Abstract

  This article aims to provide the basic understanding of the interrelationship between orthodontic mechanotherapy in periodontally compromised situations for a complete update on the most recent view regarding the same in the best interest of the patients. While past studies have shown that orthodontic treatment can positively affect the periodontal health, recent reviews indicate an absence of reliable evidence for the positive effects of orthodontic therapy on patients’ periodontal status[1].
