Effect of incisal loading during orthodontic treatment in adults:A randomized control trial.

CONCLUSIONS: Biting exercises significantly increased bone thickness but did not affect tooth mobility, bone height, or density. The RANKL/OPG ratio decreased 1 month after treatment (T2) and correlated with increased bone thickness. ( ClinicalTrials.in.th TCTR20170625001). PMID: 29099236 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
