PAOO SurgeryPeriodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics Surgery This is a regenerative surgery to help facilitate rapid but controlled teeth movement during orthodontic treatment without causing adverse side effects (bone resorption, gingival recession, root apex resorption, root ankylosis, teeth mobility, pulpal necrosis) while ensures the stability of teeth position long after orthodontic treatment. In cases of severe dental crowding and jawbone deficiency/deformity, PAOO has been proven in rigorous dental research journals to be effective in minimizing the need for expensive and invasive orthognathic surgery (which in the past was often utilized to correct jaw and teeth alignment). PAOO surgery involves making precise thin perforations on the surface of the jawbone with piezo surgical saw to induce a transient softening of the jawbone, thus reduces the resistance of the jawbone to allow rapid and controlled teeth movement. The soften jawbone will then gradually harden. In addition, bone grafting and gum grafting is also performed during PAOO surgery to increase the thickness of the jawbone and resilient fibrous gum needed to support the teeth. This grafting technique eliminates adverse side effects to jawbone and gum that are inherent with orthodontic treatment as mentioned above. Lastly, PAOO surgery has been shown to significantly cut down the time patients are required to be in braces because PAOO surgery enables teeth movement to be three (3) times faster than traditional orthodontic treatment without PAOO surgery. This is especially beneficial to orthodontic treatment in adult patients. |
