Abstract:

This article reports a case who was treated with immediate replacement of periodontally compromised mandibular incisors using the extracted incisors as a natural tooth pontic. Following extraction and root resection of the mandibular incisors, radicular pulp was cleaned and filled with composite resin and then bonded to adjacent teeth with fiber reinforced composite resin. This is a simple, economical, and conservative chair-side technique for periodontally compromised teeth using the patient’s own extracted teeth and can be used as an interim or a definitive treatment.

Factors Associated with Orthodontic Tooth Movement in Periodontally Compromised Patients

There is no consistent relationship between malocclusion and periodontal disease but certain characteristics of malocclusion can promote a pathologic environment conducive to periodontal disease. One of the dramatic means available to improve the local environmental factors is through orthodontic tooth movement. The pretreatment periodontal conditions can include excessive tooth mobility, advan...
