High-frequency vibration (HFV) 120 Hz, adjunctive to clear aligners, allowed early aligner changes and corresponding tooth movements that led to shorter treatment time in minimum-moderate crowded cases. The HFV group demonstrated a statistically significant increase as compared with pre-treatment bone density, whereas control subjects showed no significant change from pre-treatment bone density.
