Can platelet-rich plasma speed up tooth movement with clear aligners?
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special injection made from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma) can help move your teeth faster when using clear aligners. It may be a good option if you have mild to moderate crowding and healthy gums.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are not having any teeth removed as part of your treatment.
- You have all your permanent (adult) teeth (no baby teeth missing).
- Your gums are healthy and your oral hygiene is good.
- Your teeth crowding is mild to moderate, not severe.
- You are not currently taking anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen or aspirin.

This study tests whether a special injection made from your own blood (called injectable platelet-rich fibrin) can help move your teeth faster during braces treatment. It involves removing two upper premolars and then receiving the injection to see if it speeds up straightening.
This study tests whether a special gel made from your own blood (platelet-rich fibrin) can speed up tooth movement after a premolar extraction. You would be wearing braces, and one side of your mouth gets the gel while the other side is the control, so we can see if it works.
This trial tests whether a technique called tiny “micro-punctures” in the jaw bone can speed up orthodontic tooth movement in people with moderate front-lower tooth crowding. It uses clear aligners and may help teeth move faster, but only if you meet the dental and medical safety requirements.
This study compares two methods to speed up moving your canine teeth into their correct position after removing the premolars: a small surgical procedure (piezocision) or a natural blood concentrate treatment (injectable platelet-rich fibrin). The goal is to see which method works better for faster, safer tooth movement.
This study tests a new injectable treatment using your own blood cells to help repair damaged gum tissue and bone around teeth affected by periodontal disease (gum disease). The goal is to see if this minimally invasive approach can regenerate healthy gum and bone without major surgery.
This trial tests how well direct printed aligners can move the crowns of teeth in adults with mild spacing issues. If you have gaps between your front teeth and do not need extractions or braces for crowding, this study might be for you.
