| Popis: | A 32-year-old man was examined with computed tomography before and after orthodontic treatment, and alveolar bone levels at the edentulous spaces were assessed. When the computed tomography scans were compared, 2.2 to 5.2 mm of additional craniocaudal alveolar bone remodeling by bodily tooth movement was found in the space-opening region. Bodily movement was achieved with single- and crossed-lever-arm mechanics. Root resorption measuring 1 to 4 mm was observed at the mandibular anterior region, where teeth were used for anchorage to upright the molars. |
