Comparing early braces options for children with a large overjet
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two early braces treatments for children with a large overjet and a specific bite problem. It looks at which approach works better before moving on to full braces.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 9 and 13 years old at the start of the study.
- The top front teeth must stick out 6 millimeters or more (a large overjet).
- The back teeth (first molars) should be in a Class II position on both sides.
- Your child's lips should not close easily without effort.
- Your child must not have had braces or other orthodontic treatment before.
- Your child should not have a daily thumb-sucking or pacifier habit.

This study compares two types of braces (Twin Block and Carriere Motion) for teens aged 14½–16 who have a Class II overbite. It also looks at how the overbite affects your quality of life and how fixing it might help you feel better.
This trial compares a new 3D-printed twin block brace to a traditional one for children with a large overbite (overjet ≥7 mm). It checks how well germs stick, how smooth the brace is, and how well it works—plus how children feel about it.
This trial compares clear plastic aligners with fixed braces to improve mild overbite (Class II) in adults who have not had orthodontics before. It may help you understand which option works better for your bite and alignment while also checking fit and dental health needs.
This study tests a better way to plan lower jaw advancement surgery for people with a significant overbite (Class II malocclusion). It uses a clinical measurement (overjet) to guide the surgery, aiming for more accurate results.
This trial compares two types of braces (a 3D-printed removable brace and a fixed brace called MARA) to see which works better for correcting a bite problem where the lower jaw is too far back. It is designed for teenagers who are still growing and have a large overbite.
This trial compares two types of braces (aesthetic functional appliances and twin blocks) to fix ‘overbite’ where the lower jaw is too small and the upper teeth stick way out. It’s for kids/teens who are still growing and haven’t had braces before.
