| Scientific title | Pulp molecular and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) enzymological profiles during orthodontic treatment |
| Study objectives | Enzyme activity will be increased and specific genes will be activated during orthodontic tooth movement. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Research Ethics Committee, Faculty of Dentistry, National University of Malaysia (Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia). Date of approval: 15/06/2007 |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Enzyme activity and gene profile during tooth movement |
| Intervention | 1. Assessment of the orthodontic appliance and evaluation of tooth movement at monthly interval (week 4, 8 and 12). The whole orthodontic treatment will be monitored clinically over 2 years. 2. Characterisation of GCF before and after the placement of orthodontic appliances. GCF samples taken at week 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11 and 12 at the mesial and distal aspect of test (distalised canine) and control teeth (canine teeth that have not been affected by the orthodontic treatment) after premolar teeth have been extracted 3. Pulp tissues characterisation of extracted teeth at 6 weeks. The test tooth will be the upper first premolar that will be extracted after orthodontic treatment. The control tooth will be a lower first premolar that has not been affected by the orthodontic treatment. 4. Characterisation of mRNA from pulp tissues (as in method 3 above) and determination of mRNA quality for microarray hybridisation 5. Microarray analysis of pulp tissues (as in method 3 above) 6. Bioinformatic analysis of potential genes involved during tooth movement |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | Activity of the enzymes and genes involved during orthodontic treatment will be identified. |
| Secondary outcome measures | Potential enzymes and genes for biomarkers will be determined (biomarkers that are involved in tooth movement i.e inflammation, bone formation, bone resorption). |
