Aims: Extended orthodontic treatment leads to a number of negative outcomes, including a higher chance of dental cavities, gingival recession, open gingival embrasure gaps, and root resorption.

Effect of Two Different Penetration Depths of Micro-osteoperforation on the Rate of Orthodontic Tooth Movement: A Prospective Clinical Study [PDF]
Objective: The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of two different penetration depths of micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement over 60 days.

Effect of micro-osteoperforations on external apical root resorption: A randomized controlled trial. [PDF]
This study aimed to investigate the effect of micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on external apical root resorption (EARR) during the initial orthodontic alignment phase of maxillary anterior crowding.Thirty patients (25 females, 5 males; mean age, 22.66 ± 3.27 years) who presented with moderate crowding of the upper labial segment and underwent extraction-

Comparison of the effects of horizontal and vertical micro-osteoperforations on the biological response and tooth movement in rabbits. [PDF]
This study aimed to compare the amount of tooth movement after multiple horizontal (MH) and single vertical (SV) micro-osteoperforations (MOPs), and evaluate the histological changes after orthodontic force application in rabbits.The mandibles of 24 white rabbits were subjected to two experimental interventions: MH and SV MOPs.

Acceleration Techniques for Teeth Movements in Extractive Orthodontic Therapy
For a world that is constantly trying to speed up every procedure while obtaining the maximum result, traditional orthodontics have the biological limitation of using light and constant forces that allow tooth movement in a time frame that is only ...

Ability of mini-implant-facilitated micro-osteoperforations to accelerate tooth movement in rats. [PDF]
Although current techniques for accelerated tooth movement often involve invasive surgical procedures, micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) using mini-implants may facilitate orthodontic tooth movement without raising flaps, reduce surgical risks, and increase patient acceptance.
