The therapy of dento-maxillary annomalies involves the use of orthodontic forces acting on the teeth, periodontium and alveolar bone, producing changes in their structure, resulting in final dental movement. The application of orthodontic forces should be done with extreme caution to avoid the occurrence of traumatic root resorption or aggravation when acting on a weak ground. The article aims to identify the particularities of orthodontic treatment in the etiology of external traumatic root resorbtions.
