Epithelial rests of Malassez: from latent cells to active participation in orthodontic movement

ABSTRACT Introduction: The epithelial rests of Malassez (ERM) represent a group of cells in the periodontal ligament classically consisting of latent or quiescent structures associated with pathological processes. However, recent evidence shows that these structures cannot be considered only as cellula...

Obesity and orthodontic treatment: is there any direct relationship?

ABSTRACT Obesity is a wide-spread condition directly or indirectly connected with an increase in the prevalence of a variety of human diseases. It affects over 50% of the western overall population. In 2017, a thorough analysis of 204 studies on obesity and cancer revealed that the condition increases th...

Selective alveolar corticotomy to intrude overerupted maxillary first molars: analysis of pulp vitality

The excessive and prolonged orthodontic treatment might result in loss of pulp vitality. Selective alveolar corticotomy is an alternative to accelerate the orthodontic treatment in adults. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of selective alveolar corticotomy associated with orthodontic intrusion on p...

Reevaluation of the Strain Pressure Theory: Toward a Better Understanding the Biology of Tooth Movement

The aim of this report was to analyze the majority of publications referred to orthodontic movement Biological basis, principally strain- pressure theory taking account contemporaneous methodological study designs. The literature published in Pubmed from 1967 to 2014 was reviewed, in addition to well-kno...

Photoelastic analysis of stress generated by Connecticut Intrusion Arch (CIA)

ABSTRACT Objective: The present in vitro study evaluated, by means of the photoelastic technique, the effects generated by the Connecticut Intrusion Arch (CIA), with a 90o bend on the distal surface of molar tubes and using the 4 x 2 appliance on the anterior and posterior regions of the upper dental a...

Frictionless segmented mechanics for controlled space closure

ABSTRACT Extraction spaces may be needed to achieve specific orthodontic goals of positioning the dentition in harmony with the craniofacial complex. However, the fundamental reality that determines the occlusion final position is the control exerted by the orthodontist while closing the extraction space...
