BackgroundThis study aimed to assess the relationship of maxillary alveolar bone thickness (BT) and height (BH) with gingival phenotype (GP) in smokers and nonsmokers using cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT).MethodsThis cross‐sectional study was conducted on 60 participants. The participants underwent periodontal examination, and their GP was determined by placing a periodontal probe in the gingival sulcus at the midline and observing the transparency. The participants were then assigned to four groups (n = 15) based on their smoking status and GP: thin phenotype/smoker, thick phenotype/smoker, thin phenotype/nonsmoker, and thick phenotype/nonsmoker. BT and BH of the participants were measured in the sagittal plane on CBCT scans at the bone crest and at 2, 4, and 6 mm apical to the crest at the site of maxillary central and lateral incisors. Data were analyzed by two‐way ANOVA and LSD test (alpha = 0.05).ResultsThe distance between the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) of maxillary central and lateral incisors and alveolar bone crest in smokers was significantly greater than that in nonsmokers (p < 0.001). Smoking had no significant effect on alveolar BT at the crestal level or 2, 4, and 6 mm apical to the crest. BT at the crest and 2, 4, and 6 mm apical to the crest was significantly greater in thick, versus thin, GP (p < 0.001).ConclusionSmoking significantly increased the distance between the CEJ and alveolar crest at the site of central and lateral incisors but had no significant effect on BT.Plain Language SummaryThis study found that smoking significantly increased the distance between the cementoenamel junction and the alveolar bone crest in maxillary incisors but did not affect alveolar bone thickness, which was greater in individuals with a thick gingival phenotype compared to those with a thin gingival phenotype.

Background Knowledge of masseter muscle size can be helpful in choosing more successful and stable orthodontic treatment plans. This study aimed to evaluate masseter muscle width and thickness in ultrasonography (USG) and its correlation with dental arch width. Methods In this descriptive-cross-sectional study, 45 participants (25 male (55.5%), and 20 female (45.5%)) were categorized according to their sex and age groups (16–20, 21–25, 26–30 Y.O.). The thickness and anterior-posterior width of the masseter muscle in the rest and clenched states were measured bilaterally using USG with the 7.5 MHz linear probe. Inter-molar width was measured using a metal caliper on dental casts of both jaws. The student t-test analysis was used to compare the means between males and females. The relationship between the width and thickness of masseter muscle and intermolar width was evaluated using Spearman correlation coefficient and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results Males exhibited significantly thicker and wider masseter muscles in rest and clenched states (P < 0.001). They also had wider dental arches in upper and lower jaws (P < 0.001). Intermolar width correlated significantly with muscle dimensions in both states (P < 0.05). However, age and sex categorization revealed no significant correlations between muscle parameters and intermolar widths (P > 0.05). Conclusion USG can be used to measure muscle thickness as a safe and reproducible method. There is a positive correlation between the masseter muscle width and thickness and intermolar width.
