“…This is in agreement with other studies. 2,21 Usually, the lateral incisors maintain a more lingual position to the central incisors during eruption. A more pronounced labial position of the central incisors might result in a thin labial bone plate and apical migration of the marginal gingiva.…”

“…1 The buccal surfaces of central mandibular incisors and maxillary molars are the most frequently affected sites. 2 The prevalence of gingival recession is gender and population dependent, increases with age, 2,3 and is shown to be associated with malocclusions and individually malpositioned teeth. 4 The etiology of gingival recession is considered to be multifactorial.…”

Objective: To assess the prevalence and severity of vestibular gingival recession of mandibular incisors after orthodontic treatment and to evaluate possible contributing factors. Materials and Methods: From the record pool of patients who completed orthodontic treatment from 1999-2006 at the Department of Orthodontics, University of Oslo, Norway, 588 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Intraoral color slides were used for the evaluation of gingival recessions (based on Miller classification), presence of visible plaque, and gingival inflammation. Cephalometric radiographs were used to assess the sagittal intermaxillary relation, mandibular and intermaxillary angles, and the position of the lower incisors. A control group was drawn from the same pool of 588 patients. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS. Results: The prevalence of gingival recessions after orthodontic treatment was 10.3%. Most (8.6%) were classified as Miller Class I, and 1.7% were classified as Miller Class II. Gingival recession was predominantly found on central incisors. Reduction of the sagittal intermaxillary angle and retroclination of the lower incisors was correlated with the development of a more severe gingival recession. Conclusions: The present study indicates that vestibular gingival recession of mandibular incisors after orthodontic treatment is of minor prevalence and severity. The presence of gingival recession or retroclination of the incisors with mesial basal relations increases the risk of more severe gingival recession. (Angle Orthod. 2012;82:42-47.)

Treatment of gingival recessions in heavy smokers using two surgical techniques: a controlled clinical trial

et al. 2012

Smokers have small root coverage which is associated with bad vascularity of periodontal tissues. This study evaluated a technique that can increase the blood supply to the periodontal tissues compared with a traditional technique. Twenty heavy smokers (10 males and 10 females) with two bilateral Miller class I gingival recessions received coronally positioned flaps in one side (Control group) and extended flap technique in the other side (Test group). Clinical measurements (probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing, gingival recession height, gingival recession width, amount of keratinized tissue, and width and height of the papillae adjacent to the recession) were determined at baseline, 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Salivary cotinina samples were taken as an indicator of the nicotine exposure level. No statistically significant differences (p>0.05) were detected for the clinical measurements or smoke exposure. Both techniques promoted low root coverage (Control group: 43.18% and Test group: 44.52%). In conclusion, no difference was found in root coverage between the techniques. Root coverage is possible and uneventful even, if rather low, in heavy smoker patients with low plaque and bleeding indices.

“…Epidemiological studies confirm a frequent occurrence of gingival recession in the adult population, and its prevalence increases with age. They also reveal that gingival recessions are found more frequently on the buccal surfaces [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Clinical problems related to gingival recession are as follows: dentin hypersensitivity, higher risk of non-carious cervical lesions, root caries and elongation of the tooth crown resulting in esthetic problems, especially when the anterior teeth are affected.…”

Gingival recession is characterized by apical displacement of the gingival margin to the cemento-enamel junction, which in consequence contributes to the dehiscence of the root surface [1]. Epidemiological studies confirm a frequent occurrence of gingival recession in the adult population, and its prevalence increases with age. They also reveal that gingival recessions are found more frequently on the buccal surfaces [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Clinical problems related to gingival recession are as follows: dentin hypersensitivity, higher risk of non-carious cervical lesions, root caries and elongation of the tooth crown resulting in esthetic problems, especially when the anterior teeth are affected. Gingival recession uncomplicated by inflammation is termed 'classic recession'. It is the most common form of gingival recession, with clinical attachment loss on the buccal surface, but without the presence of additional factors. Inadequate oral hygiene or recessions reaching the muco-gingival line can lead to secondary inflammation and the development of periodonti- AbstractThe stomatognathic system is a morphological and functional complex where any disturbance in one part of this system influences the functioning of the others. The possible relation between teeth, their supporting structures, the jaws, the masticatory muscles and the temporomandibular joints is a subject of many studies. The impact of occlusion on the response of periodontal tissues are still being discussed. The aim of this study was to review the literature concerning the association between the occlusal loading and the formation of gingival recession and changes in the healthy periodontal tissues. On the basis of clinical trials in human populations the following conclusions can be drawn: premature contacts in maximum intercuspation and balancing occlusal contacts during lateral movements are doubtful factors responsible for destructive changes in the healthy periodontium, but the absence of mutually protected occlusion may contribute to the development of gingival recession, so the examination of occlusion and correction of improper tooth contact are suggested in this clinical cases (Dent. Med. Probl. 2016, 53, 4, 529-535).
