An increasing number of adult patients are seeking orthodontic treatment to enhance their smile or their masticatory function. In this fast-paced and self-conscious society, time and esthetics have become increasingly important. One of the biggest challenges an adult orthodontic patient faces is the time spent wearing brackets. Over the years, several surgical techniques have been developed to address this issue and reduce overall treatment time. Although very effective, these techniques have proven to be quite invasive. A new, minimally invasive procedure (piezocision) is presented that combines microincisions and localized piezoelectric surgery to achieve similar results rapidly and with minimal trauma.
越来越多的成年患者寻求正畸治疗以改善笑容或咀嚼功能。在这个快节奏且注重自我形象的社会中，时间和美观变得愈发重要。成年正畸患者面临的最大挑战之一是佩戴牙套所花费的时间。多年来，已开发出多种外科技术来解决这一问题并缩短整体治疗时间。尽管这些技术非常有效，但事实证明它们具有相当的侵入性。本文介绍了一种新的微创手术（压电切开术），该手术结合了微小切口和局部压电手术，能快速取得类似效果且创伤极小。
