def of mucogingival conditions
deviations from norm anatomic relation btwn gingival margin and MGJ
common mucogingival conditions
- recession
- loss of keratinized tissue
- probing depths beyond MGJ
anatomy that can imapct how mucogingival defects are treated
- tooth position
- frenum position
- vestibular depth
can ridge anatomy impact mucogingival conditions?
yes
classes of mucogingival deformities
- localized tooth factors that mod or predispose to plaque induced dx
- mucoging conditions around teeth
- mucoging condtions of edentulous ridges
How much KT is enough?
– Bowers 63: normal varies from?
– Lang and Loe 72: need ? keratinized, ?
attached
– Maynard and Wilson 79: ?mm keratinized needed for restorative with ? mm attached
– Dorfman and Kennedy 80: less than ? mm is adequate if inflammation is controlled
– Freedman et al 99: 18 year study, less than ? mm is adequate if inflammation is controlled
for exam purposes:
– Bowers 63: normal varies from 1-9mm
– Lang and Loe 72: need 2 mm keratinized, 1mm attached
– Maynard and Wilson 79: 5mm keratinized needed for restorative with 3 mm attached
– Dorfman and Kennedy 80: less than 1 mm is adequate if inflammation is controlled
– Freedman et al 99: 18 year study, less than 1 mm is adequate if inflammation is controlled
for exam: 2mm or greater
esthetic enhancement of MG sx
when is this applicable:
gingiva?
alveolar ridge?
Providing a more esthetically acceptable gingival form and contour
– Localized gingival recession (today’s topic)
– Localized alveolar ridge deficiency
– Excessive gingival display
– Gingival enlargement or asymmetry
Recession definition
- Apical shift of the gingival margin, associated with attachment loss
etiologies of recession
– Toothbrush abrasion
– Frenal attachment
– Intrasulcular restorative margin placement*
– Orthodontics-dependent upon direction and bucco- lingual soft
tissue thickness
Potential consequences of gingival recession
Exposed root surface making it potentially more susceptible
to
– Root caries
– Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL’s)
– Dentinal sensitivity
– Poor esthetics
what is always asked with recession
sensitivity/esthetic issues?
predisposing factors to localized recession:
– Inadequate?
– Malposed?
– habit?
– inflam?
– Iatrogenic?
– Factitious?
– Inadequate attached gingiva: a dimension not a measurement (width and thickness)
– Malposed teeth
– TB habit
– Chronic inflammation
– Iatrogenic
– Factitious
inadequate attatched gingiva
**localized **gingival recession etiology-predisposing factors:
- Frenulum?
– Eruption?
– tobacco?
– Substances?
– Ortho?
- Frenulum attachment
– Eruption pattern
– Smokeless tobacco
– Substance abuse (cocaine)
– Orthodontics (?)
frenae attatchment
Localized Gingival Recession
* Treatment Objectives:
* root/KT
–Root coverage
–Increase the width and thickness of
keratinized tissue
indications for root coverage
- Esthetic concern
- Dentinal sensitivity
indications for increased width of KT
- Control of?
- Prevent?
- Control of plaque/inflammation
- Prevent further recession

Patients over the age of 40 and with recession :
