Under pressure-mechanisms and risk factors for orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The application of orthodontic forces causes root resorption of variable severity with potentially severe clinical ramifications.

Objective

To systematically review reports on the pathophysiological mechanisms of orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR) and the associated risk factors based on in vitro, experimental, and in vivo studies.

Search methods

We undertook an electronic search of four databases and a separate hand-search.

Selection criteria

Studies reporting on the effect of orthodontic forces with/without the addition of potential risk factors on OIIRR, including (1) gene expression in in-vitro studies, the incidence root resorption in (2) animal studies, and (3) human studies.
