Effect of MOPs During Orthodontic Movement in Periodontitis Patients
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Micro-ostoperforations (MOPs): 3 MOPs will be performed in the bone next to the root of the experimental tooth. MOPs will be performed using the Excellerator® (Propel Orthodontics, Denstply, Sirona)
Study summary
Micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) cause cortical bone injuries and consequently increase the expression of inflammatory mediators, allowing for increased bone and periodontal ligament remodeling associated with orthodontic movement. It remains unclear the effect of orthodontic intrusion combined with MOPs application on teeth with reduced periodontium. The general objective will be to determine the efficacy of MOPs during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in terms of periodontal and orthodontic outcomes in stage IV periodontitis patients, case type 2 with pathological tooth migration (PTM), characterized the presence of at least one flared tooth of the upper-anterior sextant with an intrabony defect (intrabony component \<5mm)
