A cone-beam computed tomography study of orthodontic apical root resorption
Background/purpose: Root resorption is an important problem in orthodontic treatment. Basically, the root resorption is evaluated by using two-dimensional images (e.g., periapical films, panoramic films, and cephalometric films). However, the use of such

Internal resorption: an unusual form of tooth resorption [PDF]
Internal resorption (IR) is a relatively rare occurrence, and most cases follow injury to pulp tissue, such as physical trauma or caries-related pulpitis. The condition is more frequently observed in male than in female subjects.1 Although IR is a relatively rare entity,2, 3 a higher prevalence of the condition has been associated with teeth that had ...

Tooth resorptions are not hereditary [PDF]
ABSTRACT Root resorptions caused by orthodontic movement are not supported by consistent scientific evidence that correlate them with heredity, individual predisposition and genetic or familial susceptibility. Current studies are undermined by methodological and interpretative errors, especially regarding the diagnosis and measurements of root ...

Treatment of class 2 division 1 malocclusion with severe short roots of upper central incisors
The average amount of resorption per root of examined maxillary incisors or anterior teeth is < 1.5 mm during comprehensive orthodontic treatment. About 5% of adults and 2% of adolescents are likely to have at least one tooth with resorption of more than

Management of progressive root resorption in replantation to avulsion [PDF]
Avulsion of permanent teeth is the most severe type of tooth injury. Replantation has been widely recognized as the optimal method for managing avulsed permanent teeth in teenagers. Due to significant damage to periodontal tissue and death of periodontal

The biomechanical function of periodontal ligament fibres in orthodontic tooth movement [PDF]
Orthodontic tooth movement occurs as a result of resorption and formation of the alveolar bone due to an applied load, but the stimulus responsible for triggering orthodontic tooth movement remains the subject of debate.
