Course Description
The aim of this course is to reveal the basic biomechanical principles of tooth movements, which form the basis of orthodontic treatments. For this purpose, bone response to normal function, role of the periodontal ligament in eruption and stabilization of the teeth, bone response to sustained force, effects of force distrubition and duration are taught. The histological changes that occur in the bone during tooth movement will be examined. During tooth movement, osteoclast formation and direct bone resorption, osteoblast formation and bone apposition, remodeling events, periodontal ligament structure and changes in this structure are examined. It will be clarified how the direction and shape of the forces to be applied during the treatment should be planned at the beginning of the treatment.
