Radiological features of central haemangioma of the jaws.
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiological and clinical features of central haemangioma of the jaws. METHODS: A total of 86 cases (84 from the English-language literature and two new cases) were studied and critically evaluated with emphasis on the radiological features. RESULTS: Age at time of initial diagnosis ranged from 0 to 74 years (mean 23 years, median 17 years). There was approximately equal distribution between females and males. The ratio between the mandible and maxilla was 3.3:1. Of the lesions, 69% were located in the posterior region of the jaws. Lesions were radiolucent in 96% of cases. Of the lesions, 66% were multilocular, 33% unilocular, and 1% not loculated. Borders were described in 41 cases, as well defined in 32% and diffuse in 68%. Tooth resorption was described in 23% of the lesions and tooth displacement in 16%, both more common in the mandible. The inferior alveolar nerve canal was involved in 15% of the mandibular lesions and the sinus in 35% of the maxillary lesions. CONCLUSIONS: Central haemangioma has a marked variability in its radiological appearance and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of many unilocular or multilocular radiolucent lesions of the jaws, especially in the mandible. Some radiographic patterns, such as the spoke-like and sunray appearance frequently described in the literature, are actually extremely rare.
Does an impacted tooth cause root resorption of the adjacent one?
External root resorption caused by an adjacent impacted tooth was studied radiographically in 199 cases. Resorption of the root had occurred in fifteen instances (7.5 per cent), the cervical region being least affected. The incidence was highest in the 21 to 30-year-old group and mainly involved male patients. Resorption of the periodontium alone was found in sixteen additional patients; of these, five were followed for 1 year after extraction of the impacted tooth. During this period, the damaged periodontium was completely re-established.
Inhibitory effect of the topical administration of a bisphosphonate (risedronate) on root resorption incident to orthodontic tooth movement in rats.
Root resorption associated with tooth movement is an unsolved problem in orthodontics. If such root resorption could be prevented, it would be an important contribution toward reducing risk factors in orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the topical administration of a bisphosphonate, risedronate, which is known to be a potent blocker of bone resorption, on root resorption during tooth movement and on the repair of the resorbed root surface after tooth movement in rats. In the first experiment, both the right and left upper first molars were moved buccally with a standardized expansion spring under administration of risedronate. After day 7, extensive root resorption had occurred on the control side, and the area of root resorption reached a maximum on day 14. The topical administration of risedronate caused a significant and dose-dependent inhibition of root resorption after the orthodontic force was applied. In the second experiment, the right and left upper molars were first moved buccally for 3 weeks. Risedronate treatment began on the day the spring was removed. After the force was withdrawn, the resorbed root surfaces on both the control and risedronate-treated sides were gradually restored by apposition of repair cementum (cementoid). The topical administration of risedronate did not appear to inhibit the repair process of root resorption. These results suggest that the topical administration of risedronate may be useful in preventing root resorption of teeth during orthodontic treatment.
The relationship between apical root resorption and orthodontic tooth movement in growing subjects.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between apical root resorption and orthodontic tooth movement in growing subjects. METHODS: 58 growing subjects were collected randomly into the study sample and another 40 non-treated cases were used as control. The apical resoption of the upper central incisors was measured on periapical film and the incisor displacement was measured on lateral cephalogram. Using multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationship between root resoption and the displacement of the upper incisor apex in each of four direction (retraction, advancement, intrusion and extrusion). RESULTS: The statistically significant negative association were found between resorption and both intrusion (P < 0.001) and extrusion (P < 0.05), but no significant association was found between resorption and both retraction and advancement. The regression analysis implied an average of 2.29 mm resorption in the absence of apical displacement. CONCLUSIONS: The likelihood that the magnitude of displacement of the incisor root is positively associated with root resoption in the population of treated growing subjects is very small.
Pulp-dentine complex changes and root resorption during intrusive orthodontic tooth movement in patients prescribed nabumetone.
Pulpitis, external root resorption, and pain may be experienced during orthodontic movement. The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been suggested to control these changes. The purpose of this study was to observe pulp-dentinal reactions, root resorption, tooth pain, and tooth movement after the application of a 4-ounce intrusive orthodontic force to human maxillary first premolars in patients given the NSAID nabumetone. Thirty-four maxillary first premolars were evaluated. A placebo was prescribed to 17 patients after an intrusive force was activated and reactivated for an 8-week period on the right side. The same procedure was repeated on the left side after patients were given nabumetone. Pulp-dentinal reactions and external root resorption were evaluated by histology. Pain and movement were also evaluated. Nabumetone was found to be useful in reducing pulpitis, external root resorption, and pain caused by intrusive orthodontic movement, without altering tooth movement in response to the application of orthodontic force.
Sympathectomy causes increased root resorption after orthodontic tooth movement in rats: immunohistochemical study.
Accumulating evidence suggests that the sympathetic nervous system modulates inflammatory responses and bone remodeling. We have studied the effects of sympathectomy and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) on root resorption, immunocompetent cell recruitment, neuropeptide, neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1-R), and interleukin 6 (IL-6) expression. Experimental rats (n=8) had the right superior cervical ganglion surgically removed, whereas control rats (n=6) underwent sham surgery. Three days later, all rats had the right maxillary first molar moved mesially by an orthodontic appliance. The rats were perfused 13 days later, and the right maxillae were processed for immunohistochemistry by using primary antibodies directed against ED1 antigen, CD43, substance P (SP), NK1-R, neuropeptide Y (NPY), and IL-6. Following OTM, sympathectomized (SCGx) rats had significantly more root resorption (P<0.01) and SP-immunoreactive (IR) fibers (P=0.01) in the compressed periodontal ligament (PDL) compared with control rats. There was a significant decrease in recruitment of CD43+ cells in the pulp after OTM in SCGx rats compared with control rats (P=0.02). An upregulation of NK1-R immunoreactivity was observed surrounding the hyalinized tissue, and an increase in the number of NK1-R IR cells and density of SP-IR fibers was present in first molar pulp of all rats. NPY-IR fibers were absent in the compressed PDL of SCGx and control rats. Thus, OTM induces remodeling not only around the periodontal tissues, but also in the dental pulp. The sympathetic nerves have an inhibitory effect on hard tissue resorption and a stimulatory effect on CD43+ cell recruitment after OTM.
[Physiology and pharmacology of hard tissues--effect of chemicals on the formation and the resorption mechanism of tooth and bone].
This review described the effects of several drugs on the formation and the resorption mechanism of tooth and bone. The enamel formed during high fluoride exposure showed marked hypocalcification, and the organic substances appeared on the incisors in these regions. Such changes following fluoride administration appear to indicate an inhibition of the mineral deposition and/or an inhibition of organic matrix withdrawal. The successive bisphosphonate (HEBP) injections reduced both the progress of the mineral deposition and the formation of the enamel matrix. Colchicine showed a remarkable inhibitory effect on the matrix-forming cells of the dentin and enamel in teeth through its striking inhibitory action on the cytoskeletal system and secretary function. The dentin formation in rabbit and rat incisor dentin was reduced markedly. Colchicine induced reparative dentinogenesis in dental pulp and ectopic calcification in the bone marrow. Both sodium salicylate and aspirin reduced dentin formation through a mechanism that reduces the incorporation of collagen precursors into odontoblasts. Sodium salicylate also inhibited the growth of the upper jaw and tibia in rats. The recruitment of osteoclast-like multinucleated cells was inhibited by sodium salicylate in vitro. A pharmacological approach for studying the formation and resorption mechanism of hard tissue is useful tool for developing hard tissue research.
