Pulpitis, external root resorption, and pain may be experienced during orthodontic movement. The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been suggested to control these changes. The purpose of this study was to observe pulp-dentinal reactions, root resorption, tooth pain, and tooth movement after the application of a 4-ounce intrusive orthodontic force to human maxillary first ...

Contemporarily, the ravages of tooth resorption are seen daily around the world. While some teeth can be retained many are lost to this process. Although many types of resorptive processes have been identified, the etiological factors involved in this malady are not often clear and both speculation as to it source and clinical management have received a great deal of empirical explanations and ...

Tooth resorption is a common sequel which follows injuries or irritation to the periodontal ligament and/or tooth pulp. The course of tooth resorption involves an elaborate interaction among inflammatory cells, resorbing cells, and hard tissue structures. The key cells which are involved in resorption are multi-nucleated giant cells. Internal root resorptions are usually non-symptomatic and the...

Progressive alveolar bone resorption after tooth extraction may lead to surgical and prosthetic-driven difficulties, especially when deciding to use a dental implant to replace the extracted tooth. This case report discusses an irreparable lower left second premolar tooth with a periodontal lesion on the buccal side. A preservative tooth extraction was performed. Then, the socket was grafted wi...

alveolar ridge resorption has long been considered an unavoidable consequence of tooth extraction. while the extent and pattern of resorption is variable among individuals, there is a progressive loss of ridge contour as a result of physiologic bone remodeling. even today, with best modalities of tooth preservation, there is a group of elderly individuals who do not benefit from modern preventiv...

background: socket preservation after tooth extraction is one of the indications of bone grafting to enhance preorthodontic condition. the aim of this study is to determine the effects of socket preservation on the immediate tooth movement, alveolar ridge height preservation and orthodontic root resorption. materials and methods: in a split-mouth technique, twelve sites in three dogs were inves...

Literature review There is a paucity of information on the concise relationship between endodontics and orthodontics during treatment planning decisions. This relationship ranges from effects on the pulp from orthodontic treatment and the potential for resorption during tooth movement, to the clinical management of teeth requiring integrated endodontic and orthodontic treatment. This paper revi...
