Measurement of tooth movement

American Journal of Orthodontics, 1976
1. Tooth movement relative to the alveolar bone can be precisely described only by superimposing on fixed points in the bone. Implants are the best known way today. Over short-term studies laminagraphy and the use of bony trabeculations are also useful.

Tooth movement – clinical implications

International Orthodontics, 2010
The tissue-based phenomena and the tissue interactions responsible for tooth displacement can be modulated by varying the intensity of the applied forces or by means of medicated molecules absorbed by the patient or prescribed by the orthodontist. However, harmful side-effects such as inflammatory root resorption or replacement resorption (ankylosis ...

Mechanics of tooth movement

American Journal of Orthodontics, 1984
Orthodontic forces can be treated mathematically as vectors. When more than one force is applied to a tooth, the forces can be combined to determine a single overall resultant. Forces can also be divided into components in order to determine effects parallel and perpendicular to the occlusal plane, Frankfort horizontal, or the long axis of the tooth ...

Prostaglandins and tooth movement

The European Journal of Orthodontics, 1984
The effect of flurbiprofen, a prostaglandin cycloxygenase inhibitor, on tooth movement was studied using New Zealand white rabbits. Under general anaesthesia, springs were ligated between the lower first molars and incisors resulting in approximation of these teeth.

Orchestration of tooth movement

American Journal of Orthodontics, 1983
Recent advances in the art and mechanics of delivering orthodontic forces have achieved greater precision and control of tooth movement. The exact mechanism by which these forces orchestrate tooth movement is not thoroughly understood. An accurate understanding and precise control over the factors responsible for initiating and carrying out the tissue ...

Tooth Movement

Critical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine, 1991
This article reviews the evolution of concepts regarding the biological foundation of force-induced tooth movement. Nineteenth century hypotheses proposed two mechanisms: application of pressure and tension to the periodontal ligament (PDL), and bending of the alveolar bone.
