Evidence suggests that orthodontic treatment causes an increased incidence and severity of apical root resorption. Tooth length and root volume were reduced after orthodontic intervention. Numerous ...

Root resorption is a well-documented adverse outcome that may occur during orthodontic treatment, where a portion of the tooth root is lost as a result of applied mechanical forces. Although often ...

Background: Orthodontic treatment can result in root resorption (RR). Traditional two-dimensional (2D) data exhibit magnification, deformation and positioning problems. Cone beam computed tomography ...
