With advances in materials and techniques, the orthodontic treatment and its results have become more predictable and stable. But still orthodontic treatment is not without risk. Root resorption continues to be one of the most exasperating and least understood of the clinical problems in orthodontics. Why, in the treatment of apparently similar cases, treated in the same manner, do we see considerable variation in the extent and distribution of root resorption.Apical root resorption is one of the most common iatrogenic problems associated with orthodontic treatment.It appears that no clinician is able to avoid this problem completely. Consequently, a great deal of research has been published on this topic, particularly research undertaken from a clinical point of view. However, much controversy exists concerning its cause and predisposing factors. One important question of interest to orthodontists is, once root resorption has begun will it continue after active treatment is terminated? Several clinical studies have been conducted relative to this question.This book covers the various aspects of apical root resorption in orthodontics.
