Three-dimensional imaging control of osteogenesis induced by minimally invasive corticotomies: Perspectives from a case report.

Corticotomies are now an integral part of the orthodontist's therapeutic arsenal in adult orthodontics. In recent years, the number of publications about different surgical techniques has increased significantly. This shows that practitioners and patients have a common interest.

Corticotomies have made it possible to partly meet this need by facilitating dental movement in adult orthodontic care. Many surgical corticotomy techniques were proposed in the past presenting advantages but also a certain number of disadvantages.
