Introduction: The need to accelerate tooth movement and to decrease orthodontic treatment time has long been the area of research in the field of orthodontics. This study uncovers the modern day techniques in the field of orthodontics to address the issue of prolonged treatment time. Objective: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of microosteoperforations on the rate of tooth movement. Material and Method: This is a randomized control trial in which 30 patients with class II division I were selected. Microosteoperforation side was randomly assigned to 1 side of the maxillary arch at the canine premolar region, and the other side served as the control. By using miniscrews as anchorage, canine retraction was initiated via powerchain. After 4 weeks rate of tooth movement is evaluated. Results: Rate of tooth movement on microosteoperforation side was significantly higher than the control. Rate of tooth movement after micro osteoperforations is 2.04 mm per 4 weeks. Conclusion: The findings of the research successfully aimed to develop a road map for conducting future researches. An increased tooth movement achieved by micro osteoperforation has opened gates for faster and quicker orthodontics.
