The effects of orthodontic tooth movement on the glycosaminoglycan components of gingival crevicular fluid

TL;DR: The aim was to identify and quantify the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) components of GCF and relate them to tooth movement, gingival inflammation, plaque accumulation, pocket probing depth and GCF volume recorded at the site of sampling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Caries lesions and dental restorations as predisposing factors in the progression of periodontal diseases in adolescents. A 3-year longitudinal study.

TL;DR: It is indicated that untreated cavities and dental restorations are predisposing factors with a significant negative effect on periodontal health in adolescents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of probiotic lozenges on inflammatory reactions and oral biofilm during experimental gingivitis.

TL;DR: Daily intake of probiotic lozenges did not seem to significantly affect the plaque accumulation, inflammatory reaction or the composition of the biofilm during experimental gingivitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycosaminoglycans of Human Gingival Epithelium and Connective Tissue

TL;DR: The glycosaminoglycan (GAG) components of the proteoglycans (PG) in the epithelial and connective tissue extracellular compartments of human gingivae have been determined following proteolytic digestion of the separated tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Ultrastructural Quantitative Study of the Significance of Microbial Multiplication During Early Dental Plaque Growth

TL;DR: The results indicate that proliferation of bacteria already present on the teeth accounts for the major part of the microbial mass increase during early plaque formation, and that the mean generation time is shorter during the first 8 hours than during the following 16 hours.

Indices for Prevalence and Incidence of Periodontal Disease

TL;DR: When the extent and distribution of the disease has been investigated, the available information is utilized in search for etiological factors and studies of the nature of the Disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

A System of Classification and Scoring for Prevalence Surveys of Periodontal Disease

TL;DR: A method for scoring the effects of periodontal disease which permits quantitative comparisons between or within human populations, and which may be applied swiftly and with a minimum of equipment in the field is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pregnancy gingivitis: History, classification, etiology

TL;DR: The histologic changes apparently do not arise from a single etiological factor, but are a manifestation of the altered nutritional and the metabolic status of the individual during pregnancy, and the immediate cause of the gingival changes appears to be a diminished utilization of estrogen or a modification of estrogen metabolism.
