Clinical and microbiological effects of subgingival restorations with overhanging or clinically perfect margins

TL;DR: Changes in the subgingival microflora after the placement of restorations with overhanging margins document a potential mechanism for the initiation of periodontal disease associated with iatrogenic factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Periodontal probing: What does it mean?

TL;DR: It is now apparent that probing depth measured from the gingival margin seldom corresponds to sulcus or pocket depth, and the interpretation ofperiodontal probing in the practice of periodontics may need reappraisal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological and technical complications and failures with fixed partial dentures (FPD) on implants and teeth after four to five years of function.

TL;DR: Favourable clinical conditions were found at tooth and implant abutments after 4-5 years of function and bruxism as well as extensions were associated with more technical failures.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of systematic plaque control on bone regeneration in infrabony pockets.

TL;DR: A clinical trial was undertaken to test the hypothesis that periodontitis can be cured and that bone regeneration occurs in infrabony pockets in patients maintained on an optimal standard of oral hygiene, and showed that all osseous defects of the patients of the test group were refilled with bone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of pregnancy on periodontal and dental health

TL;DR: Pregnancy-related changes in the oral environment may have some untoward temporary or permanent effects on oral health, and most of these effects could be avoided by practising good oral hygiene.

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.
