Orthodontic management of uneven gingival margins in patients with healthy or reduced periodontium to improve smile aesthetics

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
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

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
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

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
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.

Regenerative periodontal surgery and orthodontic therapy in the treatment of patients with stage IV periodontitis and pathologic tooth migration

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Patients suffering from stage IV periodontitis are often characterized by pathologic tooth migration, drifting, flaring, posterior bite collapse, and secondary occlusal trauma (case type 2). Many times, these patients seek treatment because of functional and esthetic demands.

Impact of systemic diseases on periodontal remodeling: Mechanisms, mediators, and clinical relevance

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal remodeling is a continuous, adaptive process essential for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of periodontal tissues. While external factors such as bacterial biofilm, excessive forces, and poor oral hygiene are recognized triggers of periodontal pathologies, they do not fully explain their persistent ...
