Abstract:

The interest in adult patients for orthodontic treatment is increasing day by day. Many of these patients seek esthetic appliances and reduced treatment times. The author will present the new techniques and approaches to accelerate tooth movement, from the mechanical point of view (Damon System, Insignia) and from the biological point of view with special emphasis in Orthodontics facilitated by Wilkodontics, additionally the impact of Piezoincision, and micro pulsations as biological support tools. There is no doubt that the combination of passive self ligation and Insignia with conservative surgical procedures (Piezoincision) and/or Laser and micro pulsations can reduce treatment times up to 50%.
