Abstract:
During orthodontic treatment,irregular and varying sized nodular bony protrusions may sometimes appear on the labial side of the patient's anterior alveolar bone,which is closely related to the differential bone remodeling on the inner and outer surfaces of the alveolar bone.Labial protuberances not only affect the aesthetic results of orthodontic treatment,but also pose potential risks to periodontal health.Currently,it is believed that the influencing factors of the formation of the labial protuberances may be related to the patient's gender and age,tooth movement speed,and extent of anterior teeth retraction.Labial protuberances typically resolve spontaneously,however,if persistent,alveoloplasty may be necessary for treatment.This review provides a summary on the occurrence,influencing factors of formation,potential biological mechanisms,and corresponding treatment methods of labial protuberances during orthodontic treatment.
