Osteoimmunology in orthodontic tooth movement

Oral Diseases, 2014
The skeletal and immune systems share a multitude of regulatory molecules, including cytokines, receptors, signaling molecules, and signaling transducers, thereby mutually influencing each other. In recent years, several novel insights have been attained that have enhanced our current understanding of the detailed mechanisms of osteoimmunology.

Proteoglycans and Orthodontic Tooth Movement

Journal of Orthodontics, 2001
Proteoglycans represent an important and diverse family of extracellular matrix components within the connective tissues of the periodontium. This review focuses on the function and metabolism of the various proteoglycans in periodontal tissues, such as alveolar bone and periodontal ligament, and considers their potential fate in response to an ...

Medication and orthodontic tooth movement

Journal of Orthodontics, 2019
As any pharmaceutical substance may influence the events associated with orthodontic tooth movement, it is of importance for the clinician to be able to recognize any prospective patient’s history and patterns of medicinal consumption. This review presents the effects of various commonly prescribed medications on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement.

γδT Cells Are Essential for Orthodontic Tooth Movement

Journal of dentistry research, 2021
Sustained mechanical forces applied to tissue are known to shape local immunity. In the oral mucosa, mechanical stress, either naturally induced by masticatory forces or externally via mechanical loading during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), is ...

Leukotrienes in orthodontic tooth movement

American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 1989
Prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes (LTs) are products of arachidonic acid conversion. PGs have an established role in mediating orthodontic tooth movement. The role of LTs in modulating or mediating orthodontic tooth movement was investigated in this study.

Piezoelectric Tooth Aligner for Accelerated Orthodontic Tooth Movement

2018 40th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2018
In this paper, we propose a device that can induce vibration to potentially accelerate the rate of orthodontic tooth movement and thus reduce the duration of the orthodontic treatment. This is accomplished by harmonically exciting a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) piezoelectric actuators to generate vibration and hence generate cyclic loading at 30 Hz ...

Osteoclast polarization and orthodontic tooth movement

Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research, 2009
Structured AbstractAuthors –  Holliday LS, Ostrov DA, Wronski TJ, Dolce CIntroduction –  Osteoclasts polarize when they contact activation signals that are associated with bone. Polarization is required for bone resorption and involves highly specialized mechanisms that represent attractive targets for the development of osteoclast‐specific therapeutic

Prediction of orthodontic tooth movement

American Journal of Orthodontics, 1976
Orthodontics is rapidly advancing from the stage of fortuitous success to one of planned success. When appliance design is based on simple concepts of equilibrium, prediction of desirable and undesirable tooth movement becomes possible. The flow chart that has been presented allows the clinician to systematically treat dental discrepancies more ...

Tooth eruption and orthodontic movement

British Dental Journal, 1992
Teeth have been moved in man for centuries and the process of tooth eruption has occurred presumably since he evolved. The cellular and molecular mechanisms which are involved in these two phenomena are amongst the most intriguing questions in dental research today.
