Abstract

The molecular mechanisms controlling the behavior of the cells in the alveolar bone and periodontal ligament underlie the remodeling of tissues around the roots which mainly determines the rate of the orthodontic tooth movement under mechanical forces. Hastening of “orthodontic tooth movement” can greatly reduce the treatment period and occurrence of undesirable effects. Also, reduced treatment time results in increased positive and acceptable attitude universally towards the orthodontic treatment. This review synopsizes the contemporary methods to accelerate tooth movement which can be categorized into biological, physical and surgical methods.
