Filter by:This study was conducted to compare the rate of second molar protraction, level of Interleukin1-β in gingival crevicular fluid, periodontal health (gingival index, plaque index, and periodontal pocket depth) and perception of pain in patients treated by molar protraction with piezocision vs control (no piezocision).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that a piezotome-corticision procedure will have a transient acceleratory effect on the rate of tooth alignment and the overall treatment time. In addition, the subjects in the piezotome-corticision orthodontics group will experience a different level of pain, comfort, and satisfaction as opposed to the conventional orthodontics group.
