The nutritive state of the individual influences
the oral cavity evolution as well as the structures of it.
Abnormalities are caused by both deficiencies as well as
toxicities of the nutrients. The pertinent biological
retaliation of the periodontal structure and alveolar
support of the bone to an orthodontic force can be
enhanced by the beneficial consumption of nutrition while
it can be kept down by the deprived nutrition. Teeth
cannot be absent or disarranged as well as maxilla and
mandible cannot be distorted, unless and until it has been
interfered by some substance or something else and
ordinarily it should be the consumption of food as nature
has no tendency for any inaccuracies. Orthodontic as well
as dentofacial therapy includes the utilization of force
elements as well as orthodontic appliances that can
unfavorably act on food intake, consumption of the
nutrition of the orthodontic patient. Requirement of
balanced nutrients is must for effective orthodontic
treatment. Orthodontia has some evidence based
laboratory studies that have divulged that vitamin D
accelerates tooth movement. Osteoclastic and osteoblastic
activities take place throughout the orthodontic therapy;
this bone remodeling process authorizes the tooth
movement. Bone remodeling can be influenced by so many
factors including nutritional intake at the cellular basis
that can affect the orthodontic tooth movement.
Orthodontic tooth movement can be influenced by the
supplementation of vitamin C as vitamin C is the factor
which can accelerate the bone remodeling activities.
