PAOO accelerates orthodontic treatment through surgery-induced bone regeneration and guided tooth repositioning, reducing treatment time.
Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (PAOO) is an interdisciplinary dental technique that merges periodontics, orthodontics, and oral surgery. It aims to expedite orthodontic treatment by leveraging the body’s natural healing response. The procedure involves two main steps: first, a minimally invasive surgery stimulates controlled inflammation in the gum and bone around target teeth, triggering bone regeneration. Then, orthodontic forces guide teeth into desired positions within the newly regenerated bone, capitalizing on the accelerated bone remodeling.
PAOO offers a way to significantly shorten orthodontic treatment time by tapping into the body’s inherent regenerative capabilities. This approach is particularly valuable for individuals seeking quicker results or facing challenges with bone support. However, careful patient selection and thorough treatment planning remain essential to ensure success and minimize potential risks.
Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics (PAOO) is a relatively new approach that combines orthodontic treatment with periodontal (gum) procedures to achieve faster tooth movement and improved orthodontic outcomes.
Assess the patient's dental and medical history.
Evaluate the severity of malocclusion and periodontal health.
Determine if the patient is a suitable candidate for PAOO.
The orthodontist and periodontist collaborate to create a comprehensive treatment plan.
Determine the optimal treatment approach, including the specific teeth to be moved and the areas for accelerated osteogenesis.
Obtain diagnostic records, including X-rays, photographs, and dental impressions.
Plan the orthodontic mechanics and tooth movement strategies.
Educate the patient about the treatment process, benefits, and potential risks.
Administer local anesthesia for patient comfort
The periodontist performs a minimally invasive surgical procedure.
The patient is allowed to heal for a brief period (usually a few days to a week).
Orthodontic appliances (braces or aligners) are placed on the teeth.
Orthodontic adjustments and tooth movements are initiated, taking advantage of the enhanced bone remodeling and accelerated tooth movement.
Provide the patient with postoperative instructions for oral hygiene and care of the surgical sites.
Schedule regular follow-up appointments with both the orthodontist and periodontist to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments.
Complete the orthodontic treatment once the desired tooth movement and occlusion are achieved.
Remove braces or aligners and evaluate the final results.
