Alveolar bone exostoses (ABE), also known as a buttress bone formation, are not uncommon to the literature. Although, exostoses in response to the trauma from occlusion are a popular concept proposed more than 45 years ago, still the aetiological factors behind this development are unclear. Various risks and complications associated with orthodontic implants have been published, but buttress bone formation subsequent to this procedure has not been reported till date. This article describes a case of ABE, subsequent to the placement of orthodontic mini implants, where after careful evaluation, resective osseous surgery was performed.
牙槽骨外生骨疣(ABE),也称为支撑骨形成,在文献中并不罕见。尽管因咬合创伤引起的外生骨疣是45多年前提出的一个普遍概念,但这种发育背后的病因尚不清楚。已发表了与正畸种植体相关的各种风险和并发症,但迄今为止尚未报道该手术后出现支撑骨形成的情况。本文描述了一例正畸微型种植体植入后发生ABE的病例,经过仔细评估后,进行了切除性骨手术。
