Periotest values and tooth mobility in periodontal disease: a comparative study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Defined total defiection of maxillary centred incisors was ascertained in the orofaeial dtrection. The extent of bone atrophy resulting from marginal periodontitis was determmed by radiography Both values were compared with the Periotest value. A correlation and regression analysis demonsH-ated a significant relationship, such that the Feriotest provided accurate information about bone atrophy (Quintessence Int 3990:21:289-293.)

An evaluation of the Periotest method as a tool for monitoring tooth mobility in dental traumatology.
BACKGROUND/AIM The Periotest method is a technique for the objective assessment of tooth mobility. The aims of this study were to determine normal Periotest values in the vertical and horizontal dimensions of periodontally healthy teeth in individuals aged 20-35 years and investigate the reliability of Periotest in terms of intra-series and inter-series reproducibility before and after applying...
متن کاملLong-term follow-up of tooth mobility in maxillary incisors with orthodontically induced apical root resorption.
The aim of the study was to evaluate tooth mobility in relation to root length and alveolar bone support in maxillary incisors 10-25 years after orthodontic treatment, and to monitor the development during 5 years in a sub-sample. Thirty-six patients, seven males and 29 females with one or more severely resorbed maxillary incisors, a total of 139 teeth, were examined. At re-examination, 11 pati...
متن کاملA periodontal health assessment of hospitalized patients with myocardial infarction
Background: Recent researches have known long term infections such as periodontal disease to be related with the process of atherosclerosis. Periodontitis causes peripheral inflammation and immune cell stimulation which leads to an increase in C - reactive protein (CRP) and IgA Ab and there is a definite relation between cardiovascular disease, CRP increase and Periodontitis. The aim of this st...

متن کاملCorrelation of tooth mobility with systemic bone mineral density and periodontal status in Indian women.
Imbalanced bone remodelling associated with osteopaenic or osteoporotic conditions can lead to a net bone loss throughout the skeleton, including the oral cavity, possibly leading to tooth mobility. This study investigated possible associations between systemic bone mineral density and both tooth mobility and periodontal status in peri-menopausal women. Subjects comprised 119 dentate, peri-meno...
