Study of the velocity of upper canine retraction after alveolar corticotomy

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of alveolar corticotomy on orthodontic tooth movement when retracting upper canines compared with the conventionnal treatment. The sample consisted of 30 patients with a mean age of 21 ± 2 years requiring the therapeutic extraction of the maxillary first premolars, with subsequent retraction of the maxillary canines. The subjects were divided into two groups, one receiving orthodontic treatment assisted corticotomy (experimental group) and the other conven… Show more

“…Corticotomy was introduced by Kole in 1959 as a technique to accelerate tooth movement by injuring alveolar bone [ 4 ]. Cortical osteotomy or perforation with or without flaps is performed around the teeth that need to be moved, effectively shortening the time of orthodontic processes, such as the retraction of anterior teeth [ 5 7 ], intrusion of overerupted molars [ 8 , 9 ], expansion of the dental arch [ 10 , 11 ], treatment of open bites [ 12 , 13 ], traction of impacted teeth [ 14 , 15 ] or moderation of dental crowding [ 16 , 17 ]. Currently, the mechanism of tooth acceleration is believed to occur via the regional acceleratory phenomenon (RAP) [ 18 ]; that is, after cortical bone is damaged, the metabolism of local soft and hard tissues is accelerated, the alveolar bone around the tooth initiates rapid demineralization and remineralization processes, and the tooth can rapidly move under the action of orthodontic force.…”
