Horizontal impact of extensive incisor retraction on alveolar bone
Alveolar bone thickness decreased during extensive retraction, especially near the alveolar crest, with less noticeable variations closer to the tooth root apices. The stable positioning of incisors within the alveolar bone indicates that the alveolar bone changes were primarily morphological, and suggests that partial tooth movement resulted from bone deformation.
