Effect of occlusal trauma on healing of periapical pathoses: report of two cases

Abstract: Occlusal trauma is positively correlated with changes in periodontal tissues. Although experiments in animals have shown that application of forces to teeth will not induce further periodontal destruction, we believe that some failures of root canal treatment may be due to the presence of occlusal trauma modulating the responses of inflamed periapical tissues or apical pathoses with persistent infection.

“…Occlusal forces can cause changes in the alveolar bone and periodontal connective tissue both in the presence and in the absence of periodontitis (21). In the case reported here the traumatic occlusion caused by the premature contact of the taloned tooth produced an occlusal trauma that affected the whole opposing tooth and its supporting tissues (22). The acute apical periodontitis provoked by the occlusal trauma reversed when the anatomical element – the accessory cusp – causing the premature contact was removed.…”

“…The tooth with apical periodontitis may experience stress concentrations and therefore the tooth may be at risk of fracture ( Petcu et al, 2013 ). This potential occlusal trauma could affect the healing of periapical disease ( Harn et al, 2001 ). Our findings further explain the importance of controlling stress concentration in root canal therapy during the treatment of apical periodontitis.…”
