No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of a minimally invasive alveolar microperforation procedure to achieve accelerated tooth movement in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment for orthognathic surgery. "Accelerated tooth movement" means that Microperforation technique may help complete orthodontic treatment sooner than would be expected in conventional orthodontic treatment

Conditions

  • Malocclusion

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Micro-osteoperforation

Flapless cortical perforations will be made 8 months minimum after dental extraction. Surgical protocol will be flapless to preserve periodontal health. After local anesthesia, 3 micro osteoperforations will be done with manual instrument, between apex to the contour of free gum between the canine and second pre-molar. Perforations near each tooth will have 6-8 mm depth
