The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The oral microbiota develops within the first 2 years of childhood and becomes distinct from the parents by 4 years‐of‐age. The oral microbiota plays an important role in the overall health/symbiosis of the individual. Deviations from the state of symbiosis leads to dysbiosis and an increased risk of pathogenicity.

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Uneven gingival margins may cause visible asymmetries during smiling and may reflect alterations in the tooth shape and morphology, particularly in cases requiring restorative procedures. Despite being perceived as a minor health condition, presence of uneven gingival margins usually impacts the smile aesthetics and could affect the individual'

The Relationship of Various Arch Forms and Cortical Bone Thickness
Frontiers in Dentistry, 2011 Objective: Implants are being used in orthodontics as a reliable mode of anchorage. Among other factors, the cortical bone thickness plays a major role in determining the stability of these implants.

Dental Press Journal of OrthodonticsIntroduction: A canted occlusal plane presents an unesthetic element of the smile. The correction of this asymmetry has been typically considered difficult by orthodontists, as it requires complex mechanics and may sometimes even require orthognathic ...

Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Orthodontic camouflage of skeletal Class III malocclusion with miniplate: a case report
Dental Press Journal of OrthodonticsIntroduction: Skeletal Class III malocclusion is often referred for orthodontic treatment combined with orthognathic surgery. However, with the aid of miniplates, some moderate discrepancies become feasible to be treated without surgery.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The present narrative review aims to summarize the existing literature on recommendations for supportive periodontal care (SPC) in patients undergoing combined periodontal–orthodontic treatment. It outlines a comprehensive step‐4 treatment sequence in patients diagnosed with stage IV periodontitis and concurrent orthodontic problems.
