Human interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist secretion and velocity of tooth movement.

The cytokines interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) probably play a part in orthodontic tooth movement. Here, the force magnitudes and the area of force application in the compressed periodontal ligament (PDL) were controlled and the velocity of tooth movement correlated with concentrations of IL-1 beta and IL-1RA in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). Seven individuals undergoing orthodontic treatment involving maxillary first premolar extractions and distal movement (bodily retraction) of the maxillary canines participated in the 84-day study. For each participant, continuous retraction forces were applied so that they received equivalent PDL stresses of 13 kPa for one canine and 4 kPa for the other. GCF cytokine concentrations from experimental and control teeth were expressed relative to total protein in the GCF and compared using an 'Activity Index' (AI)=Experimental (IL-1 beta/IL-1RA)/Control (IL-1 beta/IL-1RA). The results showed that the velocity of tooth movement in an individual was related to their AI. The correlation between AI and tooth movement was stronger from the distal (R(d)=0.78) than from the mesial (R(m)=0.65) of retracted teeth. The results demonstrate that equivalent force systems produce individual differences in cytokine production, which correlate with interindividual differences in the velocity of canine retraction.

Root canal treatment in mandibular canines with two roots: a report of two cases.

AIM: To highlight anatomical variation in the mandibular canine. SUMMARY: Two clinical case reports are presented to illustrate anatomical variation in the human mandibular canine. Endodontic treatment may sometimes fail because morphological features of the tooth adversely affect the treatment procedures. Many investigators have reported the anatomical variations associated with mandibular canines. Mandibular canines are recognized as usually having one root and one root canal in most cases, although approximately 15% may have two canals or sometimes two roots. This paper describes two clinical cases of mandibular canines with two roots and two canals. KEY LEARNING POINTS: Failure to control infection in the root canal system has an adverse impact on outcome. Clinicians should be aware of anatomical variations in the teeth they are managing, and should never assume that canal systems are simple. The majority of mandibular canines have one root and root canal, but 15% may have two canals, and a smaller number may have two distinct roots.
