Lit Flashcards
Green 1962
Loss of stippling is one of the earliest signs of inflammation
Bowers 1963
AG Range 1-9 mm; Greatest: incisors; Least: premolars; Max>Mand. Frenum/muscle attachments assoc. with narrow zone of AG
Tenenbaum & Tenenbaum 1986
Widest in incisor area (4-6mm) and narrowest at distal to canine in the deciduous (1st molar) and permanent (1st premolar)
Sulcus depth is a sig. determinant in the variations of AG among the
primary, transitional, and permanent dentition
Voigt et al. 1978
Range 1-8 mm; increased from later incisors (1.3mm) to the 1st and 2nd molar (4.7mm). Greatest width in 1
st molar
Decreased from primary to permanent dentition.
Lang and Loe 1972
KTW >2 mm (w/ 1mm AG) showed less gingival inflammation.
Wennström and Lindhe 1983
7 beagles
Split mouth
Remove AG and graft on right, no graft left
Daily performed mechanical plaque control was sufficient to maintain peridontal health without signs of recession of the gingival margin or attachment loss, independent of attached or keratinized gingiva.
Cortellini and
Bissada 2018
A minimum amount of KT is not needed to prevent attachment loss when good OH are present.
- But attached gingiva (2 mm of KG and 1 mm of AG) is important to
maintain gingival health in patients with inadequate plaque control.
Thin-scalloped,” “thick-scalloped,”
and “thick-flat” periodontal biotypes can be evaluated through specific methods for gingival thickness, keratinized
tissue width, and buccal bone plate thickness evaluation
Cook et al. 2011
Thin periodontal biotype (based on visibility) was
significantly related to thinner labial plate thickness (50% less), increased distance from CEJ to alveolar crest and narrow keratinized tissue width.
Ainamo and Loe 1966
Free gingival groove only present in 1/3 of normal gingiva
Tarnow et al. 1992
5mm -100%
6mm - 56%
7mm - 27%
McHugh 1971
Col - higher plaque accumulation than buccal/lingual
non-keratinized (REE)
Correlated to presence/severity of gingivitis
Torabinejad et al. 2007
Overall Success rates:
single implant crown - 95%
root canal tx - 84%
FPD - 81%
Fugazzotto 2001
Root amputation vs Molar implant (13yr follow up)
distal mandibular root - lowest success - 75%
all others range from 95-100%
Cumulative average - 96.8%
Implant - 97%
Worst for both were lone standing terminal abutments
Avila et al. 2009
The minimum acceptable C:R is 1:1 when perio is healthy and occlusion is controlled
Tenenbaum et al 2017
232 implants 10 year follow up
PIM - 60.2% implants 73% patients
PI - 12% implants 15% patients
