Abstract

The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the dental, skeletal, and soft tissue effects of AdvanSync2 with those of PowerScope. Methodology: A total of 20 cases were selected, and they were divided into 2 groups, Group 1- cases treated with PowerScope and Group 2- cases treated with AdvanSync2. The treatment procedure for both groups entailed the use of fixed orthodontic treatment. Both the devices were gradually activated to attain desirable results. Once the sagittal discrepancy was excessively rectified, any additional activation was discontinued. Pre-treatment and post-treatment lateral cephalograms were obtained. Lateral cephalograms were traced and measured for skeletal, dental and soft tissue parameters. The comparison between the groups was done using Independent t test and Paired t test. Results: Both devices showed similar treatment changes. AdvanSync2 provides a greater mandibular advancement when compared to PowerScope, due to its prompt installation during the initial bonding phase. PowerScope exhibited superior restraining effects on the maxilla compared to AdvanSync2. Similar dental effects were also seen in both appliances, PowerScope had a greater amount of proclination when compared to AdvanSync2. Conclusion: Both devices engendered noteworthy treatment changes, thereby culminating in an enhancement of the facial profiles in the patients. Both appliances give good skeletal and dental results, clinicians can opt for any of the two appliances in treatment planning taking patient factors and other treatment factors into consideration
