Gingival Depigmentation

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.

SUMMARY Internal bleaching in endodontically treated teeth requires care and protection to prevent harm to the periodontal ligament due to peroxide and may result in external root resorption. There is a myriad of treatment options when this occurs, such as monitoring, extraction, and subsequent rehabilitation with implants or fixed prosthodontics. In some cases, such as the one described here, a conservative attempt to maintain the tooth as a single structure can be made by sealing the resorptive defect. In the present case, we show a multidisciplinary approach where orthodontics, periodontics, and restorative dentistry were involved in treating the maxillary right central incisor (#8) of a 65-year-old patient with extensive cervical resorption, whose chief complaint was esthetics. The proposed treatment was extrusion of the tooth followed by curettage and restoration of the defect with glass ionomer cement. The patient has been followed for 15 years with no signs of recurrence, maintenance of periodontal health, and patient satisfaction with the esthetic outcome.

General Dentist

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.

1147 children aged 11–12 years were examined to determine the mean overjet values relative to five defined postural lower lip/maxillary central incisor relationships. A mean overjet of 3·025 mm was found in those children having a postural lower lip position related to the middle third of the maxillary central incisor; and those having no lower lip cover had a mean overjet of 4·26 mm. In contrast, the mean overjet value was 9·18 mm for those children having a “negative” lip position. The observed differences between the mean overjet values relative to each lower lip position are statistically significant, but the only lower lip/maxillary central incisor relationship which appears to have any marked clinical significance is the one defined as—1 (i.e. the trapped lower lip).

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the influence of incisal edge asymmetry of the maxillary central incisors on dentofacial esthetics among orthodontists, prosthodontists, and laypersons using video analysis. Materials and Methods: Full-face films of a 52-year-old afro-descendant woman displaying various levels of incisal wear in the esthetic zone were captured. An acrylic resin mockup was made of the maxillary anterior region, enabling the reproduction of an attractive smile and restoring tooth wear. Four different levels of incisal asymmetry between the upper central incisors in 0.5 mm increments were prepared from this mockup. A film was made for each level of asymmetry (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0) and one with no asymmetry, with the patient repeating a sentence, totaling five films. After a pilot study and sample calculation, the films were evaluated by 138 examiners: 46 orthodontists, 46 laypeople, and 46 prosthodontists. Each examiner evaluated the dentofacial esthetics of each film using visual analog scales. Data collected were statistically analyzed. Results: Highest scores were awarded to the film with no asymmetry between upper centrals and the one with 0.5 mm of asymmetry. The asymmetries of 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm had the lowest scores from all three groups. Conclusions: The results of this video analysis indicate that asymmetries equal to or greater than 1.0 mm between the upper central incisors edges jeopardize dentofacial esthetics.

SUMMARY Statement of Problem: The long-term effect of the presence of porcelain laminate veneers (PLVs) on the health of the surrounding gingival issues is not available in the restorative literature. Purpose: To assess the long-term effect of PLVs on the health of the surrounding gingival tissues. A secondary aim was to correlate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) scores with clinical parameters used for gingival health assessment in teeth treated with PLVs. Methods and Materials: Patients who received PLVs placed at the Graduate Restorative Clinic within a seven- to 14-year period were recalled for clinical evaluations. Periodontal measurements including gingival index (GI), periodontal pocket depth (PPD), gingival recession (GR), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured using a standard probe and indices. Gingival Crevicular Fluid (GCF) was measured with a Periotron machine (Periotron 8000, Oraflow Inc), using Periopaper (Periopaper Gingival Fluid Collection Strip, Oraflow Inc.) for fluid collection. Photographs of any observed clinical defect were taken. Data were tabulated using Excel 2010 (Microsoft Corp). Statistical analysis for all descriptive statistics was performed using SPSS 21 (SPSS Software, IBM Corp.) and Stata SE 13 (Stata Software, StataCorp). Repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was done to test for statistical significance of the mean pocket depths between the restored and unrestored surfaces of the veneered teeth. The significance level for all tests was p<0.05. Pearson's correlation coefficient was performed for testing statistical significance between GCF and GI and between GCF and PPD. Results: The frequency distribution of the GI included 47 PLVs (43%) with normal gingiva, 16 (15%) with mild inflammation, and 46 (42%) with moderate inflammation and bleeding on probing. The average PPD on the facial surface of the maxillary and mandibular PLVs was 2.17 mm and 2.16 mm, respectively. On the lingual surface, the average PPD was 2.10 mm for maxillary and 2.22 mm for mandibular PLVs. Gingival recession was seen in 27% of the evaluated PLVs. The repeated-measures ANOVA revealed p≥0.136, showing no statistical difference in the mean pocket depths between restored facial and unrestored lingual surfaces of the veneered teeth. A moderate correlation (r=0.407) was found between GCF and GI, which was significant at p<0.001. No correlation (r=0.124) was found between GCF and PPD, which was not significant at p=0.197. Conclusions: Gingival response to the evaluated PLVs was in the satisfactory range, with overall GI scores ranging between normal and moderate inflammation, pocket depths ranging from 1 to 2 mm, and recession present in 27% of the evaluated PLVs. No statistically significant difference was found between the mean pocket depths of the restored and unrestored surfaces of veneered teeth (p≥0.136). A moderate correlation was found between GCF and GI.

Aim: To evaluate the periodontal status before and after orthodontic treatment and to analyze the confounding factors associated with it. Materials and Methods: The present retrospective study analyzed pre- and posttreatment records of a total of 60 patients. Intraoral digital photographs before and after the orthodontic treatment were used to measure the following three periodontal variables: (a) width of the keratinized gingiva, (b) gingival recession, and (c) the status of interdental papilla. The ImageJ 46 software imaging program was used to perform the required measurements. The clinical data were then analyzed in an association with the participants’ demographic data, the type of orthodontic tooth movement, and other confounding factors. The data obtained were manually entered into the statistical package and analyzed using a significance level set at P < .05. Descriptive statistics, paired t-tests, and Pearson’s correlation analysis were used to identify differences among the studied variables. Results: Among the 60 patients, the majority (66.7%) were females. Most cases of the treated malocclusion were Class II, and most patients underwent intrusion and retrusion movements. The width of keratinized gingiva increased for most sites of upper teeth. In contrast, the lower teeth showed a mix of improvement and compromised width of keratinized gingiva. As a measure of gingival recession, the difference of clinical crown height revealed the tendency toward a reduced clinical crown height for most sites. Upper left lateral incisors and canines showed significant values with regard to keratinized gingival width measurements and tooth movements such as extrusion and intrusion movements. Likewise, with regard to the clinical crown height, upper right central incisors showed significant differences when correlated with the interincisal angle, lower incisors to the mandibular plane, and upper incisors to the NA line. The upper lateral incisors also showed significant correlations to certain cephalometric measurements. Conclusions: The orthodontic treatment was found to exert a significantly positive impact on the surrounding periodontium, particularly in the upper canine areas. Likewise, various types of tooth movement were found to positively affect the periodontium.

AbstractAn altered facial appearance is more difficult to face, than problems related to ill-fitting denture or eating. The selection of maxillary anterior teeth for complete denture has long posed problem in clinical practice and a controversy about the best method to employ still exists. An attempt is made in the present study to clinically correlate the face form with maxillary central incisor tooth form in males and females of Davangere population. In 1914, Leon William's projected the “the form method” where he classified facial forms as square, tapering, and ovoid. Maxillary central incisors were selected according to the facial forms.Of total 100 subjects four different tooth forms and face forms were evaluated. They are: square, ovoid, square-tapered, tapered. No significant correlation existed between face form in male and females. Females exhibited greater correlation between face forms and inverted tooth form but that correlation is not sufficient to serve as a guide for selection of anterior teeth.
