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 ...

Regional Acceleratory Phenomenon after Orthodontic Force Exertion in Ovariectomized Rats [PDF]
The application of orthodontic forces may be one of the factors that produce a regional acceleratory phenomenon (RAP) in mandibular and maxillary bones. The effect of exerted forces on bone tissue ahead of their point of application has not been extensively studied.

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) [...].

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

The effect of single versus multiple piezocisions on the rate of canine retraction: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background Piezocision is a minimally invasive surgical method aiming to accelerate tooth movement. However, its effect was found to be transient, appertaining to the regional acceleratory phenomenon (RAP). Hence, the aim of the study was to evaluate the
