Faster Upper Front Tooth Movement With Micro-holes
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to move upper front teeth into better position using braces combined with tiny holes made in the bone. The goal is to correct an overbite (when upper front teeth stick out too far) more quickly and effectively.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 15 and 25 years old
- Your upper front teeth stick out at least 4 mm more than your lower front teeth
- All your permanent adult teeth have come in (except wisdom teeth)
- You have never had braces or orthodontic treatment before
- Your gums are healthy with no signs of disease or infection

This study compares different orthodontic force plans to see how they affect “root resorption,” when the tooth root shortens over time. It’s meant to find safer ways to move front lower teeth in teens who have a deep bite.
This trial tests special small screws coated with nano-material to help move upper front teeth back into place during braces treatment. The screws act as anchors to make tooth movement more effective for patients with protruding upper front teeth.
This study compares two ways to help your upper canine teeth move faster into place after premolar extractions: tiny holes in the bone or special light therapy. It aims to shorten your braces treatment time.
This study compares two methods of moving teeth after removing upper premolars (teeth used for chewing). It aims to find which approach works better for correcting bite and alignment issues.
This study tests if a small gum surgery (alveolar decortication) plus a natural growth factor injection (CGF) can speed up tooth movement in people who need braces and have two teeth removed. It may help you have a shorter treatment time.
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.
