Abstract
Orthodontic treatment in adults is often related to longer treatment time as well as higher periodontal risks compared to adolescents. The aim of this review is to explore the influence of age-related chages on orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) from macro and micro perspectives. Adults tend to show slower tooth movement speed compared to adolescence, especially during the early phase. Under orthodontic forces, the biological responses of the periodontal ligament (PDL) and alveolar bone is different between adult and adolescents. The adult PDL shows extended disorganization time, increased cell senescence, less cell signaling and a more inflammatory microenvironment than the adolescent PDL. In addition, the blood vessel surface area is reduced during the late movement phase, and fiber elasticity decreases. At the same time, adult alveolar bone shows a higher density, as well as a reduced osteoblast and osteoclast activation, under orthodontic forces. The local cytokine expression also differs between adults and adolescents. Side-effects, such as excessive root resorption, greater orthodontic pain, and reduced pulpal blood flow, also occur more frequently in adults than in adolescents.

The efficacy and safety of corticotomy and periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontic interventions in tooth movement: an updated meta-analysis. Head Face Med 2024; 20:12. [PMID: 38368383 PMCID: PMC10874089 DOI: 10.1186/s13005-024-00409-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/19/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The surgically facilitated orthodontic strategy has been a promising strategy for orthodontic treatment recently. Therefore, the present meta-analysis was conducted to assess the available scientific evidence regarding the clinical outcomes, including the potential detrimental effects associated with these surgical procedures, with the aim of providing much more evidence-based information for clinical practice. METHODS An electronic search of three databases (PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase) and a manual search of relevant articles published up to May 2023 were carried out. Clinical trials (≥ 10 subjects) that utilized surgically facilitated orthodontic strategies with clinical and/or radiographic outcomes were included. Meta-analyses and sub-group analyses were performed to analyze the standardized mean difference (SMD) or weighted mean difference (WMD), and confidence interval (CI) for the recorded variables. RESULTS Nineteen studies published from Oct 2012 to May 2023 met the inclusion criteria. Based on the analysis outcomes, corticotomy treatment significantly decreased the alignment duration (WMD: -1.08 months; 95% CI = -1.65, -0.51 months, P = 0.0002), and accelerated the canine movement (WMD: 0.72 mm; 95% CI = 0.63, 0.81 mm, P < 0.00001) compared to the traditional orthodontic group. The periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontic (PAOO) strategy markedly reduced the total treatment duration (SMD: -1.98; 95% CI = -2.59, -1.37, P < 0.00001) and increased the bone thickness (SMD:1.07; 95% CI = 0.74, 1.41, P < 0.00001) compared to traditional orthodontic treatment. CONCLUSION The present study suggests that facilitated orthodontic treatment in terms of corticotomy and PAOO strategy may represent attractive and effective therapeutic strategy for orthodontic patients.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1192720. [PMID: 37425367 PMCID: PMC10326439 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1192720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The limited regenerative potential of periodontal tissue remains a challenge in orthodontic treatment, especially with respect to alveolar bone remodeling. The dynamic balance between the bone formation of osteoblasts and the bone resorption of osteoclasts controls bone homeostasis. The osteogenic effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is widely accepted, so LIPUS is expected to be a promising method for alveolar bone regeneration. Osteogenesis is regulated by the acoustic mechanical effect of LIPUS, while the cellular perception, transduction mode and response regulation mechanism of LIPUS stimuli are still unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects of LIPUS on osteogenesis by osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk and the underlying regulation mechanism. Methods: The effects of LIPUS on orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and alveolar bone remodeling were investigated via rat model by histomorphological analysis. Mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and bone marrow monocytes (BMMs) were purified and used as BMSC-derived osteoblasts and BMM-derived osteoclasts, respectively. The osteoblast-osteoclast co-culture system was used to evaluate the effect of LIPUS on cell differentiation and intercellular crosstalk by Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Alizarin Red S (ARS), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, real-time quantitative PCR, western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results: LIPUS was found to improve OTM and alveolar bone remodeling in vivo, promote differentiation and EphB4 expression in BMSC-derived osteoblasts in vitro, particularly when cells were directly co-cultured with BMM-derived osteoclasts. LIPUS enhanced EphrinB2/EphB4 interaction between osteoblasts and osteoclasts in alveolar bone, activated the EphB4 receptor on osteoblasts membrane, transduced LIPUS-related mechanical signals to the intracellular cytoskeleton, and gave rise to the nuclear translocation of YAP in Hippo signaling pathway, thus regulating cell migration and osteogenic differentiation. Conclusions: This study shows that LIPUS modulates bone homeostasis by osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk via EphrinB2/EphB4 signaling, which benefits the balance between OTM and alveolar bone remodeling.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:medicina59050987. [PMID: 37241219 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59050987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
The present article explores the benefits of combining periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) with Invisalign for optimal orthodontic treatment outcomes. PAOO is an interdisciplinary dental technique that minimizes complications and accelerates tooth movement while enhancing various orthodontic treatments. In conjunction with Invisalign, PAOO provides a discreet and comfortable solution for patients seeking to improve their smile. The study presents two challenging cases successfully treated using this combined approach, emphasizing the technique's potential to reduce treatment times and improve orthodontic outcomes. The interdisciplinary approach of PAOO ensures long-term success and stability by preserving periodontal structures and addressing potential bony defects. By incorporating bone grafting materials, PAOO helps prevent common concerns in traditional orthodontic treatments, such as bony defects and gingival recession. Furthermore, the combination with Invisalign offers a more aesthetically pleasing and comfortable treatment experience, allowing patients to maintain their self-esteem and confidence throughout the treatment. Despite the potential advantages, dental professionals must manage patient expectations and address potential complications to ensure the best possible results. Overall, the integration of PAOO and Invisalign demonstrates a viable alternative for patients who do not want to proceed with orthognathic surgery, enhancing patient satisfaction and overall treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Orthodontics and periodontics are intricately linked since adult orthodontics often implicate the periodontium. Periodontal intervention is needed throughout all phases of orthodontic treatment, from orthodontic diagnosis to mid-treatment periodontal assessment and postoperative evaluation. Invariably, periodontal health affects orthodontic success. Conversely, orthodontic tooth movements may serve as adjunctive therapy in patients with periodontal disease. This review aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the orthodontic-periodontic relationship for optimizing therapeutic strategies and achieving the best treatment outcomes in patients.

An injectable porous bioactive magnesium phosphate bone-cement foamed with calcium carbonate and citric acid for periodontal bone regeneration. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 142:105805. [PMID: 37087954 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2023.105805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/24/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023]
Abstract
Magnesium phosphate cement (MPC) has been evaluated as a novel bone substitute owing to its favorable biocompatibility, plasticity, and osteogenic potential. However, the low porosity of MPC prevents growth factors and osteoblasts from fully growing into the material, thereby limiting its clinical use. In this study, different concentrations (0-5%) of calcium carbonate and citric acid (CA) were used as foaming agents to prepare porous MPC. The MPC containing 3% CaCO3/CA exhibited the best physicochemical properties, including greater porosity, improved injectability, extended setting time, and decreased hydration temperature. The proliferation and adhesion of cells on 3%CaCO3/CA-MPC were higher than those on MPC alone. To explore its osteogenesis in vivo, 3% CaCO3/CA-MPC and Bio-Oss® bone powder were implanted into periodontal bone defects in rats for 4 weeks and 12 weeks, respectively. Micro-CT and histological analysis demonstrated the improved bone regeneration of 3%CaCO3/CA-MPC compared to the blank group (P < 0.05); it had slightly lower bone regeneration than the Bio-Oss® group but no statistical difference. The results indicated that porous MPC foamed with calcium carbonate and CA improved its physicochemical properties and enhanced its biocompatibility, making it a promising material for bone regeneration.

Front Physiol 2023; 14:1111857. [PMID: 37143931 PMCID: PMC10151543 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1111857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: This study attempts to detect the potential effects of local bone morphogenetic protein -2 (BMP-2) on orthodontic tooth movement and periodontal tissue remodeling. Methods: Forty adult SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: blank control group, unilateral injection of BMP-2 on the pressure side or tension side of orthodontic teeth and bilateral injection of BMP-2. Their maxillary first molar was moved by a 30 g constant force closed coil spring. 60 μL of BMP-2 with a concentration of 0.5 μg/mL was injected into each part at a time. In addition, three rats were selected as healthy control rats without any intervention. Fluorescent labeled BMP-2 was used to observe the distribution of exogenous BMP-2 in tissues. Micro-CT was used to measure the microscopic parameters of tooth displacement, trabecular bone and root absorption volume. Three different histological methods were used to observe the changes of tissue remodeling, and then the number of osteoclasts and the content of collagen fibers were calculated. Results: Compared with the blank control group, BMP-2 injection reduced the movement distance and increased the collagen fiber content and bone mass (p < 0.01). There was no significant difference in tooth movement distance, BV/TV ratio and BMD between injection sites in unilateral injection group (p > 0.05). In the case of bilateral injection of BMP-2, the osteogenesis is enhanced. Unilateral injection of BMP-2 did not promote root resorption, but double injection showed root resorption (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Our study does show that the osteogenesis of BMP-2 is dose-dependent rather than site-dependent when a certain amount of BMP-2 is applied around orthodontic teeth. Local application of BMP-2 around orthodontic teeth in an appropriate way can enhance bone mass and tooth anchorage without increasing the risk of root absorption volume. However, high levels of BMP-2 may cause aggressive root resorption. These findings are of great significance, that is, BMP-2 is an effective target for regulating orthodontic tooth movement.

World J Clin Cases 2022; 10:8980-8989. [PMID: 36157638 PMCID: PMC9477038 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v10.i25.8980] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2022] [Revised: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Maxillofacial deformities are skeletal discrepancies that cause occlusal, functional, and esthetic problems, and are managed by multi-disciplinary treatment, including careful orthodontic, surgical, and periodontal evaluations. However, thin periodontal phenotype is often overlooked although it affects the therapeutic outcome. Gingival augmentation and periodontal accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) can effectively modify the periodontal phenotype and improve treatment outcome. We describe the multi-disciplinary approaches used to manage a case of skeletal Class III malocclusion and facial asymmetry, with thin periodontal phenotype limiting the correction of deformity.
CASE SUMMARY A patient with facial asymmetry and weakness in chewing had been treated with orthodontic camouflage, but the treatment outcome was not satisfactory. After examination, gingiva augmentation and PAOO were performed to increase the volume of both the gingiva and the alveolar bone to allow further tooth movement. After orthodontic decompensation, double-jaw surgery was performed to reposition the maxilla-mandibular complex. Finally, implant placement and chin molding were performed to restore the dentition and to improve the skeletal profile. The appearance and function were significantly improved, and the periodontal tissue remained healthy and stable.
CONCLUSION In patients with dentofacial deformities and a thin periodontal phenotype, multi-disciplinary treatment that includes PAOO could be effective, and could improve both the quality and safety of orthodontic-orthognathic therapy.

Augmented Corticotomy on the Lingual Side in Mandibular Anterior Region Assisting Orthodontics in Protrusive Malocclusion: A Case Report. Medicina (B Aires) 2022; 58:medicina58091181.

Abstract
Adequate alveolar bone volume is a prerequisite condition for successful orthodontic tooth movement and posttreatment stability. Mandibular anterior teeth are more likely to exhibit dehiscence and fenestration in adult patients, which make orthodontic treatment in adults challenging, especially when the amount of retraction of the anterior teeth is large. Herein, we report the treatment of augmented corticotomy only on the lingual side in the mandibular anterior region to increase the volume of soft and hard tissue assisting orthodontics in a Class I bialveolar protrusive malocclusion and propose management strategies of mandibular incisor retractions. A 22-year-old female with a chief complaint of protrusive mouth presented to the Department of Orthodontics for orthodontic treatment, diagnosed with Class I bialveolar protrusive. The orthodontic treatment plan involved the extraction of four premolars and extensive retraction of the anterior teeth using microimplant anchorage. In consideration of the fenestration and dehiscence in the mandibular anterior alveolar bone and the pattern of tooth movement, augmented corticotomy was performed on the lingual side combined with bone grafting. Clinical and radiographic evaluation after treatment revealed significant improvements in the facial profile and in periodontal phenotype. Augmented corticotomy assisting orthodontic treatment could be a promising treatment strategy for adult patients with alveolar protrusion to maintain periodontal health.

Dynamic changes in tooth displacement and bone morphometry induced by orthodontic force. Sci Rep 2022; 12:13672.

Abstract
This study used a novel 3D analysis to longitudinally evaluate orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and bone morphometry. Twelve-week-old male Wistar rats were subjected to OTM by applying a constant orthodontic force (OF) of 25cN between one of the upper first molars and a mini-screw. In vivo micro-CTs were taken before and after 10, 17, 24 and 31 days of force application, and superimposed by a novel and rigid voxel-based registration method. Then the tooth and alveolar bone segment at different time points became comparable in the same coordinate system, which facilitated the analysis of their dynamic changes in 3D. By comparison between time points and between OF and no OF sides, this study showed that the OTM rate was not constant through time, but conformed to a ‘V’ shape changing pattern. Besides, OF induced displacement of both loaded and unloaded teeth, and the latter mirrored the former in a delayed manner. In addition, bone morphometric changes synchronized with OTM rate changes, implying that a higher OTM rate was concomitant with more alveolar bone loss. The pressure and tension areas might not be in two opposite sides, but actually adjacent and connected. These findings might provide instructive evidence for both clinical, translational and basic research in orthodontics.
