Dimensions and Relations of the Dentogingival Junction in Humans

Host-Bacteria Crosstalk at the Dentogingival Junction

The dentogingival junction is of crucial importance in periodontal host defense both structurally and functionally. Oral bacteria exert a constant challenge to the host cells and tissues at the dentogingival junction. The host response is set up to eliminate the pathogens by the innate and adaptive defense mechanisms. In health, the commensal bacteria and the host defense mechanisms are in a dy...

Soft tissue cone-beam computed tomography: a novel method for the measurement of gingival tissue and the dimensions of the dentogingival unit.

UNLABELLED The dimensions and relationships of the structures of the dentogingival unit have been greatly overlooked because of the inability to easily and precisely determine them. The purpose of the present study was to develop a soft tissue cone-beam computed tomography (ST-CBCT) to improve soft tissue image quality and allow the determination of the dimensions and relationships of the struc...

Morphology and dimensions of the dentogingival unit in the altered passive eruption

OBJECTIVES This study define altered passive eruption (APE) and evaluate the morphology of the dentogingival unit. MATERIAL AND METHODS 123 individuals subjected to clinical examination and parallel profile radiography of the upper central incisor. An evaluation was made of the correlation between the clinical diagnosis of APE and the degree of gingival overlap; by using a 19% overlap to defi...

Explaining the dimensions and components of the evaluation model of human resource management system with a strategic approach (Case study of Iran's petrochemical industry)

The human resources system is a source of advantage in organizations that these resources must be continuously evaluated to become a real source of advantage. The aim of this study was to identify a model for evaluating the human resource management system with a strategic approach for petrochemical companies. In terms of purpose, this research is applied in terms of qualitative data and in ter...
