Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effect of piezocision as an adjunctive procedure to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement. Materials and Methods: Randomized controlled trials and controlled clinical trials that investigated the effectiveness of piezocision on accelerating orthodontic tooth movement were identified through electronic and manual searches. The literature search, study inclusion, risk of bias assessment, and data extraction were performed by two reviewers independently. Results: Four eligible studies were included in this review. All studies reported accelerated tooth movement after piezocision, and three reported a significant reduction of treatment duration in the piezocision group. No deleterious effects on periodontal status, pain perception, satisfaction, root resorption, or anchorage control were reported in any studies. Conclusion: Based on currently available information, weak evidence supports that piezocision is a safe adjunct to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement, at least in the short term. More high-quality clinical trials to determine the long-term effects and optimal protocol for piezocision are needed to draw more reliable conclusions.
