Reducing the duration of patient treatment is a primary goal for orthodontists.1 The development of new methods to increase the rate of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) have been sought by clinicians not only as a way to shorten treatment time, but also to reduce adverse effects such as pain, discomfort, dental caries, and periodontal disease. Additionally, shorter treatment times can minimize iatrogenic tissue damage, such as root resorption and the development of non-vital teeth.2 (Source: Archives of Oral Biology)

Mechanical weakening of devitalized teeth: three dimensional Finite Element Analysis and prediction of tooth fracture
ConclusionThe combined Finite Element Method and the Maximum Principal Stress analysis gave insight into the fracture mechanisms of teeth with two?surface composite restorations followed by root canal preparation. Removal of tooth tissue, despite its subsequent restoration with dental materials, weakened the tooth by changing the stress intensity and distribution through tooth structures. Access cavity preparation had the greatest influence on tooth strength while canal enlargement did not contribute to this process substantially.This article is protected by copyright.

Ligature?induced peri?implantitis in mice
ConclusionThis study describes a murine model of experimental peri?implantitis around screw?shaped titanium implants placed in the edentulous alveolar bone. This model should be a useful tool to dissect pathogenic mechanisms of peri?implantitis and evaluate potential treatment interventions. (Source: Journal of Periodontal Research)
