[Changes in the periodontal alveolar bone after surgical restoration of the dental occlusion].
Alveolar cortical bone of 49 including teeth of patients with dento-facial deformities has been studied before and after procedures of orthognathic surgery, performed to give a correct occlusion of those teeth. Standardised radiographic technic was used to measure the width of cortical alveolar lamina. The width was increased in all teeth studied, in a variable degree. This augmentation was explained as morphologic changes to maintain physiologic conditions in teeth's function.
