Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Micro-osteoperforations (MOPs)  Total of 6 MOPs, placed in two rows of four MOPs each, 3 mm apart, first row of three MOPs placed 2 mm distal to canine root and starting from 4 mm below the alveolar crest, while second row placed at 4 mm from distal root of canine. 
Comparator Agent  No intervention.  NIL 
 
Inclusion Criteria  
Age From  12.00 Year(s)
Age To  32.00 Year(s)
Gender  Both 
Details  1. Patients undergoing fixed mechanotherapy with upper first premolar extractions requiring 5 mm or more of maxillary canine retraction.
2. Presence of full complement of teeth except third molars.
3. Fair oral hygiene.
 
 
ExclusionCriteria 
Details  Patients presenting with:
1. Previous history of orthodontic treatment.
2. Medical or systemic problems.
3. Active caries, pulpitis or periodontal disease.
4. Severe crowding (≥6mm) or severe cant of the maxillary skeletal base or palatal plane (inclination angle ≤ 80 and ≥ 95 degrees and base plane angle ≤20 and ≥40 degrees) simultaneously existing with severely divergent or convergent facial planes (Bjork sum <385 and >400).
5. Patients exhibiting microdontia or less than 5 mm of space available for canine retraction.
 
 
Method of Generating Random Sequence   Computer generated randomization 
Method of Concealment   Sequentially numbered, sealed, opaque envelopes 
Blinding/Masking   Outcome Assessor Blinded 
Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Mean rate of canine retraction per month, until 2 mm or less space is present distal to canine. Measured intraorally using a digital calipers. Measured as: residual extraction space between lateral incisor (disto-gingival wing of the bracket) and canine (mesio-gingival wing of the bracket); in mm; then expressed as [(space T0-space T1)/time T0-to-T1] in mm/month. Measured by: a calibrated person, fully blinded to experimental/control side (an orthodontist).   Measurement timing: at baseline (before space closure), at 1-month intervals; end at space closure finalization (2 mm or less space remaining distal to the canine). 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
•Cumulative canine distal movement measured in mm, on pre and post dental casts.
• Canine and molar rotation, tip, root resorption,bone density in HU, and alveolar bone loss to be measured on CBCT scans.
• Any scars from MOPs, tooth discoloration, devitalisation or gingiva invagination will be noted.
Discomfort level on VAS scale. 
At T0 and Tfinal, except,
discomfort level which will be measured daily after the intervention for a week.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   This study is an in vivo, interventional, surgical, single-center, split-mouth randomized, controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficiency of micro-osteoperforations in enhancing the rate of canine retraction and its effects on various dental and bony structures.
The primary outcome measure will be the mean rate of canine retraction per month, which will be measured intraorally.
The hypotheses are:
1. There is no difference in the rate of micro-osteoperforation assisted and conventional canine retraction.
2. There is no difference in the amount of anchorage loss, cumulative canine displacement, root resorption, alveolar bone loss, bone density and discomfort level between micro-osteoperforation and conventional canine retraction.
