Abstract:

Recently there has been an increase in the search for shorter treatments, which led researchers to study the possibility of speeding up mechanisms for resorption and bone apposition and the variation of chemical mediators capable of stimulating colony formation of osteoclasts and osteoblasts. This lecture aims to describe the current state of science and clinical evidence available at the time to base the procedures described. Biological principles of tooth movement followed by the description of the surgical procedures (e.g. micro-perforations, piezotomy, piezo-puncture, corticotomy and periodontal accelerated osteogenic orthodontics) and its influence on the behavior of cells and biological mediators as well as current status in clinical practice will be described.
