Can a simple procedure cut braces time in half?
NCT ID NCT07239024
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two techniques—piezocision (a minor surgical procedure) and injectable platelet-rich fibrin (using your own blood components)—to see which speeds up canine tooth movement during orthodontic treatment. About 16 people aged 14-22 who need premolar extraction and braces will take part. The goal is to find a faster, more comfortable way to shorten overall treatment time.
