Bone Remodeling01:40

Bone Remodeling

39.3K
Bone remodeling is a continuous and balanced process of bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. In adults, it helps maintain bone mass and calcium homeostasis. While mechanical stress can stimulate turnover as part of the normal maintenance and reparative process, several hormones also regulate bone remodeling.

Area of Science:

  • Orthodontics
  • Craniofacial growth modification

Background:

  • Functional appliances like Frankel regulators and twin blocks are standard for guiding jaw growth.
  • Frankel regulators facilitate orofacial expansion, while twin blocks correct mandibular retrusion.

Observation:

  • A novel appliance, the Twinkle R 3D, was developed to integrate both passive and active expansion.
  • This appliance aims to achieve sagittal correction and alleviate constricted musculature simultaneously.

Findings:

  • The Twinkle R 3D appliance demonstrated successful simultaneous sagittal correction and orofacial expansion.
  • Simultaneous passive and active expansion within a single appliance yielded positive results.

Implications:

  • The Twinkle R 3D appliance offers a promising new option for clinicians treating complex orthodontic cases.
  • This integrated approach may enhance treatment efficiency and effectiveness in managing specific craniofacial growth patterns.
