With more general practitioners offering clear-aligner treatments, being up-to-date on the biological mechanisms and pharmaceuticals that might affect tooth movement is crucial. A new comprehensive ...

Dental crowding is an issue in much of the U.S. population, but lengthy treatment time leads some patients to dismiss leveling and alignment treatments. Low-light laser therapy may be a safe method to ...

Researchers have revealed that RANKL expressed by osteocytes is essential for the bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement. This result can facilitate the development of novel therapeutic ...

Heavy mechanical force (MF)-activated Piezo1 decelerates orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in vivo. Heavy mechanical force (MF) conditions activate Piezo1-inhibited ITPR3 in periodontal ligament stem ...

Orthodontic tooth movement is fundamentally driven by the application of controlled mechanical forces to reposition teeth within the alveolar process. This movement is intrinsically linked to alveolar ...

Orthodontic tooth movement is a dynamic process that involves the controlled displacement of teeth in response to applied forces, an essential component of modern treatment modalities. Recent ...

Sustained hypoxia affects orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) by altering osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation, report researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Hypoxic conditions resulted ...
