One of the primary concerns of the patients seeking orthodontic treatment is the duration of the treatment. In general, the duration required for fixed orthodontic treatment is about 2-3 years.

Several methods have been reported to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement which include surgical methods, pharmacological methods, and mechanical stimulation.
