Pooled estimates indicate about 226 million individuals are currently experiencing or have experienced persistent symptoms from COVID-19. Long COVID-19 (LC) has been associated with a prolonged inflammatory and stress responses in affected individuals. Due to common pathways, LC could impact the biological mechanisms of orthodontic tooth movement, orthodontically-induced inflammatory root resorption and periodontal tissue response of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. The authors of the present report discussed potential biological mechanisms through which LC may influence orthodontic treatment highlighting the need for further research in this area.
汇总估计表明,目前约有2.26亿人正在经历或已经经历过新冠病毒感染后的持续症状。新冠长期症状(LC)与受影响个体的炎症和应激反应延长有关。由于存在共同途径,新冠长期症状可能会影响正畸牙齿移动、正畸诱导的炎性牙根吸收以及正畸治疗患者的牙周组织反应的生物学机制。本报告的作者讨论了新冠长期症状可能影响正畸治疗的潜在生物学机制,强调了该领域进一步研究的必要性。
