Gingival Thickness Assessment: Visual versus Direct Measurement
Background and Aim: Several methods have been suggested to measure gingival thick-ness. This study aimed to assess the reliability of visual assessment of facial gingival biotype of maxillary and mandibular teeth with or without using a periodontal probe in comparison with direct measurement. Materials and Methods: Sixty-seven healthy patients (25 women and 42 men) with a total of 100 hopele...
متن کاملCorrelation between gingival thickness and gingival recession in humans.
Gingival recession is characterized by the apical migration of the gingival margin, exposing the root surface. Studies have demonstrated several etiological factors for gingival recession such as periodontitis, traumatic toothbrushing, use of oral piercing, and past orthodontic therapy, among others. It might not be possible to identify and quantify the influence of each factor, and gingival re...
متن کاملEffect of smoking on IFN-γ and IL-10 cytokines level in gingival crevicular fluid and clinical parameters of periodontium in Babol city
Background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of tooth-supporting tissues. The present study was conducted to evaluate Interleukin-10 (IL-10) and Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with chronic periodontitis. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was carried out on 60 men including 30 smokers and 30 age-matched non-smokers. The ...
متن کاملEvaluation of effects of smoking on gingival thickness - A clinical study
Introduction: Smoking is a known risk factor of periodontitis. Cotinine, a metabolic by product of nicotine is involved in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Changes in gingival microvasculature, gingival epithelium take place which manifest clinically as decreased bleeding on probing and reduced inflammatory response, increased gingival thickness etc. Knowing the importance of gingival thickne...
متن کاملPeriodontium and Orthodontic Implications: Clinical Applications
Clinically, in periodontally susceptible or compromised patients who present malocclusion, the orthodontic intervention can be only in itiated when the periodontal inflammatory/infectious process is controlled and stable periodontal condition is achieved. Periodontal microbiota control is achieved throughout elimination or significant reduction of periodontal pockets. After the periodontal trea...
