Corticotomy assisted enmasse retraction

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Dental Advancements - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 4

Abstract

As the field of orthodontics is progressing day by day, the patients are interested in getting their orthodontic treatment finished as early as possible. Hence, many attempts are being made to fasten the orthodontic tooth movement. Corticotomy or (PAOO) is one of the procedure which fastens the treatment time and gives faster results when compared to the traditional orthodontic therapy. PAOO is a combination of a selective alveolar decortication, particulate bone grafting followed by application of orthodontic forces. This article shows a case treated with Corticotomy to fasten the retraction so as to reduce the overall orthodontic treatment.
