Abstract

Background: Orthodontic treatment is closely related to the physiological changes of the pulp and periodontal tissues, with no exception to the non-vital tooth. That tooth is having significant physiological changes due to the absence of vascularisation problems, which would affect the solitary structures around the tooth. Orthodontic treatment in non vital tooth is such a challange to the dentists in determining treatment planning, it was all caused by physiology and pathology changing that might appear during or even after the orthodontic treatment. Objective: Explains about orthodontic treatment in a non vital tooth after having an endodontic treatment. Conclusion: Orthodontic treatment in a non-vital tooth showed a good prognosis because of the absence of cementoblast which is inducted by pulp vascularisation. Beside that, there are some risks that might appear after the tooth being treated by orthodontic treatment, those are pseudooverfilling, reactivation of the previous lesion, the incrase of partial/total regression, the increase of endodontic lesion, apical root resorption, ankylosis, or even dental fracture.

Abstract

Background : The mixed tooth phase is the most important phase in the growth and development of the child's teeth and jaw. Interseptive treatment is given to children who experience a mixed dental phase, starting at the age of 7-8 years because at the age of 8 year permanent molars and permanent incisors have erupted. Early malocclusion’s treatment can avoid the occurrence of malocclusion and building the confidence in patients. The 2x4 appliance is a tool that provides good stability, which is applied to the first molars and erupted incisors. Conclusion : The corrections of malocclusion do not have to wait until the eruption of all permanent teeth. Waiting for eruption all permanent teeth will aggravate malocclusion and will make the treatment harder, such as treatments that require orthodontic surgical treatment, and extraction of permanent teeth. Treatment of malocclusion at an early age (7-8 years) will ease the correction of malocclusion because it is the age of growth and development of the jaw so the treatment time will be shorter compared to conventional orthodontic treatment.

The emergence of this pain will have a major influence on the success of orthodontic treatment, given that the pain can reduce patient motivation in continuing treatment. Objective: to review the effect of orthodontic device movements on the pain caused and the factors that influence it. Method: Scientific evidence and clinical cases were drawn from the literature to support this review and information about pain perception during orthodontic treatment. Conclusion: The pain caused during orthodontic treatment is considered a normal condition because it is a biological event that is interrelated between the force exerted, local inflammation, the mechanism of action of orthodontic equipment on the teeth.

A thorough knowledge of dentocraniofacial growth and development is necessary for every dentist. From philosophies stand point, the ontology of to comprehend condition observed understanding the growth and development processes that orthodon-tics. Meanwhile epistemology, methods of studying about growth and development in orthodontic treatment has progressed a lot. Axiologically, dentists and orthodontists are heavily involved in the development of not just the dentition but the entire den-tofacial complex, a practitioner may be able to manipulate facial growth for the benefit of the patient and malocclusion treat-ment. It is not possible to do so without a thorough understanding of both the pattern of normal growth and the mechanism that underlie it.
