Research Abstract |
In order to evaluate the effect of apoptosis inhibitors on orthodontically induced root resorption, an orthodontic appliance was applied on the rats. Several apoptosis inhibitors such as lithiun cloride and selegiline hydrocloride were administrated to the rats and the root resorption was measured. The inhibitory effect of any apoptosis inhibitor on root resorption was not observed. However, in the course of this study, root resorption in the ovalectomized rats was found to be increased, on the other hand, root resorption of the fluoride-treated rats was found to be inhibited.
