This book was released on 2017 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of mechanical vibration on pain experienced and rate of tooth movement (OTM) during the initial alignment phase of orthodontic treatment. Materials and Methods: Participants were randomly allocated to control, low frequency or high frequency. An electric toothbrush was modified to provide high frequency vibration. A low frequency vibration device was acquired from a commercial vendor. Experimental groups applied vibration to the dentition for 20 minutes daily. All participants completed questionnaires using visual analog scales at five time points. Pain experience was measured in millimeters (mm) with the scale measuring 100 mm in length, left hand side at 0 mm. Rate of alignment was assessed using an Irregularity Index of mandibular incisors correlated to days until full alignment of the lower arch. Results: High frequency vibration participants reported significantly less pain at 4 hours compared to low frequency participants (p=0.0460). No other significant differences for pain were found. Participants who received low frequency vibration with a higher initial irregularity aligned significantly slower than control participants (p=0.0107). No other significant differences in rate of alignment were found. Conclusions: Mechanical vibration significantly reduced the pain experience for the high frequency vibration participants compared to low frequency vibration participants at one of five time points (4 hours) during the first week of orthodontic treatment. Mean alignment rates did not significantly differ between treatment groups. Participants who received low frequency vibration with high initial irregularity aligned significantly slower compared to control participants.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of LIPUS on orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) has been studied before, but there is a big controversy over the role of LIPUS on the rate of OTM. Also the mechanism of this process is largely unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of different intensities of LIPUS on OTM, as well as anabolic and catabolic properties on the bone. For this reason 24 animals were randomly divided into four groups, and on each group different intensities of LIPUS were applied (control, 15 mW/cm2, 30 mW/cm2, and 50 mW/cm2 groups). All animals received orthodontic appliance and tooth movement on the right side of the maxilla, and left side was used as control. A combination of micro-CT analysis, TRAP staining and immunohistochemistry was used to analyze and compare the rate of tooth movement, bone density, osteoclastic activity and bone markers between the four groups. Our results showed the rate of tooth movement changes depending on the intensity of ultrasound. There was a significant increase in the rate of tooth movement in 30 mW/cm2 group compared to 15 and 50 mW/cm2. Osteoclasts number was increased in 30 group compared to 50 and 15 mW/cm2, and also expression of important paracrine factors detected, such as VEGF and PGE2, varied based on the intensity. In conclusion OTM changes with using LIPUS. These changes in OTM happen through series of biological reactions controlling PGE2 and VEGF expression as well as osteoclast numbers in response to the force. LIPUS has an application in clinical orthodontics for acceleration or retention purposes.

Download or read book Ehlers Danlos Syndrome A Multidisciplinary Approach written by J.W.G. Jacobs and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generalized hypermobility has been known since ancient times, and a clinical description of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is said to have first been recorded by Hippocrates in 400 BC. Hypermobility syndromes occur frequently, but the wide spectrum of possible symptoms, coupled with a relative lack of awareness and recognition, are the reason that they are frequently not recognized, or remain undiagnosed. This book is an international, multidisciplinary guide to hypermobility syndromes, and EDS in particular. It aims to create better awareness of hypermobility syndromes among health professionals, including medical specialists, and to be a guide to the management of such syndromes for patients and practitioners. It is intended for use in daily clinical practice rather than as a reference book for research or the latest developments, and has been written to be understandable for any healthcare worker or educated patient without compromise to the scientific content. The book is organized as follows: chapters on classifications and genetics are followed by chapters on individual types, organ (system) manifestations and complications, and finally ethics and therapeutic strategies, with an appendix on surgery and the precautions which should attend it. A special effort has been made to take account of the perspective of the patient; two of the editors have EDS. The book will be of interest to patients with hypermobility syndromes and their families, as well as to all those healthcare practitioners who may encounter such syndromes in the course of their work.
Download or read book Biology of Orthodontic Tooth Movement written by Bhavna Shroff and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-30 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the current knowledge and understanding of the biological processes involved in the orthodontic movement of teeth and discusses recent progress in the field. It links research advances to their immediate clinical applications and offers researchers and clinicians a state of the art reference on topical issues relating to orthodontic tooth movement. Biological events play a central role in the movement of teeth during orthodontic therapy. The basis for understanding the sequence of cellular events that leads to orthodontic movement has been well established in the literature through the use of animal models. In recent years, researchers and clinicians have focused their efforts on developing treatment modalities to increase the speed of orthodontic treatment and provide better anchorage options for noncompliant patients. This book will be an invaluable aid in understanding the biology of tooth movement and the relevance of the latest concepts to clinical practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: :Written by a broad spectrum of dental, medical and basic science researchers from around the world, this book presents state-of-the-art knowledge concerning the biology of connective tissues and their response to exogenous mechanical stimulation at the cell biology level. The text goes well beyond the traditional morphologic descriptions of tooth movement, covering the cell biology of the connective tissues involved, the various in vitro and in vivo research models, possible pharmacological means of influencing tissue responses, and biophysical considerations. Many cellular events that occur during tooth movement are discussed, as well as the exciting challenges, unanswered questions and possibilities in the future. This publication is extremely relevant to the work of dental specialists in orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, and periodontics plus orthopeadists and basic scientists working in connective tissue research.
