What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study compares stainless steel and titanium-molybdenum alloy wires for moving canine teeth in people with braces. Sixteen participants will have one type of wire on each side of their upper jaw to see which works better. The goal is to find out which wire moves teeth more effectively over four months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
stainless steel and titanium-molybdenum alloy wires
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help orthodontists choose the best wire material for faster and more precise tooth movement.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-stage study with only 16 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It compares two materials, not a new treatment.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
