certain tooth movements on both sides of your mouth, this study may help improve your results.
