Development and Validation of an Extraoral Condyle Locating Device and Its Effect on Low-Level Laser Therapy in Patients With Skeletal Class II Malocclusion: Protocol for a 2-Phase Randomized Controlled Trial.
A newly developed spectacle-mounted device for locating the mandibular condyle is being tested for accuracy, then evaluated alongside low-level laser therapy in children with skeletal class II malocclusion receiving myofunctional appliance treatment. Phase 1 validation is underway; phase 2 will compare laser therapy guided by the device versus conventional unguided treatment.
