Lecture Description
There is an increasing number of patients with periodontal problem who seek orthodontic treatment for improvement of function and aesthetics. The most common problems for periodontally compromised patients include irregular interdental space, migration, overeruption or loss of tooth. In patients with reduced but healthy periodontium, orthodontic treatment can perform with adjusted biological and biomechanical approaches. Movement of lower anterior teeth with a minimum level of attached gingiva need more attention during treatment and even after completion of orthodontic treatment. Teeth with reduced periodontium show mobility even in absence of inflammation, in which teeth move efficiently with the use of light forces. Movement of teeth into infrabony defects can be successfully accomplished with good oral hygiene. Intrusion of periodontally affected teeth is challenging for orthodontists even in absence of inflammation. There is no clear indication concerning cases with periodontal involvement, so evidence-based approaches will be provided in this lecture.
