The effect of micro ‑osteoperforation on root resorption, pulp vitality, and biological changes of teeth subjected to orthodontic tooth movement: A systematic review study
Conclusion: In this systematic review, according to the adverse effects of MOP on root resorption,one study showed higher levels of root resorption among patients undergoing MOP. However, thisoutcome was due to the different methods used to evaluate the effect of MOPs on root resorption.Moreover, a high certainty of evidence supports that MOP causes biological changes and an elevationin cytokines, chemokines, and other biomarkers that stimulates osteoclasts differentiation whichin turn accelerate OTM. There was no change in pulp vitality status based on available evidence.Key Words: Biomarkers, flapless ‑osteoperforation...
