“…The objective of this trial was to evaluate the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) associated with the use of low-intensity electrical stimulation to accelerate the upper anterior teeth retraction in comparison with the conventional method. The success of orthodontic treatment depends on the use of techniques and devices that keep patients’ discomfort and pain as minimal as possible, since pain is one of the common problems that may affect patient cooperation and may lead to unfavorable treatment outcomes [ 39 ].…”

“…The objective of this trial was to evaluate the patientreported outcome measures (PROMS) associated with the use of low-intensity electrical stimulation to accelerate the upper anterior teeth retraction in comparison with the conventional method. The success of orthodontic treatment depends on the use of techniques and devices that keep patients' discomfort and pain as minimal as possible, since pain is one of the common problems that may affect patient cooperation and may lead to unfavorable treatment outcomes [39]. The mini-implant-assisted en-masse retraction technique was chosen in the current trial because it has been shown that better results can be achieved in this technique compared to the two-stage retraction technique with a TPA anchorage in terms of retraction velocity, dental changes, anchorage loss, and aesthetic treatment outcomes [40,41].…”

Background Low-intensity electrical stimulation (LIES) is considered a relatively recent technology that has received little attention in orthodontics as a method of acceleration. This study aimed to evaluate patient-reported outcome measures when LIES is used to accelerate the en-masse retraction of the upper anterior teeth. Materials and methods The sample consisted of 40 patients (8 males, 32 females; mean age 21.1 ± 2.3 years), with Class II division I malocclusion who required extraction of the first premolars to retract upper anterior teeth. They were randomly assigned to the LIES group (n = 20) and the conventional en-masse retraction group (CER; n = 20). Patient responses regarding pain, discomfort, burning sensation, swelling, chewing difficulty, speech difficulty, and painkillers’ consumption were recorded at these nine assessment times: 24 h (T1), 3 days (T2), and 7 days (T3) after force application, then in the second month after 24 h (T4), 3 days (T5), and 7 days (T6) of force re-activation, and finally after 24 h (T7), 3 days (T8), and 7 days (T9) of force re-activation in the third month. Results The mean values of pain perception were smaller in the LIES group than those in the CER group at all assessment times with no statistically significant differences between the two groups except during the second and third months (T5, T6, T8, and T9; P < 0.005). However, discomfort mean values were greater in the LIES group with significant differences compared to CER group during the first week of the follow-up only (T1, T2, and T3; P < 0.005). Burning sensation levels were very mild in the LIES group, with significant differences between the two groups at T1 and T2 only (P < 0.001). Speech difficulty was significantly greater in the LIES group compared to CER group at all studied times (P < 0.001). High levels of satisfaction and acceptance were reported in both groups, without any significant difference. Conclusion Both the LIES-based acceleration of en-masse retraction of upper anterior teeth and the conventional retraction were accompanied by mild to moderate pain, discomfort, and chewing difficulty on the first day of retraction. These sensations gradually decreased and almost disappeared over a week after force application or re-activation. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05920525.

“…This method has been shown to have high intersubject repeatability, and respondents on VAS questionnaires are able to repeat measures of subjective experiences reliably. If used correctly, VAS is a reliable, valid and sensitive self‐report measure for studying subjective patient experiences . A clear explanation of how to answer the VAS questions correctly was placed at the top of the questionnaire that was used in the present study because some people find converting a subjective sensation to a perception on a straight line to be difficult .…”

Backgrounds The aim of this longitudinal clinical study is to analyse and compare according to location, degree and type, the pain presented by patients during their first year of treatment, as well as the quality of oral life after the placement of two types of orthodontic appliances: conventional brackets and removable Invisalign ® aligners. Methods The sample consisted of 140 patients grouped into 2 study groups of 70 patients each. The first group (brackets group- BG), with fixed multibracket appliances, using the MBT technique and a 0.022” slot. The second group (invisaling group- IG), in treatment with removable aligners (IG), using the Invisalign ® system. They were providen with a questionnare where they had to record the degree (mild, moderate or intense), the type and location of the pain monthly during the first year of treatment. The second form was the Spanish version of the OHIP-14, oral quality of life questionnaire, which was provided the twelfth month after the start of treatment. Results In both groups, we found that the most frequent location of pain occurred during the first phase: mandibular for the IG group and maxillary in the BG group. Throughout the whole analysis, the intensity was mild-moderate with lower values in the conventional brackets’ group. The BG group reported acute pain while the IG group reported sensitive pain during the first month; later both reported sensitive pain. Conclusions There are differences in terms of periodontal pain in its degree, location, and type according to the different orthodontic techniques used. Trial registration The study was approved by the bioethics committee of the University of Salamanca (USAL_20/516).
