Gingival thickness and gingival width in children: a cross-sectional study utilizing ultrasonography

European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry: Official Journal of the European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry
To measure the gingival phenotype-related features, gingival thickness (GT) and gingival width (GW), in healthy children and to investigate their association between them, with age, gender, tooth-type and arch.The gingival sites of 1029 teeth were included from 64 children (36 males and 28 females), with primary and mixed dentition, attending the ...

Intraoral Diagnostic Ultrasound to Assess Gingival Thickness Measurement

Abstract Background: Assessment of periodontal parameters such as gingival thickness is relevant during diagnosis and treatment planning in all disciplines of dentistry. Thin and thick gingival thickness respond differently to inflammation, restorative trauma, and surgical insult.

Repeatability of ultrasonic determination of gingival thickness

Clinical Oral Investigations, 2007
The aim of the present study was to assess the degree of disagreement of ultrasonic measurements of gingival thickness at different teeth. Gingival thickness was determined in 33 volunteers with plaque-induced gingivitis. Facial/buccal gingiva was measured at the level of the gingival sulcus depth. Measurements were repeated after 2 and 4 weeks.

A Novel Technique for the Estimation of Gingival Thickness: A Preliminary Study

The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry, 2021
This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between soft tissue thickness measured by CBCT and phenotype probing estimation and to assess the thickness cutoffs for each phenotype probing outcome. CBCT was performed with a lip retractor in order to isolate periodontal soft tissues in 10 consecutive patients.

Relationship of Gingival Phenotypes and Faciolingual Thickness, Papilla Height, and Gingival Angle in a Chinese Population

The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry, 2021
The objective of this study was to determine the normal values of faciolingual thickness (FLT) of the papilla base, papilla height (PH), and gingival angle (GA) among Chinese adults and the association of FLT with the gingival phenotype. The periodontal phenotypes of 105 volunteers were confirmed by Kan et al's periodontal probe transmission method and

Periodontal Biotype: Gingival Thickness as It Relates to Probe Visibility and Buccal Plate Thickness

Journal of Periodontology, 2015
Background: Probe visibility is the clinical gold standard to discriminate thick from thin biotype but is prone to subjective interpretation. The primary objective of this study is to determine at what objective gingival thickness the probe becomes invisible through the tissue.

Reproducibility of the PIROP ultrasonic biometer for gingival thickness measurements

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, 2018
AbstractObjectivesGingival thickness (GT) has a great importance in periodontal flap design, gingival recession, and soft tissue esthetic. The aim of this study was to determine the reproducibility of PIROP ultrasonic biometer, which is specially designed for human GT measurements and to compare with the invasive transgingival probing technique ...

Assessment of gingival margin thickness before margin placement

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1994
Matrix material can be cut and placed beneath the gingival tissue to mimic a metal collar on a metal/ceramic crown restoration. If this metal matrix causes a discoloration of the gingival tissue, it would be wise to restore the tooth by using an all-porcelain margin.

The effect of enamel matrix protein on gingival tissue thickness in vivo

Odontology, 2011
The enamel matrix derivative (EMD) has been used extensively as an adjunct to root coverage procedures to achieve periodontal regeneration. However, its effect on gingival tissues has not been elucidated. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate histometrically the change in gingival soft tissue thickness around dehiscence-type defects treated ...
