Alveolar Microperforation for Inflammation-Enhanced Tooth Movement During Orthodontic Treatment
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Micro-osteoperforation, Anesthestic, and 1 other intervention for Malocclusion. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of the procedure of a minimally invasive alveolar microperforation procedure to achieve accelerated tooth movement in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. "Accelerated tooth movement" means that using the PROPEL™ device may help complete your treatment with braces on one side of your mouth sooner than would be expected if the device were not to be used.
