Fiberotomy
A fiberotomy or pericision is an orthodontic surgery intended to sever the gingival filaments around a tooth. It typically lessens the tendency to relapse of tooth rotations corrected by dental braces or other treatments. The most frequently experienced post-orthodontic problem is the retention of re-established tooth position. Relapse (drifting of the tooth back to its position prior to orthodontic correction) may occur anywhere, but it is often connected with teeth that have experienced rotation (twisting) as a component of the orthodontic treatment. A fiberotomy involves the detachment of the fibers that attach the tooth to the bone via the gum.
