Abstract
With an increasing number of adult patients desiring for orthodontic treatment, the orthodontist should focus more on the
treatment which can lead to accelerated tooth movements. Surgical intervention to affect the alveolar bone and tooth movement
has been described in various forms for over many years. However, due to interdisciplinary approaches, orthodontics has
gained novel orthodontic tooth movement protocols. Periodontal accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) is a clinical
procedure that combines selective alveolar corticotomy, particulate bone grafting, and the application of orthodontic forces.
This protocol is based on the regional acceleratory phenomenon (RAP). Tooth movement can be accelerated and cases are
completed with additional benefits, thereby augmenting gingival and facial esthetics. The purpose of the present article is to
overview the chronicles of PAOO procedure.
