Opis

Hormones are tiny chemical messengers located inside of our body. Different hormones perform specific roles inside of our body. Some of these hormones work quickly to start or stop a process, and some will continually work over the course of a long period of time to perform their necessary jobs. On the other hand, the biology of orthodontic tooth movement comprises the study of cellular, biochemical and molecular phenomena occurring in the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. The bone remodeling that occurs in the orthodontic movement is a dynamic process requiring coordinated cellular activities between osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteoclasts, in order to maintain the mineral tissue homeostasis. All these activities are regulated by chemical mediators, of cellular and plasmatic origin mainly hormones.
