Could your own blood stop braces from damaging your teeth?

NCT ID NCT07352241

Summary

This study tested whether an injection made from a patient's own blood (called injectable platelet-rich fibrin) could prevent a common side effect of braces: the shortening of tooth roots. Researchers worked with 36 adults getting braces for crowded front teeth to see if the injection helped protect the roots during treatment. The goal was to make orthodontic treatment safer by using the body's natural healing factors.
