Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The studyis randomized clinical trial being done to evaluate the effect of modifiedmicro-osteoperforation (MOP)  on the rateof orthodontic tooth movement over a period of two months. In addition we willbe accessing the impact of the number of perforations on the rate of orthodontictooth movement. The level of pain and discomfort if any will also be accessedamong the patients. Patients who visit the Department of Orthodontics andDentofacial Orthopedics will be taken for the trial after written consent hasbeen taken from them. Two groups will be taken and marked as MOP-1 and MOP-2.MOP-1 group having 3 MOP on one side and MOP-2 having 6 MOP on one side. Ineach patient other side of the mouth is taken as control side which recieves noMOP. Alginate impressions will be taken and casts poured immediately in thestart of the procedure and after 28 and again after 56 days. The rate ofretraction of teeth will be measured via these casts using vernier callipersand results will be taken accordingly.
