Application of a kind of fucoidan in controlling orthodontic tooth movement

Abstract

The invention discloses application of fucoidin in orthodontic treatment. The fucoidin can restrain osteoclast formation, increase osteoblast formation, and enhance orthodontics anchorage; after orthodontics operation, the retention time can be shortened, osteogenesis is increased, the tooth positions are more stable, and relapse is lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medicine, in particular to an application of fucoidan in controlling orthodontic tooth movement. Background technique [0002] Currently, orthodontists are often plagued by problems of patient compliance, maintenance of anchorage, and lack of anchorage units, mainly because of the lack of effective anchorage devices. The cranial extraoral bow, a device used to control anchorage while requiring patient cooperation, has been used in orthodontic treatment for at least a hundred years. Although it has been used for a long time, the effect it produces can only be described as mediocre. In recent years, with the introduction of temporary anchorage devices, the overall prospects of patient compliance, anchorage protection, and simplified treatment of complex malocclusions have undergone certain changes. However, as has happened with every revolution, the learning curve for temporary anchorage devices has been ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Studies have shown that the bone density of the alveolar bone in the same alveolar space has a significant difference before and after treatment. After the end of orthodontics, it is necessary to wear a retainer to stabilize the teeth in the corrected position. Generally, at least a retainer is required. For 1 to 2 years, some patients with malocclusion even need to wear it for life, which brings great inconvenience to patients and affects both appearance and function.
