The rate of Orthodontic tooth movement has always been of interest as the treatment is generally of a long duration. Several issues of a long Orthodontic treatment include maintenance of oral hygiene and patient compliance.
Corticotomy assisted fixed orthodontic treatment uses the phenomenon of RAP (regional acceleratory phenomenon) . This study (Split mouth randomised clinical trial study) aims to quantify the rate of tooth movement between the corticotomy and non corticotomy sides . The Corticotomy side showed a significant rate of tooth movement (Canine retraction) compared to the control side .
