“…Of course, gingival recession alone does not provide a full picture of periodontal health because it is often multifactorial in origin. 29,30 Therefore, we investigated the value of measurements derived from the CEJ, GM, and ABC as diagnostic gingival biomarkers, i.e., iGH and iABL ( Figure 3A ). Interexaminer bias values from Bland-Altman analysis were acceptably low for both iGH (0.06 mm) and iABL (0.45 mm) ( Figure 3B–C ) because these are lower than the precision of clinical probing which is restricted to integer measurements.…”

Objective: To determine the capacity of ultrasonographic image-based measurements of gingival height and alveolar bone level for monitoring periodontal health and disease. Methods: Sixteen subjects were recruited from patients scheduled to receive dental care and classified as periodontally healthy (n = 10) or diseased (n = 6) according to clinical guidelines. A 40-MHz ultrasound system was used to measure gingival recession, gingival height, alveolar bone level, and gingival thickness from 66 teeth for comparison to probing measurements of pocket depth and clinical attachment level. Interexaminer variability and comparison between ultrasound measurements and probing measurements was performed via Bland-Altman analysis. Results: Gingival recession and its risk in non-recessed patients could be determined via measurement of the supra- and subgingival cementoenamel junction relative to the gingival margin. Interexaminer bias for ultrasound image analysis was negligible (<0.10 mm) for imaged gingival height (iGH) and 0.45 mm for imaged alveolar bone level (iABL). Diseased subjects had significantly higher imaging measurements (iGH, iABL) and clinical measurements (probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level) than healthy subjects (p < 0.05). Subtraction of the average biologic width from iGH resulted in 83% agreement (≤1 mm difference) between iGH and probing pocket depth measurements. Conclusions: Ultrasonography has an equivalent diagnostic capacity as gold-standard physical probing for periodontal metrics while offering more detailed anatomical information.

“…Tooth mobility can be as a result of disease progression in chronic periodontitis or as a result of chronic trauma to a tooth seen often in the use of RPDs. The PRDs especially when not properly fabricated can serve as nidus for plaque accumulation and this in addition to the trauma from their constant rocking, may result in periodontal disease [13].…”

Background: There can be localized periodontal inflammation around abutment teeth of dentures as a result of plaque accumulation. This study assessed the periodontal changes of removable partial denture wearers compared to that of non-denture wearers. Methodology: Participants were recruited from the prosthodontic and restorative outpatient clinics of Lagos University Teaching Hospital. The self-administered questionnaire was used to collect information on socio-demographics, denture characteristics, periodontal changes and oral hygiene practice of participants. Periodontal status assessed included gingival inflammation, plaque accumulation and tooth mobility. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20 (IBM SPSS Armonk, New York) and presented as frequencies and percentages. Test for significance was done using Chi-square statistics, and the level of statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. Results: A total of 96 participants between age 16 and 74years were recruited with mean age of 40±14.5years. There were 56 females and 40 males (F:M; 1.4:1). Fifty-four denture wearers and forty-two non-denture wearers were recruited into the study. Among participants wearing partial denture, 49(90.7%) had gingival inflammation; 45(91.8%) had mild inflammation compared to 4.8% participants who are non-denture wearers. 29(53.7%) denture wearers had fair oral hygiene while most 31(73.8%) non-denture wearers had excellent oral hygiene. Abutment teeth in denture wearers had tooth recession; mostly on the upper arch and also posteriorly. Conclusion: The periodontal inflammation, tooth recession and mobility in denture wearers were worse compared to non-denture wearers. Thus, they need to be motivated for more adequate oral hygiene practices and have regular recall system to monitor their periodontal health.
