RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: The main objective of this review was to evaluate the effects of orthodontic intrusion on patients with reduced periodontium. Additionally, this review aims to explore the potential for attachment gain and tissue regeneration in these patients and identify optimal therapeutic conditions to mitigate any negative effects of intrusion. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA 2020 statement. Duplicate electronic searches of the PubMed, Cochrane, EMC Premium, and Science Direct databases were performed by two independent reviewers. Data extraction and quality assessments, including risk of bias evaluation using the Cochrane and ROBINS-I tools were conducted. RESULTS: From an initial pool of 418 articles, 29 were selected after title and abstract screening for full-text review. Following thorough full-text reading, 15 studies were ultimately included in the analysis. The total number of patients included in the studies is 528, who underwent orthodontic intrusion on reduced periodontium. Studies indicated a decrease in periodontal pocket depth and an increase in clinical attachment with ortho-periodontal treatment. Alveolar bone level outcomes varied, showing both increases and losses. Authors generally observed improved papillary regeneration and reduced gingival recessions. CONCLUSION: Clinical studies involving combined ortho-periodontal treatment showed that orthodontic intrusion on a reduced but healthy periodontium can be considered a beneficial treatment for the periodontium, provided that potential adverse effects are carefully monitored.

BACKGROUND: The main objective of this review is to assess the effectiveness and predictability of the transverse expansion movement performed by Invisalign®. The secondary objectives are to determine whether the expansion is of a dentoalveolar or skeletal nature, and to locate the areas of expansion on the dental arch. METHODS: Two investigators used the PubMed database to search for articles related to the subject. After using a research equation, specific inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied and the final selection of articles was done after being read in full. The ROBINS-I tool for non-randomized studies was applied to assess risk of bias in the results of each included study. RESULTS: After reading the articles in full, 12 articles were included. Regarding effectiveness, most studies showed an increase in all measured interdental distances, with a maximum expansion at the premolar level. As for predictability, significant differences were found between post-treatment models and Clincheck® models, making it generally weak. Concerning the nature and areas of expansion, increase of arch width was due to buccal tipping of the crowns following a decreasing gradient from anterior to posterior. CONCLUSIONS: Invisalign® treatment is effective in achieving a maxillary transverse expansion. However, this expansion is mainly dentoalveolar, with a facial crown tipping of the posterior teeth. Clincheck® software tends to overestimate the expansion movement when compared to the clinical outcome, therefore the predictability of movement is low.
