The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is any difference in orthodontic
tooth movement when the orthodontic force is applied at different times of the day. Twenty …

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there are any differences in tooth
movement or in the response of periodontal tissue to orthodontic force when the force is …

Both the amount of force applied and the duration of the application affect tooth movement.
To study the effect of duration, adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were fitted with orthodontic …

A method for the quantification of orthodontic tooth movement in the rat is presented.
Reliability, sensitivity, and validity were assessed and tooth movement kinetics were …

The relationship between the magnitude of a constant continuous orthodontic force and rate
of bodily tooth movement was studied. In 25 young adult male beagle dogs, lower third …

In orthodontics, no consensus exists on how to move teeth most efficiently. The aim of the
present study was to investigate the effect of two different force regimes and two different …

A single orthodontic activation lasting one hour can initiate tooth movement. The purpose of
this study is to examine tooth movement, osteoclasts, and root resorption in rats following …

Aim: To examine the effects of inactive periods of force on the amount of tooth displacement
and root resorption during experimental tooth movement in rats. Sample: Sixty 11-week-old …

In vitro tooth movement of rat molars in response to an orthodontic force was recorded using
a time-lapse videotape recorder and analysed by a computer system. Rats received daily sc …

Aim: To investigate light forces for experimental tooth movement. Method: Light orthodontic
forces of 1.2, 3.6, 6.5, and 10 g force (gf) were applied for 14 days to move rat molars, and …
