UNLABELLED Orthodontically induced root resorption is an irreversible process that can have medical, ethical and legal implications. AIM The objective of this research was to identify morphological risk factors, in order to prevent it. MATERIAL AND METHODS We realized a retrospective study on 50 patients and made correlation between the prevalence and gravity of radiological identified root...

This clinical study evaluated factors related to root resorption before (T1) and after (T2) orthodontic treatment. Ninety-six subjects between 9 and 34 years (34 males and 62 females) who had been treated using fixed appliances for at least 1 year and who had panoramic radiographs at T1 and T2 were selected. The relationship between root resorption at T1 and T2, with regard to gender, age, extr...

INTRODUCTION The most frequent adverse effect of canine impaction is resorption of the adjacent incisors. The subjective image quality and the radiographic diagnostic accuracy for detection of simulated canine-induced external root resorption lesions in maxillary lateral incisors were compared among 6 cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems in vitro. METHODS A child cadaver skull in the ...

autogenous tooth transplantation (att) is a simple and reasonable choice for replacing the missing teeth when a proper donor tooth is available. this report presents a case of successful att of a maxillary right third molar for replacement of mandibular right second molar with a concomitant endodontic-periodontal disease. the mandibular second molar was believed to be hopeless due to a severe d...

The orthodontic treatment of patients with pre-existing root resorption (RR) is often difficult due to the increased risk progression and a compromised outcome can be expected. plan in such situations should comprise sparing strategy, which includes reducing duration fixed appliances, non-extraction treatment, force levels, avoiding intrusion at-risk teeth, amount apical movement affected teeth...

Introduction. ALBO-HA (Vinca, Serbia) is new nanostructured calcium aluminate cement, synthesized as a potential alternative to mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). The purpose of this study was compare the periapical tissue response cement with white MTA (MTA Angelus, Londrina, Brasil) root-filling material into root canal sheep?s teeth. Material and methods. Sixteen mandibular incisors from two ...

The low explained variance of identified risk factors for apical root resorption in orthodontic patients suggests effects of parameters related to individual predisposition. Our purpose was to explore this hypothesis. We evaluated standardized periapical radiographs of the maxillary incisors made before treatment (T1) as well as at about six and 12 months after bracket placement (T2 and T3) of ...
