Quantification and comparison of the regional acceleratory phenomenon in bone following piezosurgery or bur osteotomy: A pilot study in rats [PDF]
Background/Objective The Regional Acceleratory Phenomenon (RAP) can be induced surgically via decortication (selective cortical penetrations) of bone to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement.

Accelerated orthodontic tooth movement: surgical techniques and the regional acceleratory phenomenon [PDF]
Background Techniques to accelerate tooth movement have been a topic of interest in orthodontics over the past decade. As orthodontic treatment time is linked to potential detrimental effects, such as increased decalcification, dental caries, root ...

Total Maxillofacial Trauma Management: harnessing the regional acceleratory phenomenon for a paradigm shift in simultaneous fracture and implant healing [PDF]
Background: Maxillofacial trauma presents with a myriad of complications, including functional disability and aesthetic compromise. Optimal treatment includes management of bone and soft tissue injuries along with dental rehabilitation. Prompt management, including open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) combined with immediate dental implant ...

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Corticotomy and Piezocision on Canine Retraction: A Systematic Review [PDF]
Background: In order to reduce the prolonged duration of orthodontic treatment, several surgical techniques have been proposed over the years. Corticotomy and piezocision are the two most widely used techniques, and, given the lack of consensus in the ...

Regional osteopenia or regional acceleratory phenomenon: What have we missed at MRI?
DEAR EDITOR, Regional osteopenia is a non-specific bone change during which bone remodeling is focally and transiently stimulated in response to immobilization or insult. Patchy or linear bone resorption in the subcortical and physeal areas can be seen on computed tomography (CT) [...].

The Role of Collagen Membrane as a Scaffold of Etchant for Regional Acceleratory Phenomenon [PDF]
Purpose: The goal of this research is to find the role of collagen membrane, which can reduce physical damage, as a scaffold for possible alternative to the corticotomy which causes Regional Acceleratory Phenomenon (RAP). Materials and Methods: The experiments were carried out on 12 New Zealand white rabbits, approximately 3.5 ㎏ in bodyweight.

Abstract The rate of remodeling in the region of a bone defect exceeds normal tissue activity. It was Frost who described this reaction as a regional acceleratory phenomenon (RAP). We investigated the local healing process with rats with a burr hole defect (1.2 mm in diameter) in the left tibia. We differentiated an initial phase of bone
