Abstract:
Uprighting and extrusion are two movements that are used to aid in the treatment of difficult periodontal and restorative problems. Simple appliances can be used to alter tooth position, enhancing either the periodontal therapy, restorative dentistry, or both. Treatment time can be limited to 3 to 6 months.
