Psychosocial stress plays an important role in periodontal disease through biological and
behavioral pathways. In this paper we review studies that examine the relationship between …

OBJECTIVE: This review is intended to highlight and discuss discrepancies in the literature
of the periodontal ligament's (PDL) mechanical properties and the various analytical models …

Objectives The aim of the present systematic review was to offer a timeline of the events
taking place during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Materials and methods Electronic …

Periodontal ligament (PDL) tissue, central in the periodontium, plays crucial roles in
sustaining tooth in the bone socket. Irreparable damages of this tissue provoke tooth loss …

A 22-year-old man with severe periodontitis and pathologic tooth migration sought
orthodontic treatment. He was treated successfully with effective control of the strength and …

The periodontal ligament (PDL) is a highly vascularized connective tissue surrounding the
root of a tooth. In particular, the PDL is continuously exposed to mechanical stresses during …

Objective: To determine the effect of labiolingual inclination of a maxillary central incisor on
the magnitude and distribution of stresses within the periodontal space. Materials and …

Deoxypyridinoline (DPD) and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) have been
regarded as systemic determinants of bone remodelling. Owing this fact, this study aimed to …

Introduction In this study, we aimed to explore the expressions of α-smooth muscle actin,
collagen type I, collagen type III, and osteocalcin in the periodontal ligament (PDL) under …

An alteration in stress/strain distribution within periodontal ligament (PDL) occurs when the
tooth is mechanical stimulated in orthodontic treatment. The majority of previous finite …
