Protocol summary

Study aim
To compare the stability of Iranian mini-screw with Korean mini-screw as an orthodontic anchorage
Design
This is a double-blind randomized clinical trial with control group, phase III, in which eligible patients will be randomly assigned through the block randomization to the intervention and control groups
Settings and conduct
This study will be performed in the School of Dentistry in Hamadan city on 76 eligible patients who need orthodontic. The patients will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups through the block randomization. This trial will be double-blinded.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Age 15 to 30 years In need of orthodontic treatment Indications for the use of mini-screws Exclusion criteria: Pregnancy Being a smoker
Intervention groups
Intervention group 1: Inserting the Iranian mini-screw made by Pouyan Teb Co. with a length of 8 mm and a diameter of 1.6 mm perpendicular to the bone using a manual driver in a predetermined place, then applying force immediately after loading the mini-screw with a force equivalent to 100 to 150 grams. Intervention group 2: Inserting the Korean mini-screw JEIL brand with a length of 8 mm and a diameter of 1.6 mm perpendicular to the bone using a manual driver in a predetermined place, then applying force immediately after loading the mini-screw with a force equivalent to 100 to 150 grams.
Main outcome variables
Primary outcome: The degree of stability of Iranian and Korean mini-screws

Sample size

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The patients will be randomly assigned to intervention and control groups using block randomization. For this purpose, we will prepare four sheets of paper, writing on two sheets the name of the intervention and on the other two sheets the name of the control. The paper sheets will be pooled, placed in a container, and randomly drawn one at a time for each patient without replacement until all four sheets are drawn. The four paper sheets will be then placed back into the container, and this action repeated until the sample size is reached.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The shape, length and diameter of the mini-screws will be the same. Therefore, patients will be unaware of the type of intervention. The person who performs the randomization will be different from the person who examines the patients, so the person who examines the patients will not be aware of the intervention. Thus, the trial will be run as double-blind.
