Résumé
La compréhension des bases biomécaniques du déplacement dentaire orthodontique permet au clinicien d'adapter le traitement aux besoins individuels du patient. Trois concepts : centre de résistance, centre de rotation, rapport moment/force, sont applicables à toutes les décisions de traitement d'orthodontie. L'application de ces concepts peut aboutir à un traitement plus précis, adapté à des buts spécifiques.
Abstract
Understanding the biomechanical basis of orthodontic tooth movement enables the clinician to tailor treatment to the patient's individual needs. Three concepts-center of resistance, center of rotation, and moment-to-force ratio, are applicable to all orthodontic treatment decisions. Application of these concepts can result in more precise treatment and attainment of specific goals.
Mots clés : Biomécanique / Centre de résistance / Centre de rotation / Rapport moment/force
