Poke to move? tiny holes tested to speed braces

NCT ID NCT07155018

Summary

This study tested whether making tiny, minimally invasive holes in the jawbone (called micro-osteoperforations or MOPs) could speed up the movement of a specific tooth during braces treatment. It involved 40 young patients who needed to have two upper premolars removed. Each patient had the MOP procedure done on one side of their mouth but not the other, to compare the speed of tooth movement and any pain experienced.
