MUMBAI, India, June 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641051059 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences on April 22, 2026, for Bioelectric Gingival Stimulation Patch For Accelerator Orthodontic Tooth Movement.

Inventors include Poorani Veduprakash; Swapna Sreenivasagan; and Deepak Nallaswamy Veeraiyan.

The application for the patent was published on June 19, 2026, under issue no. 25/2026.

Abstract: ABSTRACT The present invention relates to a bioelectric stimulation patch specifically designed for application to the gingival and a! vc:olar mucosa for the purpose of accelerating orthodontic tooth movement. The patch delivers controlled low-level bioelectric stimulation to the periodontal tissues, alveolar bone, and surrounding cellular structures to enhance bone remodeling, cellular activity, and vascular response. The device comprises a flexible, biocompatible, intraoral patch embedded with conductive elements capable of delivering programmable microcurrent stimulation. By modulating bioelectrical signaling in periodontal tissues, the invention aims to reduce orthodontic treatment duration while maintaining biological safety and patient comfort.
