Aim: To evaluate the effect of bone grafting in corticotomy-facilitated orthodontics in adults, using a further modified conventional corticotomy technique.
Methods: Twenty adult orthodontic patients with moderate crowding of the lower anterior teeth were equally divided into two groups and treated with either a modified corticotomy-faciIitated orthodontic tooth movement alone (Group I) or modified corticotomy-facilitated orthodontic tooth movement combined with bone grafting (Group II). Total treatment time was calculated in weeks from the time of activation of the orthodontic appliance immediately following the corticotomy procedure to the time of debracketing.
Aim: To evaluate the effect of corticotomy-facilitated orthodontics (CFO) in adults using a further modified technique versus traditional therapy in orthodontic tooth movement.
Methods: Twenty adult orthodontic patients with moderate crowding of the lower anterior teeth were randomly divided and treated with either a modified technique of corticotomy-facilitated orthodontic tooth movement (Group I) or conventional orthodontic therapy (Group II). Total treatment time was calculated in weeks from the time of activation of the orthodontic appliance immediately following the corticotomy procedure to the time of debracketing.
Regenerative therapy of osseous defects combined with orthodontic tooth movement.
J Int Acad Periodontol
January 2012
Background: Combined orthodontic/regenerative therapy can resolve complex clinical problems and enhance bone formation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of different times of initiating the active orthodontic tooth movement on the regenerative potential of the intrabony defects.
Methods: Fifteen adult patients with at least three intrabony defects and malocclusion were included.
Histological evaluation of osseous defects combined with orthodontic tooth movement.
J Int Acad Periodontol
January 2012
Background: The aim of this study was to histologically evaluate the effectiveness of different times of initiating orthodontic tooth movement on enhancement of bone formation in surgical bony defects.
Methods: In 18 male guinea pigs, 3-4 months of age, a bony defect was created in the alveolar process midway between the central incisor and mandibular 1st molar. These bony defects were implanted with bioactive glass particles and collagen membrane.
