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.

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.
