| Core Tip |
Intrabony defects caused by the iatrogenic use of elastic bands are undesirable. They can result in inflammation, suppuration, and persistent gingival bleeding; these effects, lead to bone degradation and can increase risks to the quality of life of teeth. In the present case, it was impossible to identify the duration in which the elastic bands were invaginated in the periodontal tissue; specifically, the bands may have been invaginated for many years, according to the patient's report. The use of guided tissue regeneration favored the reconstruction of the intrabony defects that were generated by these elastic bands. The use of elastic bands in orthodontics requires special care by both clinicians and patients to avoid iatrogenic effects. |
