Abstract: Health and support of periodontal tissue is the basis for achieving excellent, safe and efficient orthodontic treatment outcome, which also guarantees the esthetics, stability and function of treatment objectives. The support of healthy periodontal tissue contributes to the stability of teeth. Orthodontic treatment also requires adaptive periodontal reconstruction during tooth movement. Well-aligned teeth and balanced occlusion play an important role in maintaining and improving periodontal homeostasis. Healthy orthodontic treatment can improve the health of periodontal structure and functions, which has to rely on the existence and reconstruction of healthy periodontal tissue. Therefore, orthodontics and periodontal health have dialectically close association and mutual maintenance. Favorable "periodontal support and escort" is indispensable for healthy orthodontic treatment.
