Determining biologic width and its relevance in periodontics – a review [PDF]
Romanian Journal of StomatologyThe length from the root surface of a tooth to the junctional epithelium and connective tissue attachment is termed as biological width (BW). It protects the tooth from diseases and infections by acting as a natural seal. On an average it is 2.04 mm.

Exploring the Biological Width in Dentistry: A Comprehensive Narrative Review
Cureus, 2023 Biological width (BW) is the distance established from the junctional epithelium and connective tissue attachment to the root surface of a tooth. It acts as a natural seal protecting the tooth from infections and diseases. The normal dimension of it is 2.04 mm on average. A periodontal probe is used to determine BW in routine clinical practice. Various

The Effect of Biologic Materials and Oral Steroids on Radiographic and Clinical Outcomes of Horizontal Alveolar Ridge Augmentation. [PDF]
, 2018 The purpose of this study was to investigate if the addition of biologic materials and/or oral steroids would affect horizontal bone gain, or the bone density of the grafted bone in horizontal alveolar ridge augmentations.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.
