Background The latest trend in scientific literature review is to scrutinise the practices of false or biased reporting of findings, which is rightly termed as ‘spin’. In recent years, accelerated tooth movement has gained attention from the orthodontic community, but the findings still remain unclear and controversial. Objectives To estimate the frequency of distorted claims and over-interpretation of abstracts of systematic reviews related to accelerated orthodontic tooth movement. The objective was to differentiate the type of claim and to determine its prevalence. Methods A literature search was performed using the Cochrane library and the top five most prominent orthodontic journals for systematic reviews on accelerated orthodontics were identified by applying appropriate key words. According to pre-set selection criteria, only systematic reviews published between January 2010 and September 2021 were included. The selected articles were scrutinised for the assigned exclusion criteria. The articles were finally scanned for false claims by two independent reviewers. The identified claims fell into either the categories of misleading interpretation, misleading reporting or misleading extrapolation. The obtained data were tabulated and analysed using the one-way ANOVA statistical test to indicate the difference between the different types of reported claims. Results There were 98 systematic reviews identified in total, of which 59 articles met the selection criteria and 39 articles were excluded. Of the 59 included articles, 38 systematic reviews had exaggerated claims. Twenty-two of the reported claims came under the misleading reporting category, 10 fell under the misleading interpretation category and 6 came under the misleading extrapolation category. The difference noted between the reporting prevalence of different types of claim was statistically significant (P < 0.001). In misleading reporting, it was noted that most of the systematic reviews refrained from reporting the adverse effects of treatment. Conclusion The prevalence of exaggerated claims is high in the abstracts of systematic reviews related to accelerated orthodontic tooth movement. It is recommended that a clinician critically assess the claims presented in systematic reviews which are considered to be the hallmark articles of evidence-based practice. Orthodontists should be careful when applying the findings in clinical practice.

“…It has been claimed that both types can reduce orthodontic treatment duration, a result that could reduce an important side effect of the lengthy orthodontic treatment, that is OIIRR. However, a recently published systematic review found no evidence that vibrating appliances are effective in accelerating orthodontic tooth movement 45 . Although mechanical vibration devices are available in the market for more than ten years, only two published studies assessed their effects on OIIRR.…”

Background The current systematic review aimed to assess the impact of intraoral non‐surgical non‐pharmacological adjunctive interventions on orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR). Search methods Search without restrictions was performed up to November 2020 in three electronic databases (Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE and EMBASE) for randomized controlled trials (RCTs), prospective and retrospective non‐randomized studies. The ROB 2.0 tool was used to assess the quality of the included RCTs, and the ROBINS‐I tool was applied to non‐randomized clinical studies. The strength of evidence was ranked using GRADE. Results Three hundred and sixteen records were initially retrieved. A total of 10 studies, with 236 patients, were finally considered. These studies assessed the effects of mechanical vibration (low‐frequency and high‐frequency), low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), low‐level laser therapy (LLLT) and photobiomodulation (light‐emitting devices (LED). While the low‐frequency vibration and LED do not seem to affect OIIRR, OIIRR has been reported to be reduced in high‐frequency vibration, and LIPUS‐treated teeth (differences may not likely be considered clinically relevant). The potential positive effect of LLLT on OIIRR is still debatable. Overall, the existing evidence suggests that the amount of OIIRR observed while using these interventions with traditional orthodontic treatment was not more than that was observed without it. Conclusions Based on a very low level of confidence, it seems that intraoral non‐pharmacological non‐surgical adjunctive interventions do not affect the amount of OIIRR either positively or negatively to a clinically relevant degree when compared to what is seen with conventional orthodontic treatment alone.

“…Zu dieser Thematik wurden zwar insgesamt 84 Studien zusammengetragen, von denen jedoch nur 3 für die Metaanalyse verwendet werden konnten. Das Ergebnis der Auswertungen war, dass es keine Belege dafür gibt, dass vibrierende Apparaturen die kieferorthopädische Zahnbewegung beschleunigen könnten [5].…”

ZusammenfassungAuf einen kurzen Überblick über die histologischen Veränderungen im Desmodont und dem Alveolarknochen während der unterschiedlichen Phasen einer kieferorthopädischen Bewegung von Zähnen folgt eine Zusammenfassung von zellbiologischen Aspekten der Interaktionen zwischen Zellen, wie Fibroblasten, Osteoblasten, Osteozyten und Osteoklasten, und der extrazellulären Matrix bei der Zahnbewegung.Eine immer deutlicher werdende Forderung nach einer Beschleunigung der Zahnbewegung und damit einer Verkürzung der Dauer einer kieferorthopädischen Behandlung hat zur Entwicklung einer ganzen Reihe unterschiedlicher Interventionen geführt. Zwei der Hauptkategorien werden im vorliegenden Beitrag diskutiert. Einerseits die Veränderung der physikalischen Bedingungen und andererseits die Applikation von Agentien, mit denen die zellbiologischen Prozesse des Knochenumbaus stimuliert werden können.
