Disease relevance of Tooth Mobility

• The use of both forms of porous hydroxylapatite resulted in reduction in pocket depth, and probeable attachment level gains as well as gingival recession and reduction of gingival fluid and tooth mobility [1].
• The effect on marginal inflammation and tooth mobility of occlusal adjustment by grinding was investigated in 43 occlusally traumatized teeth in 29 subjects with gingivitis and marginal periodontitis [2].
• The oral findings included caries, gingival recession, short-blunted roots, gingival bleeding, tooth mobility and severe alveolar bone loss resembling juvenile periodontitis [3].
• It is proposed that tooth mobility and tooth loss in oxalosis result from the combined effects of osteomalacia and oxalate crystal deposition within the periodontium [4].

High impact information on Tooth Mobility

• Chitosan was progressively reabsorbed by the host, with very satisfactory clinical recoveries of the 52 defects treated, for which tooth mobility and pocket depths were significantly reduced [5].
• Occlusal interference during mastication can cause pathological tooth mobility [6].
• The multilevel analysis associated PD reductions with patient factors (cigarette smoking status and carriage of the rare allele of a specific polymorphism for the interleukin-6 [IL-6] gene), tooth factors (tooth mobility and tooth type), and site factors (mesial and distal location) [7].
• The hypothesis of this pilot investigation was that increased interocclusal contact initiated by short-term occlusal splint disuse would increase tooth mobility and the bone-resorptive cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), comparable to IL-1-positive genotype and increased periodontitis severity [8].
• Regression models showed self-perceived oral health was better in persons with more teeth and recent dental treatment, and worse with tooth mobility, coronal decay, and more medical problems [9].

Anatomical context of Tooth Mobility

• The effects of variations in the opposing dentition on changes in the partially edentulous mandible. Part III. Tooth mobility and chewing efficiency with various maxillary dentitions [10].

Associations of Tooth Mobility with chemical compounds

• Occlusal characteristics and tooth mobility in periodontally healthy young males classified orthodontically [11].
• At week 6 and week 12 urinary and plasma cortisol levels had declined to basal values whereas tooth mobility, GI and PI remained elevated [12].
• However, a very homeostatic pattern of blood glucose values was displayed by those whose gingival state, tooth mobility, and labial debris improved or remained the same in the presence of the band [13].

Gene context of Tooth Mobility

• Tooth mobility measurement techniques using ECM impact hammer method [14].
• Familial ogee roots, tooth mobility, oligodontia, and microdontia [15].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Tooth Mobility

• Factors found to significantly influence the decision of tooth extraction were tooth mobility, tooth position, lack of occlusal antagonism, degree of furcation involvement, and remaining bone support [16].
• Gingival Index, probing depth, tooth mobility and occlusal sound duration via an occlusal sound analyser were recorded at the baseline [17].
