Background and Objectives: Orthodontic tooth movement is associated with inflammatory responses. The aim of this study was to identify gingival microcirculation using laser Doppler flowmetry in patients with orthodontic treatment. Materials and Methods: A longitudinal pilot study was performed. The participants were selected using a non-probability consecutive sampling. Of the twenty-five subjects, a total of six (four women and two men) complied with the criteria. Before and during the treatment, the oral hygiene index, gingival index, probing depth, level of epithelial attachment, and gingival microcirculation were evaluated with laser Doppler flowmetry (integrated parameters: 1. integrated primary basal flow (IPBF), 2. integrated total secondary real flow (ITSRF), and 3. difference between integration (DBI)) in all of the participants). Results: (a) An increase in gingival blood flow was identified at all time intervals with different arches during orthodontic treatment. (b) The IPBF and ITSRF (with treatment) identified after 20 min (treatment initial stage) were compared with the different time intervals, and we observed an increase in gingival perfusion at the 24th, 48th, and 72nd hours in some arches. (c) In the DBI, we found statistically significant differences (p < 0.005) in the Nitinol group of 0.016 inches among all the time intervals (24 h, 48 h, and 72 h) within the 30-day interval, observing a flow increase three times greater than the basal flow after 30 days. Conclusions: Healthcare professionals must identify the inflammatory processes in treatment to observe and discontinue use of harmful methods in clinical practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
