内容説明

The interface between periodontology and orthodontics is as broad as any between two disciplines in clinical dentistry. Controlled tooth movements utilize the dynamic nature of the periodontium which remodels actively when external forces are applied. Periodontal tissues are continually at risk from plaque-induced diseases that compromise the support of the dentition. The accumulation of plaque is enhanced when patients wear orthodontic appliances and the dental hygienist has a vital role to play before, during and after orthodontic treatment. Changes in tooth relationships are often a consequence of periodontal disease. When the condition has been controlled orthodontic treatment may be indicated to, for example, align drifted incisors, or to upright molars that have tipped into extraction spaces. The aim of this book is to explore fully the interrelationships between the periodontium in both health and disease, and orthodontics. The text examines the common ground upon which the orthodontist and periodontist are often called upon to meet and collaborate on cases that demand multi-disciplinary care. The authors hope that this book will serve as a helpful volume for all specialists in the periodontal and orthodontic disciplines. It is also directed towards postgraduate students and practitioners with a special interest in these subjects. This book is intended for all specialists in the orthodontic and periodontal disciplines; also interested postgraduate students and practitioners.
