However, after a period of maintenance, correction and reconstruction after orthodontic treatment, the alveolar bone around the teeth will return to its previous stable state. Effect on dental pulp: At the initial stage of orthodontics, the dental pulp has a mild and temporary inflammatory reaction, which shows that the patient feels pain or discomfort in the first few days after exertion, but the experiment proves that this effect has no clinical significance. Orthodontics has little effect on dental pulp.
Influence on the root: During the orthodontic process, the surface of the root also undergoes the reconstruction activities of absorption and proliferation.
