Orthodontic Tooth Movement, Stage IV Periodontitis

Keywords
Stage IV periodontitis, Orthodontic tooth movement, Micro-osteoperforations
Brief 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)
Detailed description
This is a comparative 2-arm parallel single-blinded randomized controlled clinical trial, with allocation ratio of 1:1, aimed to test an intervention (the use of MOPs) on CAL changes 12 months after placing orthodontic appliances. The control intervention will be the same treatment without the bone traumatic intervention. Sample: Patients with stage IV periodontitis case type 2 characterized with PTM characterized the presence of at least one flared tooth of the upper-anterior sextant with an intrabony defect (intrabony component \<5mm) attending the Post-graduate Program of Periodontology and the Post-graduate Program of Orthodontics of the Faculty of Dentistry at the Complutense University of Madrid (UCM).
Interventions
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)
