Gingival crevicular fluid bone turnover biomarkers: How postmenopausal women respond to orthodontic activation

Although postmenopausal women have a different bone turnover profile at baseline than do their premenopausal counterparts, there is no difference in their response to orthodontic activation. This confers a level of security associated with orthodontic activation. Future studies are warranted to construct biomarker curves throughout orthodontic therapy.
