- Title
Bone Biomechanics of Tooth Movement: PDL and Periosteal Responses.
- Authors
Roberts, W. Eugene
- Abstract
The article discusses a presentation by W. Eugene Roberts at the 6th International Orthodontic Congress held in Paris, France about the biomechanics of orthodontic tooth movement. According to the lecture, specific patterns of subperiosteal bone formation and resorption are elicited by strain patterns within the supporting bone. It also explained the displacement of a tooth root within the periodontal ligament (PDL) space.
