Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics With BMP2

rhBMP-2 has the potential to function as a regenerative material in periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO). This study aimed to assess the effects of PAOO with BMP-2 on outcomes such as treatment period, bone density, healing and pain.

About this study

Subjects were randomly assigned into each of the following experimental groups; C+BMP: corticotomy with 0.5 μg/mL rhBMP-2 and C: corticotomy only. Clinical parameters included recording the duration of treatment period, visual analogue scale (VAS) scores and early healing index (EHI) scores. The evaluation of bone density was performed at baseline, 3 months and 6 months by using RVG.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • 30 subjects with moderate crowding of lower incisors based upon Little's index and willing to undergo undergoing orthodontic treatment with extraction therapy of lower 1st premolars and PAOO were included in the study.

Exclusion criteria

  • Smokers and subjects with severe crowding of anterior teeth, periodontitis and systemic diseases were excluded from the study.

Treatment and study plan

RhBMP-2 Protein, Recombinant

Drug

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are a category of proteins that are involved in bone formation and repair. Among these, BMP-2 is one of the most potent members of the BMP family and has been used for correcting intrabony, supraalveolar, furcation, and fenestration defects due to its osteoinductive property. BMP's are also essential for differentiation of osteoclasts, but their role in this process remains unclear. Treatment of osteoclasts with exogenous BMP-2 directly enhances RANKL-stimulated differentiation of osteoclast precursors in vitro and stimulates survival and resorptive activity of mature osteoclasts that accelerates the tooth movement.

Primary outcomes

  1. Orthodontic treatment duration

    Time frame: Up to 6 months

    Periodic recall of patients for every two weeks was done to assess the amount of crowding relieved by using digital Vernier calipers and photographs. The time taken to unravel the crowding in the pretreatment and post treatment study models and photographs was recorded.
