ABSTRACT Introduction: The surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion is a procedure that reduces the resistance of the sutures correcting the posterior crossbite in adults. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the periodontal status of 17 adults submitted to this procedure. Methods: The clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival recession, attached gingiva and bleeding were evaluated in maxillary first premolars and molars, central and lateral incisors of right and left sides before surgery, 5 days and 6 months after. Means, standard deviation, medians, minimum and maximum values were compared among the evaluations using the Friedman and McNemar tests. Results: There was a statistically significant increase in CAL in the right central incisor, right and left premolars and right and left molars. There was a statistically significant increase in gingival recession in the right and left premolars and molars. The amount of attached gingiva significantly decreased in right premolars and right and left molars. There was increase in bleeding in most of the teeth. Conclusion: Results indicated that the surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion might cause alterations in periodontal tissue.

A 9-year-old female was referred by her general dentist for an evaluation of an impacted maxillary left central incisor. Her maxillary left primary incisors showed crossbites and her right central incisor showed an edge-to-edge bite which caused gingival recession on the mandibular right central incisor. After treatment, the impacted maxillary central incisor erupted successfully. An optimal overbite and overjet were also achieved, and her gingival recession was improved.

Frenulum labialis yang abnormal dapat berpengaruh terhadap kesehatan gingiva dan menimbulkan penyakit periodontal dengan cara menarik margin gingiva sehingga menimbulkan resesi gingiva. Abnormalitas dari frenulum ini juga menyebabkan diastema dari gigi insisivus sentral, iritasi pada jaringan periodontal, menghalangi proses pembersihan gigi, menghalangi pergerakan alat ortodonsi, mengganggu pemakaian protesa gigi serta berpengaruh pada estetik. Selain frenulum yang abnormal, masalah pada gingiva yang dapat berpengaruh juga pada estetik adalah pigmentasi gingiva. Pigmentasi pada gingiva merupakan hasil dari granul melanin yang diproduksi oleh melanoblas. Hiperpigmentasi melanin pada gingiva biasanya bukan masalah medis tetapi keluhan pasien yang menginginkan terapi perbaikan estetik. Untuk melaporkan penatalaksanaan frenektomi labialis superior dan depigmentasi pada kasus sentral diastema dan pigmentasi gingiva. Anak perempuan 11 tahun diastema sentral insisivus maksila disertai dengan hiperpigmentasi gingiva regio anterior maksila. Diastema sentral insisivus maksilanya disebabkan oleh perlekatan frenulum labialis superior yang tinggi. Perawatan untuk perlekatan frenulum labialis superior yang tinggi dilakukan frenektomi dan perawatan depigmentasi dilakukan dengan teknik scraping menggunakan skalpel. Perawatan frenektomi dan depigmentasi menunjukkan hasil perbaikan perlekatan frenulum dan  menghilangkan hiperpigmentasi gingiva. ABSTRACT: Management of Frenectomy and Gingival Depigmentation at Regio Anterior Upper Arch of 11 Year Old Girl. Abnormal labial frenulum may affect gingival health and cause periodontal disease by pulling the gingival margin causing gingival recession. Abnormalities of the frenulum also cause diastema of central incisors and irritation of the periodontal tissues, bother the teeth cleaning process, interfere the movement of orthodontic tools, interfere with the proper fit of the denture and affect the aesthetics. In addition to abnormal frenulum, a problem that can affect the gingival esthetics is also gingival pigmentation. Gingival pigmentation is a result of melanin granules produced by melanoblast. Melanin hyperpigmentation of the gingiva is not a medical problem but it becomes a complaint from patients who desire aesthetic improvement therapies. To report frenectomy labialis superior management and depigmentation in the central case of diastema and gingival pigmentation. An 11 year old girl had diastema in maxillary central incisor accompanied by gingival pigmentation in maxillary anterior region. Diastema in maxillary central incisor is caused by a high attachment of the superior labial frenulum. The (one of the) Treatment for a high attachment of the superior labial frenulum is frenectomy and the depigmentation treatment is done by scraping technique using a scalpel. Frenectomy and depigmentation treatment show improved results of the frenulum attachment and remove gingival pigmentation.

Gingival recession refers to the exposure of the tooth’s surface by an apical shift of the gingiva. The aim of this paper is to present a clinical case of an adult patient with a skeletal Class I and clinically deep gingival recession in the mandibular left central incisor. A preadjusted appliance with 0.022 in×0.028 in slot was placed in both arches. Rectangular arches were used, with the addition of root lingual torque, specifically in the left lower central incisor. Class II and vertical intermaxillary elastics were used throughout the active treatment to obtain intercuspation of the posterior teeth. The orthodontic movement with the application of a localized biomechanics system of forces into the mandibular left central incisor delivered good dental and functional occlusion and, mainly, gingival and periodontal health. The follow-up showed stable results with the periodontium within normal limits and an improved occlusal interdigitation.

Gingival recession, whenever presents with sensitivity, aesthetic problem, root caries or difficulty in plaque control may pose a challenge for clinicians. Among the various treatment modalities for root coverage, laterally displaced flap has been a promising treatment for isolated gingival recession with an adequate amount of donor tissue adjacent to the recipient site. This case report presents a case of successful root coverage where laterally displaced flap was employed for the management of gingival recession in mandibular central incisor with two and a half years follow up.
