Background: Gingival biotype can be influenced by genetic factors, tooth-related factors and biological issues. This study aimed to determine the biotype of facial gingival and related factors. Methods: In this study, 300 patients (128 males and 172 females) with a mean age of 36.2 ± 13.27 were selected by simple random sampling. Patients’ characteristics including age, gender, smoking, dental and keratinized gingival anatomy and oral hygiene parameters were recorded and their associations with gingival biotype were investigated using Transparency method. Collected data were analyzed by SPSS24 using t test, Mann-Whitney, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coefficient. The P<0.05 was considered significant. Results: Frequency of thin gingival biotype was higher than that of thick gingival biotype. There was a significant relationship between gingival biotype of upper central incisors areas and age (P < 0.001), vibratory brushing (P=0.019) and keratinized gingival width (P=0.021). There was also a significant relationship between the gingival biotype of lower central incisor area and gender (P=0.036), vibratory brushing (P=0.010), vertical brushing (P=0.009) and keratinized gingival width (P=0.011). Moreover, a significant direct relationship was discovered between Gingival biotype of upper and lower central incisors areas. No relationship was found between frequency and duration of brushing, dental flossing, plaque index, tooth shape, and smoking with gingival biotype (P> 0.005). Conclusions: Gingival biotype was associated with age, gender and keratinized gingival width, as well as some brushing characteristics such as the brushing method.

Introduction: The facial appearance depends on several oral and extraoral factors including colour of facial skin and pigmentation of gingival epithelium. The colour of the gingiva varies among individuals and is thought to be associated with cutaneous pigmentation which ranges from light to dark brown or black colour. Objective: To assess the prevalence of physiological gingival pigmentation, gingival biotype and their association with skin colur in Nepalese subjects visiting Kantipur Dental College and Hospital (KDCH). Methods: This was an analytical cross-sectional study which was carried out from February 2020 to June 2020 in all patients of age-group 16 to 80 years visiting the Department of Periodontics at KDCH after ethical approval. Patients were recruited by convenience sampling and examined thoroughly to find out gingival biotype and extent of gingival pigmentation intraorally as well as skin colour extraorally. Results: In this study, 210 patients were examined among which, 105 (50%) were males and 105 (50%) were females. Out of 210, 33 (15.7%) had pink tissue without pigmentation, 84 (40%) had pigmentation only in attached gingiva, 58 (27.6%) in attached gingiva and interdental papilla, 32 (15.2%) had diffuse pigmentation involving all parts of gingiva, 2 (1%) had in marginal gingiva only, and 1 (0.5%) in marginal gingiva and interdental papilla. Conclusion: A strong association was found between gingival pigmentation and facial skin colour in present study (P <0.001). Establishing the pattern of gingival pigmentation in Nepalese population will help to choose a specific depigmentation therapy that will harmonise with skin colour.

Abstract Background The width of attached gingiva depends on the height of the alveolar process and lower vertical dimension of the face .The relationship between facial type and gingival phenotype may be extremely important in the orthodontic planning. This study analyzed the relationship between facial types and different types of tooth crowns with the characteristics of the gingival tissue. Methods 90 maxillary central incisors of 45 individuals were evaluated, aged 15 to 35 years, of both genders. The analysis addressed the width and thickness of keratinized gingiva (gingival phenotype) and dimensions of tooth crowns. The individuals were scored according to the facial type. The relationship between width of keratinized gingiva and gingival phenotype was correlated to the facial type (brachyfacial, mesofacial or dolichofacial) and size and shape of maxillary central incisors. The results were statistically analyzed by the Spearman correlation test (to evaluate the relationship between shape of tooth crowns and gingival biotype) and Kruskal-Wallis (to analyze the influence of facial types on the gingival characteristics), both at a significance level of 5%.Results There was correlation between the gingival width and crown shapes (p=0.00). There were no statistically significant differences between facial types and width of keratinized gingiva (p=0.33) and between facial types and thickness of keratinized gingiva (p=0.09).Conclusions Within the limitations, we conclude that the facial types did not seem to influence the gingival phenotype; however, the crown shapes seemed to be related to the quantity of keratinized gingiva.
