Abstract Uneven gingival margins may cause visible asymmetries during smiling and may reflect alterations in the tooth shape and morphology, particularly in cases requiring restorative procedures. Despite being perceived as a minor health condition, presence of uneven gingival margins usually impacts the smile aesthetics and could affect the individual'

Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines
Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

30 years of enamel matrix derivative: Mimicking tooth development as a clinical concept
Abstract The use of growth factors (GFs) has become a cornerstone of modern regenerative periodontology. While the extent to which GFs enhance tissue regeneration compared to other biomaterials was initially uncertain, it is now well established that GFs play a critical role in the regeneration of various tissue types.

Abstract For decades, osseous resective surgery along with apically positioned flap procedure has been advocated as a predictable treatment option to reduce residual pockets and minimize periodontal complications during supportive periodontal care. More recently, Fiber Retention Osseous Resective Surgery (FibReORS) has been suggested to reduce the ...

Abstract This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to evaluate the long‐term clinical outcomes of regenerative procedures compared with access flap surgery for the treatment of intrabony defects, with a minimum follow‐up period of 5 years. A systematic review protocol following PRISMA guidelines was conducted.

Abstract Objectives This systematic review investigated the efficacy of biologic factors in the surgical treatment of periodontal suprabony defects. Materials and Methods Three databases were searched to identify RCTs comparing open‐flap debridement (OFD) combined with biologic factors only, or combined with bone substitute, and/or barriers to the same

Long‐term periodontal and peri‐implant tissue stability under supportive therapy
Abstract Background Supportive periodontal and peri‐implant maintenance therapy is strongly associated with improved long‐term retention and stability of natural teeth and dental implants. Lack of regular professional follow‐up after initial therapy is a major risk factor for disease recurrence and tooth or implant loss.
