yes as long as it's not active (like it's been stable in the last few years) AND the invisalign clincheck needs minimize the movements on those teeth , no proclination no round-tripping- if you need help with a plan you can schedule a session at www.straightsmilesolutions.com/services
My orthodontist never showed me my x-rays or discussed them with me. Braces came off in 2013. This year I had my first panoramic dental xray since then and one tooth has zero roots left, lol. I have no idea if it was like this when i finished braces or if this happened in the 10 years that passed.
Sorry to hear this- same thing happened to me. And since it's been 10+ years you won't have access to the initial or final records. Hey you might be ok just be careful!
What if teeth were okay before the ortho treatment, but the ortho treatment has led to some degree of Ortho Induced Inflammatory root resorption, what's the treatment for that? Do we do any treatment or do we just monitor?
@@Straightsmilesolutions Thank you so much for your advice. I'm a little confused as to what role will endo have to play here since it's not pulpal in origin.
DA here. Hit too hard on my anteriors, hardly any posterior bite. Resorption on 11 is that to where it is the same length of my centrals. Pretty short. Is there a way to still do ortho and keep that tooth stabilized? Where my head is at, it may be worth losing that tooth to fix everything else.
Just an update. Doing traditional braces and able to do so because my teeth are straight, bite just needs to be corrected. Hopefully i get braces off in a year with all my roots intact.
What happens when root resorption was happening under the orthodontic care, but they didn't catch it? nor did yearly x-rays with the braces on? Because I noticed I have severe root resorption.
OOOHHH - kinda a grey area. On one hand it's something that would be covered in your inform consent. On the other hand if it's severe and the doctor didn't notice or catch it and remove your braces earlier it could be an issue for the doctor if you made a compliant
My teeth were good ,only problem that i had was gap , after braces , minor gap is still there but now my upper central incisor's root is resorbed and a bit loose 😓 , which retainer would be good for me ? Permanent or transparent?
I wish I could give that recommendation but I think you need to visit: an endodontist, a general dentist and an orthodontist. There's a lot of variables that need to be considered here so that team of 3 doctors needs to make your recommendation
In cases where there are root resorption, would it be okay to treat only the arch that does not have any? I had a pano taken and my front four lower teeth do have resorption and I only care about closing the gap between my front two teeth. It sounds to me from your video that any progression of resorption in treatment will discontinue treatment.
Hey sir.. I am from pakistan.. I have my 2nd orthodontic treatment.. I have protruded teeth and obviously for this they have to extract my 1st premolars to make space.. But i have root resorption in some of my teeth.. I am worried about it,,, whether i should go for extraction or continue my braces treatment without extraction?
I am a female but yes you should get more opinions. For sure for root resorption cases, I would ask an endodontist and also consider aligners over braces
My orthodontist took the "do no harm approach" and refuses to continue. He's worried about wiggly incisors but if he doesn't move the teeth, I will have to get them pulled and replaced with implants or go back for a second jaw surgery to correct my malloclusion. So for now, I can't chew without crashing my incisors together because my orthodontist is unwilling to recognize the fact that inaction will perpetuate more harm than action would could cause. The 40deg proclination on my uppers and 30deg inclination on my lowers makes them nearly unusable anyway. If I pull them, at least I can close my mouth. If I dont, then cyclic loading between everyday use flexing them and then my retainers bringing them back will encourage resorption longterm anyway. He has already done harm in bringing to this point thru his treatment and now refuses to mitigate the error in fears of causing more harm. My mouth is so fubar that I want to pull out my front teeth. I'm 25 so the inconvenience of a pulled incisor pales in comparison to a lifetime of being unable to chew anything more than soft foods without hurting myself.
I’m a progress patient myself. Currently on invisalign. 1 year in. My ortho told me we’d be stopping treatment for 3 months since our first progress xrays revealed bone loss. When you discuss sending a patient with moderate bone loss and/or root resorption. Hereditary or otherwise, will they be better off seeing a periodontist or endodontist for a baseline? You mention endo, but I’ve also been looking at seeing a perio. I have been trying to discern which specialist is better at being a secondary doctor that helps to monitor my orthodontic treatment.
YOur General Dentist should be the one who decides and facilitates this but usually a periodontist if it's bone loss and an endodontist if it involves root resorption
Is there something that can help prevent it from the roots shortening ? I freaked out when my dentist told me me some of teeth have short roots and can become loose 🥲
What are the actual chances of teeth with shorts roots coming out if braces are put on them?
Seen it many many many times and it happened to ME personally
@@Straightsmilesolutions is there anyway to prevent it? And what is done in this situation?
My lower front 2 teeth has short root than the other teeth and i have some minor bone loss can i get braces ?

Do you think mild to moderate root shortening is okay to go ahead with comprehensive Invisalign?
yes as long as it's not active (like it's been stable in the last few years) AND the invisalign clincheck needs minimize the movements on those teeth , no proclination no round-tripping- if you need help with a plan you can schedule a session at www.straightsmilesolutions.com/services
@@Straightsmilesolutions what if that’s the teeth that needs moving in order to get a straight smile? It’s half rotated

I often loop perio and endo in to that conversation but similar methods - monitor and discontinue Tx if it progresses

@@priyankbhutoria1671 any kind of root resorption should be referred to endo... only they can rule that out

Of course- with aligners you can do that- ask your doctor if you can do it!
@@Straightsmilesolutions this gave me hope. I go next week and will try and check back in for anyone else in a similar situation.

yes of course that's fine
If you have concerns, best to visit a local orthodontist in your area for a second (or third) opinion. Nothing wrong with that
I had extreme root resorption for my upper laterals and ended up having to get them removed and I got the space closed up!
Oh noooo!
