About

the study aimed to evaluate the effect of different types of Micro-osteoperforation on the rate of distal movement of maxillary first molars as a primary out come. Besides, it was aimed to study secondary effect on the first molars by evaluating root resorption, bone density, and level of the pain during performing the procedures.

Full description

in the study, investigators tried to evaluate two methods to accelerate tooth movement by comparing them with control group. the first method was to apply one-time micro-osteoperforation. the second method was to apply the micro-osteoperforation repeatedly till reaching the end of the phase one treatment.
