Abstract
The relation between orthodontic forces applied to deciduous teeth and the occurrence of root resorp-tion, as a possible outcome of these forces, has not been studied to date. The aim of this work was to study root resorption in deciduous teeth of patients receiving orthodontic treatment. Twenty-four deciduous molars extracted for therapeutic purposes were studied: nineteen molars treated with light orthodontic forces and five untreated molars that served as control. Histological and histomorphome-tric studies were performed to determine the magnitude of root resorption. Location of root resorption in treated deciduous teeth was different from that of physiological root resorption. Extent and volume of root resorption were more extensive and deeper in treated than in untreated teeth. These results sug-gest that radiographic follow-up of deciduous teeth subjected to orthodontic forces would be useful to prevent root fractures.
