Analysis of the biological effects of Therapeutic ultrasound on orthodontically induced tooth root resorption repair
DownloadFall 2012
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the biological effects of LIPUS on orthodontically induced inflammatory resorption (OIIRR) in in vivo and in vitro models. The in vitro samples were obtained from healthy human premolars and cultured for 5-days or 24-hours with application of LIPUS at...
