Study Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that a piezotome-corticision procedure will have a transient acceleratory effect on the rate of tooth alignment and the overall treatment time. In addition, the subjects in the piezotome-corticision orthodontics group will experience a different level of pain, comfort, and satisfaction as opposed to the conventional orthodontics group.

Primary Outcome

Days until complete alignment of mandibular anterior alignment was achieved after wire insertion on both groups. Complete alignment was based on Little's Irregularity index (Sum of contact displacement in mm between the anterior teeth from mesial of one canine to the mesial of the contralateral canine) of less than 2mm.
