Abstract

This study investigates the alterations in homeostasis indicators of oral fluid during different stages of orthodontic treatment in children. The research employs a longitudinal approach, tracking changes in salivary pH, electrolyte levels, and enzymatic activity before treatment initiation, during active treatment, and post-treatment. Special emphasis is placed on understanding how orthodontic appliances and interventions influence these biomarkers, which are critical for oral health maintenance. Insights gained from this investigation contribute to optimizing orthodontic protocols and improving patient outcomes by addressing potential disruptions in oral fluid homeostasis throughout the course of treatment.
