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 This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

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 looks at whether the way your jaw and teeth fit together (called malocclusion) is related to your body posture. Researchers will use a 3D scanner to measure the spine's curves and alignment in people with different types of jaw misalignment. The goal is to better understand how the mouth and body may be connected, which could help dentists and other doctors work together more effectively.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If links are found, this could support a team-based approach to orthodontic care that considers posture.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It cannot prove cause and effect, only associations.
