Clinical Trial: Figuring Out the Genetic Mutations That Lead to Lower Jaw Advancement More Than the Upper Jaw

U.S., Aug. 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07749638) titled 'Figuring Out the Genetic Mutations That Lead to Lower Jaw Advancement More Than the Upper Jaw' on July 31.

Brief Summary: Purpose of the Research:

To reveal the genetic cause for the occurrence of Class III malocclusion, or what may be described as a reverse bite (underbite).

Introduction and Detailed Procedures for the Patient (Work Plan):

1. The volunteer will rinse their mouth with chlorhexidine before taking the swab.

2. A saliva sample will be collected from the patient using a syringe, along with a frontal facial photograph and a lateral cephalometric X-ray.

3. DNA / genetic material will be extracted from the sample.

4. ...
