“…The location of CEJ to measure CAL is a critical situation clinically as discussed by Vandana and Gupta,[ 35 ] in their study, where the distance between stent and CEJ was measured before and after reflection of flap. The percentage increase in over and under estimation of CEJ to stent measurement during flap reflection was clinically evident than equivalent measurement.…”

The location and nature of cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) are more than descriptive terms used simply to describe some aspects of tooth morphology; however, CEJ gains a lot of clinical significance due to various measurements dependent on it. It may be necessary to determine the location and pathological changes occurring at CEJ to make a diagnosis and treat diseases pertaining to epithelial attachment and gingival margin. However, the information related to CEJ is not discussed commonly. Hence, the present review paper provides an insight on CEJ in both primary and permanent dentition.

“…Vandana & Gupta (2009) indicate that one of the most important parameters in the evaluation of the periodontal disease is the loss of connective attachment to the tooth, and is here in the CEJ, which is an static benchmark, acts to measure periodontal destruction. In young adults, the CEJ is covered by gingival tissue, however, with increasing age and the passive eruption of the tooth, which compensates the incisal and occlusal wear, and periodontal disease, can expose to the oral environment the CEJ and thereby increase the possibility that chemical and physical processes compromise it and change their morphology (Arambawatta et al).…”

SUMMARY:The following study describes the mineralized tissue distribution which composes the cement-enamel junction, in a simple of Chilean people, comparing several teeth surfaces. Cervical area was observed (M-V, D-V, M-L/P, D-L/P sites) from 136 (n=68) longitudinal sections on premolars and incisors, with orthodontic or prosthetic reasons for exodontia, which were analyzed by optical microscope in order to identify the type of cement-enamel junction. For that measurement it was Choquet's criteria, founding four types: 1) cement over enamel, 2) enamel over cement, 3) vis a vis, 4) Gap presence between enamel, cement and exposed dentin. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of these. As result, it was observed that there was no association between tooth surface and Choquet's classification; however that association was observed while comparing the type of tooth and the relationship with mineralized tissues at the CEJ. So, incisors were associated with class 1 and premolars with class 3 of Choquet. Class 3 prevalence is the most frequently observed in the sample size (51.9%), following class 1 (42.4%), class 4 (4.4%), and class 2 with the lower prevalence on the sample (1.5%). Because this region is fragile and highly susceptible to pathological changes and from the external environment, it must be carefully handled during clinical procedures such as teeth whitening, orthodontics, restorations, root scaling and clamp placement.

“…The selected periodontal indices reflect the periodontal status of the probands included in the study. The periodontal index-CAL defines the degree of the advancement of the morphological lesions in the periodontium caused by the loss of the alveolar bone in the maxilla and mandible (Vandana and Gupta 2009 ). However, the BOP and the PD indices define the inflammation in progress in the area of the periodontal tissues.…”

The aim of this study was to establish the correlation between the occurrence of Q705K and F359L polymorphisms in patients diagnosed with pancreatic diseases and periodontal conditions of various degrees of severity. The above-mentioned genetic markers were assessed in patients with pancreatic cancer (n = 18) and chronic pancreatitis (n = 39) as well as in a healthy control group (n = 115). The established inclusion criteria were the following: Caucasian descent, non-smoking, and age range 20–80, with different levels of periodontitis activity according to S. Offenbacher’s scale. The genotyping reactions were performed by means of an RT-PCR with the use of TaqMan® genotyping assay. Results of the study revealed that the state of periodontium was significantly worse in patients with chronic pancreatitis. The Q705K and F359L polymorphisms were associated with more advanced cases of periodontitis measured by clinical attachment level, whereas the Q705K was associated with intensified bleeding index. Furthermore, the F359L single-nucleotide polymorphism was significantly higher in the group with chronic pancreatitis (p < 0.0001; OR = 6.8571). Whereas, the prevalence of Q705K polymorphism was higher in the group of pancreatic cancer (p = 0.107; OR = 3.3939). This study suggests that the exaggerated inflammatory response provoked by Q705K and F359L might be the common denominator for periodontitis, pancreatic cancer, and chronic pancreatitis. These findings might constitute the basis for a new diagnostic and therapeutic approach.
