【 摘 要 】

Severe periodontal disease is one of the most common oral diseases, as well as malocclusions, which are very frequent anomalies. It has been widely discussed if orthodontic treatment is injurious for periodontal tissues, due to an increase in dental plaque and a change in oral microflora. Factors that allow the evaluation of a patient’s susceptibility have been suggested, along with some preventive measures that need to be considered during orthodontic treatment in periodontal patients. It is critical for orthodontists to take into consideration the patients’ susceptibility to suffer periodontal disease, taking the necessary measures during the orthodontic treatment to minimize dental plaque retention.
