MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES IN ROOT LENGTH OF MANDIBULAR CANINES AND FIRST MOLARS FOLLOWING ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT
Karthiga Senthil* and Dr. A. V. Arun
ABSTRACT Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the morphology changes in the root length of mandibular canines and first molars. Objective: The objective is to analyse the degree of morphological changes in the root length of different tooth groups, i.e. canines and molars. Background: External apical root resorption is a common phenomenon associated with orthodontic treatment. The factors relevant to root resorption can be divided into biological and mechanical factors. The various mechanical factors include extensive tooth movement, root torque and intrusive forces, movement type, orthodontic force magnitude, duration and type of force. The various biological factors are genetic susceptibility, systemic disease, gender and medication intake have been demonstrated to influence root morphology. Reason: The purpose of this study is to determine any morphological changes in the root length that may lead to any considerable changes to the tooth structure. Keywords: The aim of this study to the tooth structure. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
