“…7,16 The effects of RAP can diminish with a decrease in tooth movement velocity over time, although the effects have been reported to last for approximately 4 months. 14,17 Elastomeric chains can be preferred for space closures. 10 Dixon et al 10 studied power chains and nickel titanium coil springs and concluded that although coil springs gave more rapid tooth movement, power chains were effective on space closure and they were a cheaper option for orthodontic treatment.…”

“…The pre-and postdistalization mobility scores and gingival indices for the canines were also evaluated and scored. The Muhleman's index was used to assess mobility in our study 14 as per the following scoring system: 0, no mobility; 1, .0.5 and ,1 mm of mobility buccolingually; 2, .1 mm and ,2 mm of mobility buccolingually; 3, .2 mm of mobility buccolingually; and 3+, both vertical and buccolingual mobility. In the current study, the Silness and Loe gingival index was used.…”

Objective: To compare the extent of canine distalization and the transversal changes, postdistalization gingival indices, and mobility scores between patients who were undergoing orthodontic treatment involving upper premolar extraction with (experimental group) or without piezocision. Materials and Methods: Twenty maxillary canines of 10 patients were evaluated with split mouth design. Pre-and postdistalization dental casts were prepared and scanned with an orthodontic scanner to compare the extent of distalization and transversal changes between the two groups. The pre-and postdistalization gingival indices and mobility scores were also calculated. Results: Three-dimensional analysis of the models revealed significant differences in tooth movement (lesser anchorage loss and greater canine distalization) between the experimental and control groups. Furthermore, the distalization time was shortened in the experimental group. There were no differences in the transversal changes, pre-and postdistalization gingival indices, or mobility scores between groups. Conclusion: Piezocision-assisted distalization accelerates tooth movement, decreases the anchorage loss for posterior teeth, and does not induce any maxillary transversal change. Moreover, piezocision does not have any adverse effects on periodontal health. (Angle Orthod. 2016;86:59-65.)

“…The tip of the tooth at the measured site was used as the reference point for these measurements. Furthermore, tooth mobility was also calculated using Muhleman's mobility index (43) as follows: 0 ϭ no mobility; 1 ϭ Ͼ0.5 and Ͻ1 mm mobility buccolingually; 2 ϭ Ͼ1 mm but Ͻ2 mm mobility buccolingually; 3 ϭ Ͼ2 mm mobility buccolingually; 3ϩ ϭ both vertical and buccolingual mobility.…”

Resolvin E1 (RvE1) is a potent proresolving mediator of inflammation derived from omega-3 eicosapentaenoic acid that acts locally to stop leukocyte recruitment and promote resolution. RvE1 displays potent counter-regulatory and tissue-protective actions in vitro and in vivo. Periodontal disease is a local inflammatory disease initiated by bacteria characterized by neutrophil-mediated tissue injury followed by development of a chronic immune lesion. In this study, we report the treatment of established periodontitis using RvE1 as a monotherapy in rabbits compared with structurally related lipids PGE2 and leukotriene B4. PGE2 and leukotriene B4 each enhanced development of periodontitis and worsened the severity of disease. Promotion of resolution of inflammation as a therapeutic target with RvE1 resulted in complete restoration of the local lesion, and reduction in the systemic inflammatory markers C-reactive protein and IL-1β. This report is the first to show that resolution of inflammation by a naturally occurring endogenous lipid mediator results in complete regeneration of pathologically lost tissues, including bone.

“…Moreover, mobility values may fluctuate during the day. 5,20 With these factors in mind, tooth mobility for ten selected control subjects was measured three times, with a 24 hour-interval between recordings, and then values were analyzed according to Dahlberg's formula. 21 As a result, the method error was low (PTV = 1.1).…”

Objective:The aim of the present study was to evaluate the changes in tooth mobility following orthodontic treatment and to obtain information regarding the guideline of retainer wear duration during the post-treatment period. Methods: The sample consisted of twenty patients who had been treated with edgewise appliances. The mobility of the maxillary teeth from the central incisor to the first molar was measured bilaterally by way of the Periotest Ⓡ , a non-invasive, electronic device that provides an objective measurement of the reaction of the periodontium to a defined impact load. Tooth mobility was monitored at the time of the removal of the orthodontic appliances and subsequently at three-month intervals during the two years following appliance removal. Results: Tooth mobility decreased rapidly for the first six months and then decreased at a slower rate during the next six months; no statistically significant decrease in mobility was observed during the second year following appliance removal. Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that adequate tooth stabilization is critical during the first six months following appliance removal and that continued wearing of retainers is recommended at least until twelve months after the completion of orthodontic treatment.
