Brief Summary
This study was conducted to compare the rate of second molar protraction, level of Interleukin1-β in gingival crevicular fluid, periodontal health (gingival index, plaque index, and periodontal pocket depth) and perception of pain in patients treated by molar protraction with piezocision vs control (no piezocision).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Rate of second molar protraction
measured in mm/month from onscreen dental cast
up to 3 months
Changes in the level of of Interleukin1-β
detected in Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)
Immediately before protraction/piezocision, 1 day, 1 week and 4 weeks after protraction/piezocision
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Anchorage loss
Each month up to 3 months
Pain Perception: Visual analogue scale (VAS)
Every day up to 7 days
Study Arms (3)
piezosurgery
EXPERIMENTALgroup 1 consisted of 18 molars (13 molars from patients with bilateral first molar extraction space and 5 molars from patients with unilateral first molar extraction space) where piezocesion was performed immediately before molar protraction
No piezocision
NO INTERVENTIONgroup 2 consisted of 21 molars (13 from patients with bilateral first molar extraction space and 8 molars from patients with unilateral first molar extraction space) where molar protraction was performed with no piezocesion
Late piezocision
OTHERgroup 3 consisted of 21 molars (group 2 subjects where piezocession was carried on after 3 months of molar protraction with no piezocesion.
Interventions
Piezocesion was performed by making 2 vertical incisions mesial and distal to the extraction space. Piezotome was inserted in the incisions previously made and bone cuts were done with a length up to mucogingival line and depth of 3 mm.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- age range from 20 to 27 years
- at least one extracted mandibular first molar (first molar extracted more than one year ago and residual extraction space more than 5 mm)
- Class 1 malocclusion where molar protraction is indicated
- all permanent teeth are present except for the extracted mandibular first molar/molars.
You may not qualify if:
- Ggingival index score \> 2
- Plaque index score \> 2
- Probing depth \> 4mm
- Previous orthodontic treatment
- Systemic disease and
- Smoker.
