Measurement and Comparison of Pattern of Bone Destruction in Chronic Periodontitis Patients with and Without Smoking Habit: A Cross-Sectional Study

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Background: Smoking is a major risk factor for the development and advancement of periodontal disorders, which in turn cause the loss of periodontal attachment, deeper pockets, and the loss of tooth and alveolar bone. Aim: The purpose of this research is

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

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'
