DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.0c01532
Abstract: Oral microbiology could directly influence overall health. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) is a highly pathogenic bacterium that causes periodontitis and other related systematic diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease. Orthodontic devices (e.g., invisalign aligner) is commonly used… read more here.

DOI: 10.1053/j.sodo.2016.10.006
Abstract: An increase in local inflammation via trans-mucosal osteo-perforations (Propel Excellerating Technology) promotes osteoclastogenesis, osteoclast recruitment and differentiation. This causes the bone to remodel faster and hence teeth move faster through the bone. In combining aligner… read more here.
