Orthodontic tooth movement (MDO) occurs when controlled force is applied for a certain period, generating inflammation, which results in bone remodeling. Some studies demonstrate that systemic medications can interfere with the course of inflammation and, indirectly, affect MDO and bone metabolism. Certain antidepressants have secondary anti-inflammatory action, however, there are no stud…
The restoration of the supporting tissues of the teeth after orthodotically induced tooth movement is a major challenge in patients with osteoporosis. It is known that when orthodontic tooth movement is indicated in patients with established osteoporosis, a longer post-treatment time is expected, and that there is a correlation between the present osteoporosis and mandibular / maxillary t…
Smoking habit is very common and, in most of the times, it begins early during adolescence. Among all the systemic alterations it causes, damage on cellular repair process is of great importance to understanding dental-skeletic movement. However, there is no scientific evidences related to this issue, orthodontic/orthopedic treatment and celular and biomolecular evaluations. The aim of th…
Objective: The aim of this study will be to investigate in vivo the VEGF and FGF2 (angiogenic fators) in bone tissue from the midpalatal suture upon treatment with LLLT after rapid maxillary expansion (RME). Material and Methods: A total of 55 rats will be divided into 3 groups: Control (5 rats - intact suture), Experimental I (25 rats with RME without LLLT) and Experimental II (25 rats w…

Introduction: Orthodontic tooth movement triggers a sequence of cellular and molecular events in periodontal tissues, where there is local release of several inflammatory mediators that can lead to root resorption. By generating tension in the roots of anchorage teeth, the application of orthodontic forces can predispose to the onset of external root resorption (ERR) with consequent loss …
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of orthopedic rapid maxillary expansion (ORME) on dental pulp of anchor teeth of young rats, through gene expression analysis by the PCR technique and through cytokines in blood plasma by the Multiplex Luminex technique.Sixty (n=60) male Wistar rats will be randomly distributed into 2 groups: Control Group (CG, n=30), in which the ani…
Background: Currently, the habit of smoking is considered a global public health issue. It is known that the inhalation of cigarette smoke is capable of causing a series of alterations to systemic health, which impair the repair process of body tissues. There is still no scientific evidence that fully correlates this habit and its influences on orthodontic treatment, especially regarding …
The tooth extraction is a common dental problem and can be due to trauma, decay, periodontal diseases or prosthetic indication. Patients with osteoporosis have alterations in the bone metabolism and they need a longer treatment time to permit the bone repair when this patient go on rehabilitation with implants or orthodontic treatment. Furthermore, a correlation between osteoporosis and b…
Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) occurs when a controlled force is applied for a certain period of time, generating inflammation, which results in bone remodeling. Some studies have shown that systemic medications can interfere with the course of inflammation and indirectly affect OTM and bone metabolism.
