Effect on Periodontal Phenotype of Flapless Piezoincission During Orthodontic Treatment
Sponsor: Universidad Complutense de Madrid
Summary
Research Question While the reduction in treatment times and the patient satisfaction after periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) are well sustained in the scientific literature, there is still controversy regarding if grafting leads to i) change of the periodontal phenotype and ii) greater stability of post-orthodontic treatment outcomes, highlighting the need of controlled clinical trials. Aims of the Project The aim of this randomized clinical trial (RCT) is to compare piezocision-assisted orthodontics, concomitant to soft tissue grafting (volume-stable collagen matrix), with piezocision-assisted orthodontics, concomitant to bone grafting with a xenograft and a native collagen membrane, in orthodontic non-growing patients. The primary aim will be to determine the impact of this surgical protocol on the hard and soft tissue changes occurring on the buccal aspect of the dentition. Secondary objectives will include the assessment of the comparative impact on treatment duration, rate of tooth movements, presence of root resorption, periodontal parameters, bone level changes and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) between the two groups.
