简要总结
The aim of the present study was to compare, a standard efficient technique in accelerating OTM as surgical corticotomy as a gold standard versus surgical corticotomy combined with LLLT in an attempt for further acceleration of OTM.
详细描述
The study design was a randomized split mouth design to compare, clinically and radiographically, between the two interventions (Corticotomy and Laser versus Corticotomy only) by assessing the rate of maxillary canine retraction achieved in 4 months. Secondary outcomes were to evaluate 1st maxillary molar anchorage loss, changes in tipping, torque and rotations values of maxillary canine and 1st molar. In addition, the impact of both interventions on root resorption was assessed. The present study was carried on 16 female patients. All patients required maxillary 1st premolar extraction and subsequent maxillary canine retraction.

研究组 & 干预措施
Corticotomy facilitated orthodontics.
Corticotomy is carried out under local anesthesia in right side.
干预措施: Corticotomy and low laser therapy (Procedure)
Corticotomy and low level laser therapy
Corticotomy is carried out under local anesthesia followed by low-intensity laser therapy that is started on the selected experimental side on the same day as placement of the coil spring
