[Retrograde movement of upper incisors]. 1979

F Scholz, and D Lukas

Labial stress of 1 to 8 n(102-815 Pond) was exerted on free-standing upper incisors, both healthy teeth and teeth damaged by progressive marginal periodontitis, until all creeping movement subsided and constant guidance was achieved. The teeth were then freed, and the resetting movements were measured without inertia and free of effect. The dampening characteristics of healthy and diseased teeth differed qualitatively in the first few milliseconds. Construction of a diagnostic device of determination of periodontal disease suitable for the general practice therefore ought to be possible.
