A Critical Appraisal of the Biological Assessment of Materials in Orthodontics with Emphasis on the Differences Between Conventional and 3-D Cell Cultures

Abstract

In this report, we look in a different way at a patient in need for an orthodontic treatment. Current biomedical literature seeks to link clinical orthodontics with mainstream molecular-genetic research. The demands of professionalism require the orthodontist to be conversant with all biological principles underlying treatment. Such knowledge leads to better patient care.
