Abstract:
Non-extraction orthodontic treatment for crowding correction usually found labial movement of lower incisors.
Alveolar bone which covers at labial surface of lower incisors found high incidence of bony dehiscence despite of
patients who did not undergo an orthodontic treatment. This review article is aimed to propose the factors affecting
labial movement of lower incisors, the results of gingival recession and alveolar bone loss after labial movement of
lower incisors for the purpose in orthodontic treatment plan consideration which is not harmful to periodontal tissues.
