JM 2
Physiologic Tooth Movement
It is the naturally occurring tooth movementsthat take place during and after tooth eruption
1. Tooth eruption2. Migration or drift of teeth3. Changes in tooth position during mastication
![Page 3: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
JM 3
Tooth Eruption
Axial or occlusal movement of the tooth from its developmental position within the jaw to its functional position in the occlusal plane
![Page 4: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
JM 4
Theories Of Tooth Eruption
• Vascular pressure theory• Root formation• Bone Remodeling• Periodontal ligament traction
This theory states that the periodontal ligament is rich in fibroblaststhat contain contractile tissue. The contraction of these periodontal fibers (mainly the oblique group) result in tooth eruption.
![Page 5: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
JM 5
Migration Or Drift Of Teeth• Teeth have the ability to drift through the alveolar
bone • Human teeth have a tendency to migrate in mesial or
occlusal direction • This maintains the inter-proximal and occlusal contact • Aided by bone resorption and deposition by
osteoclasts and osteoblasts respectively
![Page 6: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
JM 6
• Mesial - due to proximal caries (loss of tooth structure)
• Occlusal - Due to premature exfoliation or absence of opposing tooth (supra-eruption)
![Page 7: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
JM 7
Tooth Movement During Mastication• Normal force of mastication – 1 to 50 kg• It occurs in cycles of 1 second duration• Teeth exhibit slight movement within the socket and
return to their original position on withdrawal of the force
• Whenever the force is sustained for more than 1 second, periodontal fluid is squeezed out & pain is felt as the tooth is displaced within the periodontal space
![Page 8: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

PERIODONTIUM
![Page 9: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

JM 10
• Thickness of normal PDL – 0.5 mm• Collagenous fibres of PDL connects
the cementum and lamina dura• The fibers run at an angle attaching
farther apically on the tooth than on the adjacent alveolar bone
• PDL space is filled with fluid derived from vascular system
![Page 11: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Periodontal Ligament
![Page 12: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
JM 12
Cellular Elements in the PDL• Fibroblasts – produce and destroys collagen fibers• Osteoblasts –produce new bone• Osteoclasts – aids in bone resorption• Cementoblasts – forms new cementum• Cementoclasts – removes cementum• PDL is vascular and contains nerve endings which
aid in proprioception
![Page 13: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

OSTEOCYTE
![Page 16: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

OSTEOBLASTS
![Page 17: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

OSTEOCLASTS
![Page 18: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
JM 18
• Is orthodontic movement possible for a tooth that has undergone endodontic treatment ?
YES (the PDL is intact in this case)
• Is it possible to move an ankylosed tooth ?
NO (here there is complete absence of the PDL)
![Page 19: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
JM 19
Piezoelectric Effect• When a force is applied to a
crystalline structure (like bone or collagen), a flow of current is produced that quickly dies away
• When the force is released, an opposite current flow is observed
• The piezoelectric effect results from migration of electrons within the crystal lattice
![Page 20: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
JM 20
Response to Normal Function• Teeth and periodontal structures are subjected to
forces up to 50 kg during mastication• Force is transmitted to the alveolar bone which
bends in response• Generation of piezoelectric currents• It acts as an important stimulus to skeletal
regeneration and repair resulting in adaptation of bony architecture to functional demands
![Page 21: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
JM 21
Response to Continuous Pressure• < 1 second: Fluid in the PDL is incompressible
• 1 – 2 seconds: PDL fluid expressed, Tooth moves within PDL space
• 3 – 5 seconds: PDL fluid squeezed out, Tissue compressed and immediate pain is felt if force is heavy
![Page 22: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
JM 22
Force for Orthodontic Tooth Movement• Forces that bring about orthodontic tooth movement
are continuous and should have a minimum magnitude (threshold)
• Below this threshold limit, the PDL has the ability to stabilize the tooth by active metabolism
• The minimum pressure required is 5 to 10 gm/cm2 (current concept)
![Page 23: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
JM 23
Resting Pressure from Lip & Tongue• Upper Anteriors
Force exerted by LIP > Tongue• Lower Anteriors
Force exerted by TONGUE > LIP• Teeth remain stable in their position as the
unbalanced forces acting on them, are below the threshold limit tolerated by the metabolism in PDL
![Page 24: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
JM 24
Magnitude of Force VS Tooth Movement
![Page 25: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

ORTHODONTIC TOOTH MOVEMENT
![Page 26: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
JM 26
Modes of Orthodontic Tooth Movement
Forces created by orthodontic appliances bring about tooth movement by 2 mechanisms.
• FRONTAL Resorption• UNDERMINING Resorption
![Page 27: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
JM 27
Frontal Resorption
• Accomplished by Light Orthodontic Forces• least painful • least harmful to the periodontium• Most desirable
![Page 28: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
JM 28
• Caused by Heavy Orthodontic Forces• Painful• More harmful to the periodontium• Occurs in a small scale even in the most careful
orthodontic treatment• The dentist should always try to minimize this
Undermining Resorption
![Page 29: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
JM 29
Role of Piezoelectric Current • Piezoelectric currents produced on application of force
on tooth and alveolar bone dies off quickly and play little role in orthodontic tooth movement
• Orthodontic tooth movement requires sustained forces which does not produce continuous piezoelectric current
• But these signals which are produced while normal chewing are required for proper maintenance of normal bony architecture
![Page 30: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
JM 30
The Pressure – Tension Theory• When force is applied on the tooth, PDL is
compressed on one side and stretched on the other side
• Blood flow is decreased on the pressure side where PDL is compressed
• Blood flow is increased on the tension side where PDL is stretched
![Page 31: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
JM 31
• The process of initiation of tooth movement has 3 stages1. Alternation of blood flow associated with
pressure within the PDL2. The formation and release of chemical
messengers3. Activation of cells which causes deposition and
resorption of bone
![Page 32: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
JM 32
• BONE RESORPTION (osteoclastic activity) takes place at the side of the PDL where there is PRESSURE
• BONE FORMATION (osteoblastic activity) takes place at the side where there is TENSION
![Page 33: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
JM 33
Maintenance of Thickness of Alveolar Bone• In an ideal treatment, the attachment level is
maintained • Resorption and deposition of bone maintains its
thickness in the facial and lingual side irrespective of the type of movement the tooth has undergone on the alveolar bone
![Page 34: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
JM 34
Chemical Regulation of OTM• Within the 1st hour
Increase in Prostaglandin E & Interleukin – 1Increase in Cytokines & Nitric oxide (NO)
• After 4 hours of pressure applicationIncrease in cAMP (chemical mediator for differentiation)
PROSTAGLADINS can stimulate formation of both OSTEOBLAST & OSTEOCLAST
![Page 35: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
JM 35
• It takes a minimum of 4 to 6 hours of continuous force to initiate orthodontic tooth movement
• So removable appliance worn for less than this minimum period of time is of no use
Maximum efficiency is obtained if the appliance is worn for 24/7
![Page 36: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
JM 36
Types of Orthodonic Forces
• LIGHT Force – Frontal resorption• HEAVY Force – undermining resorption
![Page 37: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
JM 37
Effect of Magnitude of Force on PDL
![Page 38: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
JM 38
Application Of Continuous Light Force• < 1 second: PDL fluid is incompressible, alveolar bone
bends, piezoelectric signal generated
• 1 – 3 seconds: PDL fluid expressed & tooth moves within the socket
• 3 – 5 seconds: Blood vessels within PDL partially compressed on pressure side & dilated on tension side. PDL fibers and cells are mechanically distorted
![Page 39: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
JM 39
• Minutes: Blood flow altered & oxygen tension begins to change. Prostaglandins and cytokines released
• Hours: Metabolic changes ocures. Chemical messengers affects cellular activity. Enzyme levels change
• 4 Hours: Iincreased cAMP levels are detectable & cellular differentiation begins within PDL
• 2 Days: Tooth movement begins as osteoclasts & osteoblasts remodel bony socket
![Page 40: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
JM 40
No pressure – Normal perfusion of blood vessels
![Page 41: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
JM 41
Light pressure – blood vessels constricted
![Page 42: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
JM 42
Tension side – Fibers stretched & Vessels open wide
![Page 43: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
JM 43
Result of Continuous Light Force• Osteoclasts initiates resorption of lamina dura from
the side of PDL• The osteoclasts arrive in 2 waves
1st wave derived from the PDL itself2nd wave (larger) from distant areas via blood flow
• All these events lead to FRONTAL RESORPTION
![Page 44: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
JM 44
Application of Continuous Heavy Force• < 1 second: PDL fluid is incompressible, alveolar bone
bends, piezoelectric signal generated
• 1 – 3 seconds: PDL fluid expressed & tooth moves within the socket
• 3 – 5 seconds: Blood vessels with in PDL occlude on the pressure side
![Page 45: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
JM 45
• Minutes: Blood flow gets cut off to compressed PDL area
• Hours: Cell death in compressed area• 3 to 5 days: Cell differentiation in adjacent marrow
spaces; undermining resorption begins• 7 to 14 days: Undermining resorption removes
lamina dura adjacent to compressed PDL & tooth movement occurs
![Page 46: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
JM 46
Heavy Pressure – Blood flow totally cut off
![Page 47: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
JM 47
Compressed PDL after Sterile Necrosis
![Page 48: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
JM 48
Cellular Changes• Loss of blood flow causes sterile necrosis of the PDL• A “Hyalinized” area devoid of cells and vasculature
develops• Osteoclasts appear within the adjacent bone marrow
spaces and begins an attack on the underside of the bone immediately adjacent to the necrotic PDL area
• An initial delay in tooth movement ocures
![Page 49: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
JM 49
• This delay is due to 2 reasons• The delay in stimulating differentiation of cells
within the marrow space • A considerable thickness of bone has to be
removed from the underside before any tooth movement can take place
![Page 50: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

JM 52
Centre Of Resistance
• It is the point on the tooth when a single force is passed through it, would bring about its translation along the line of action of the force
![Page 53: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
JM 53
• Factors affecting Centre of Resistance1. Number of roots2. Degree of Alveolar Bone loss3. Degree of Root Resorption
![Page 54: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
JM 54
ANCHORAGE• It is the Resistance to Unwanted Tooth Movement
Or
• It is the nature and degree of resistance to displacement offered by an anatomic unit for the purpose of effecting tooth movement
![Page 55: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
JM 55
Absolute Anchorage
1. Appliances gaining anchorage from extraoral structures – Extraoral appliances (eg – Head Gear)
![Page 56: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
JM 56
2. Titanium screws implanted into the alveolar bone through the gingiva to act as anchorage
![Page 57: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
JM 57
Intraoral Anchorage
• Anchorage value of a tooth is proportional to the surface area of the root
• The tooth with larger root surface area requires greater force to move
![Page 58: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)

JM 59
• Teeth that are ANKYLOSED or DILACERATED are very good sources of anchorage

Deleterious Effects of Orthodontic Force• Pain• Allergic reactions• Mobility • Gingival Inflammation• Loss of vitality of pulp• Root Resorption
![Page 69: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
JM 69
Pain• If appropriate force (not heavy) is applied, the patient
feels little pain immediately• Pain develops after several hours• The patient feels mild aching sensation and the teeth
are quite sensitive to pressure• The pain usually lasts for 2 – 4 days and disappears
until the appliance is reactivated
![Page 70: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
JM 70
• For most of the patients, the pain associated with the initial activation of the appliance is most severe
• Pain is due to the development of ischemic areas in the PDL
• The pain is directly proportional to the area of PDL that has undergone sterile necrosis (hyalinization)
• So heavier forces produce larger areas of hyalinization and greater pain
• Pain can be managed using analgesics like ACETAMINOPHEN

JM 71
Allergic Reactions• Some patients may develop allergic reactions
to Stainless steel which contains NICKEL• Allergic reactions manifest as widespread
erythema and swelling of oral tissue which develops 1 – 2 days after starting the treatment
• In such patients, Stainless steel appliances (brackets, bands, wires etc) should be substituted with TITANIUM appliances

JM 72
Mobility• Mobility is due to–Widening of PDL space during orthodontic
treatment– Temporary disorganization of the fibers in the PDL
• Moderate increase in mobility is an expected response of orthodontic treatment
![Page 73: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
JM 73
• Heavier Force causes greater degree of Undermining Resorption which leads to Excessive mobility
• Excessive mobility indicates that there is heavy force acting on the tooth
• If the tooth becomes extremely mobile, force should be discontinued until the mobility decreases to moderate levels
• Excessive mobility will usually correct itself without permanent damage

JM 74
Insults to the Pulp• There will be a modest inflammatory response
within the pulp at the beginning of the treatment• It may cause an initial mild pulpitis which has no
long term significance
![Page 75: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
JM 75
Loss of Vitality of Pulp• Loss of vitality may be encountered if there is– History of previous trauma to the tooth – Poor control of orthodontic forces
• Heavy forces cause abrupt movement of root apex causing obstruction of the blood flow to the pulp
• Relatively heavy forces applied for intrusion can also give rise to the same situation
![Page 76: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
JM 76
Root Resorption• Cementum adjacent to the hayalinized PDL undergo
resorption by cementoclast cells• This can progress to the extend of dentin destruction• Once orthodontic forces are removed, repair occurs
by the deposition of new cementum in the area of previous destruction
• Dentin once lost will not be replaced

Severe Resorption
![Page 82: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
JM 82
Moderate Generalized Resorption• Most of the teeth show some loss of root length • Greater in patients whose treatment duration
was longer• Shortening of root length is more for maxillary
incisors • In most cases, this type of resorption is clinically
insignificant
![Page 83: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
JM 83
Severe Generalized Resorption• This is mostly of unknown etiology• In case of patients with thyroid deficiency, chances
of developing severe generalized resorption is high• To prevent this, thyroid supplementation is
indicated

JM 84
Severe Localized Resorption
• Caused by excessive forces and prolonged duration of treatment
• Risk of severe resorption is much greater for maxillary incisors
• Very high risk is noted if roots of maxillary incisors are forced against the lingual cortical plate

Drugs which Enhance OTM
• Vitamin D administration
• Direct injection of Prostaglandin into PDL(disadvantage – It is very painful)

• TRICYCLIC ANTIDEPRESSANTS– Doxepine– Imipramine
• ANTIARRHYTHMIC agents– Procaine
• ANTIMALARIALS Drugs–Quinine– Chloroquine

JM 90
Patient with Osteoporosis• This condition is encountered in case of post-
menopausal females• The patient may be using BISPHOSPHONATES which
binds to Hydroxyapatite in bone and inhibits Osteoclast mediated Bone Resorption
• BEFORE ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT,– Consult the patient’s physician and temporarily
switch to estrogen therapy (Evista)
![Page 91: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
JM 91
Pain killers – Do they Inhibit OTM ?• Common analgesics used during treatment– IBUPROFEN– ASPIRIN
• At the dose level used during orthodontic treatment, they do not impede tooth movement
• Acetaminophen is a better option as it is a centrally acting agent which does not reduce inflammation
NSAIDS
![Page 92: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
JM 92
Prostaglandin Inhibitors in Microspheres• If Prostaglandin Inhibitors were placed in mini-
spheres and could be maintained in the sulcus around tooth (like antibiotics in periodontal therapy) which has to serve as anchorage, the efficiency of the orthodontic treatment can be improved.
![Page 93: Biology of OrthodonticTooth Movement](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102315/58f9b1f3760da3da068bc627/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
JM 93
Conclusion• A dentist should thoroughly understand the biological
factors and principles behind Orthodontic Tooth Movement. He should achieve the desired aesthetic and functional result using the optimum amount of force. He should also give consideration to the health of the periodontium and thus try to minimize the deleterious effects of the treatment.
