Wilckodontics also known as Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (PAOO) is a technique used to reduce orthodontic treatment time and achieve faster tooth movement as compared with conventional orthodontics. This present case demonstrates the use of piezosurgery to facilitate rapid orthodontic tooth movement in relatively shorter treatment time. The total treatment time required to complete the orthodontic treatment was 13 months for this case.
