Summary
This study shows how removable occlusional dentures impact alveolar bone and jaw position in adults undergoing orthodontic treatment. The findings are relevant for understanding denture effects on dental and skeletal structures.
Area of Science:
- Dentistry
- Orthodontics
- Prosthodontics
Background:
- Dentition deformation presents complex orthodontic challenges.
- Removable occlusional dentures are used in treating various dental conditions.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the effects of removable occlusional dentures on dentition deformation treatment.
- To assess the impact on alveolar bone and mandibular position.
Main Methods:
- Orthodontic treatment of 39 patients (aged 19-48 years).
- Analysis of removable occlusional denture influence on dental and skeletal structures.
Main Results:
- The denture affected teeth-free alveolar bone.
- Transposed teeth's underlying bone also showed changes.
- Mandibular position was influenced by the denture.
Conclusions:
- Removable occlusional dentures have multifaceted effects beyond tooth movement.
- Treatment considerations should include potential skeletal and bone changes.
- Further research into denture-induced biomechanics is warranted.
