Speeding up tooth movement with blood concentrate and light therapy during clear aligner treatment
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether using your own blood concentrate (PRP) and a special red light treatment can speed up tooth movement with clear aligners. If you're a young adult starting clear aligner therapy, this might reduce your treatment time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 25 years old
- Need clear aligners (like Invisalign) to straighten your teeth
- Have good oral hygiene and healthy gums
- Have all your permanent teeth (except wisdom teeth)
- Be willing to follow the aligner wear schedule and come to follow-up visits
- Not have had braces or aligners before
- Not have conditions that affect bone healing or take medications that slow tooth movement
- Not be sensitive to light and be OK with a small blood draw

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 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 tests whether a clear aligner treatment can straighten teeth in people with mild to moderate crowding. It may help you achieve a better smile without traditional braces.
This trial studies whether Orthopulse light therapy (a form of light treatment) can help during orthodontic treatment with fixed braces. It’s for adults who need braces for crowded front lower teeth, and it will compare outcomes during the alignment phase.
