Orthodontic Clear Aligners Vs Conventional Fixed Appliance's Impact on Muscular Activities Among Adults Using SEMG (Surface Electromyography)
Sponsor: Riyadh Elm University
Summary
This clinical trial goal is to evaluate the difference in masticatory activities in adult patients treated with clear aligners compared to conventional fixed appliances treatment. The aim of this study is to measure the changes of the activity of the anterior temporalis and masseter muscles in different treatment modality. The activity of the muscles will be evaluated and measured using the surface electromyography (sEMG) BioRadio device before and after the beginning of each treatment modality.
