Torque correction is one of the most difficultand critical procedures performed during thefinishing phase of orthodontic treatment. Proper torque positions the root in a physiological periodontalsituation because it ensures both appropriateocclusal ­force distribution and adequate thicknessof the vestibular cortical plate. In a case wheregingival recession is combined with significanttorque abnormality, can torque correction also induce an improvement of the periodontal lesion?This article addresses that question with a periodontalapplication of a lingual beta titaniumspring, using bracketless fixed orthodontics.
