One of the main goals of orthodontic treatment is the reduction of treatment time through faster tooth movement. The previous studies evaluating platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) are limited, which makes the results difficult to generalize.
One of the main goals of orthodontic treatment is the reduction of treatment time through faster tooth movement. The previous studies evaluating platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) are limited, which makes the results difficult to generalize. To this end, we set up this Randomized experiment to evaluate the effect of the injectable form of PRF (i-PRF) on OTM, using nonadditive containing i-PRF, which has higher levels of regenerative cells and growth factors compared with other PRF types because of the use of low centrifugation spee. Accordingly, we aimed to evaluate the effect of i-PRF on the rate of maxillary incisors leveling during comprehensive orthodontic treatment.

RECRUITINGLeveling and alignment maxillary incisors
\- Alginate impressions were taken at insertion of the first archwire (0.014-in nickel-titanium) maxillary incisors Leveling and alignment. Leveling and alignment were achieved through the following sequence of archwires: 0.014-in nickel-titanium (NiTi), 0.016 × 0.022-in NiTi, 0.017 × 0.025-in NiTi, 0.019 × 0.025-in stainless steel (SS)(3).
