It is the loss of calcified tooth substance due to the attack by acidic-by-products of plaque metabolism. An early recognition is sentient to prevent permanent damage. Occurrences during active treatment necessitate a shortened treatment plan or in severe cases; early termination of treatment. The increase in food stagnation and increase in the retentive sites of bacteria lead to a change in the microflora (low Ph environment). Decalcification may occur within one month due to : Prolonged accumulation of plaque next to the bracket . White Spot Lesions caused by the decalcification process can be distinguished from the developmental hypocalcified lesions on the basis of location, shape, and dimensional stability with ti...

Periodontal disease and orthodontic treatment : Periodontal disease includes gingivitis, alveolar bone loss (periodontitis), and loss of attached gingival support. The periodontal reaction toward orthodontic appliances depends on multiple factors, such as: - Host resistance - The presence of systemic conditions - The amount and composition of dental plaque. - Lifestyle factors, including smoking, can also compromise periodontal support and the negative effects of uncontrolled diabetes on periodontal support.  Bacteria present in dental plaque are the primary causative agent of periodontal disease . Orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances is known to induce an increase in the volume of dental plaque. However, fixed orthodontic appliances cause a shift in the type of bacteria . Therefore, fixed orthodontic treatment may result in localiz...

In early 2018, EnvisionTEC Inc. announced launch of E-Ortholign, a new material for the direct 3D printing of clear thermoformed aligners . This clear resin is marketed as biocompatible, stable, flexible and strong material for the direct 3D printing of esthet...
