Orthodontic Iatrogenic Damage To The Periodontium

1. 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 localized gingivitis, which rarely progresses to periodontitis.

Orthodontic treatment of patients with active periodontal disease is contraindicated as the risk for further periodontal breakdown is markedly increased (Zachrisson and Alnaes, 1973; Cardaropoli and Gaveglio, 2007)


Complete evaluation of the periodontal status, especially in adult patients, is required and control of the periodontal status is necessary prior to initiation of orthodontic treatment.


Careful examination of the level of attached gingival prior to comprehensive orthodontic treatment is necessary.


The level of attached gingival is measured from the free gingival margin to the mucogingival junction minus the depth of the gingival sulcus.

Dental movement in the labio-lingual direction can be performed within the envelope of the periodontium without harmful effects on the level of attached gingiva.

If an inadequate level of attached gingiva is present prior to orthodontic treatment, a periodontic consultation should be performed, especially if labial movement of the teeth is anticipated.

Some adults develop black triangular spaces between anterior teeth. Open gingival embrasures could occur as a complication in about one third of all adult patients due to the gingival and papillary recession as a process of aging.

It should be discussed with patients before initiating ortho treatment since this may pose esthetics concerns to the patient after removal of appliances.

One of the major components of fixed orthodontic therapy is the choice of wires. Orthodontic wires are defined as devices comprising a wire conforming to the alveolar or dental arch, which is used as an anchorage for correcting irregularities in the position of teeth . Therefore, the aim of the this assignment   was to focus on the differences in the features of wires as well a...

The Concept of the Straight Wire Appliance in Orthodontics

  if you are intersted in this article please follow for more readings https://myorthodonticsblogg.blogspot.com/        👈🏻 The occlusion research (study of the non-orthodontic normals) had been launched to get a better understanding of occlusion and how it was related to the buccolabial surfaces of the crowns. There was no intention originally to produce a new appliance, but the need for one became evident.       The arising concept was to Pre-program suitable treatment into the appliance and therefore the SWA was developed. The built-in features of the SWA guide the teeth along direct vector lines, eliminating jiggling, round-tripping and other excessive movements. Andrews’s philosophy of treatment     A bracket type for each tooth type:       Since within any dentition, teeth differ from each other, therefore, each tooth would require its own bracket.    Measurements of the non-orthodo...
