Abstract:
В статье представлена информация об исследованиях с целью лечения и профилактики заболеваний пародонта. Были обследованы 103 детей школьного возраста с заболеваниями тканей пародонта. Из них 67 человек были больны хроническим катаральным гингивитом и 36 человек — хроническим пародонтитом легкой степени. Результаты клинических и лабораторных исследований показали, что в процессе проведения лечебно-профилактических мероприятий во время использования препарата лоробен была значительно восстановлена функциональная активность местных иммунных факторов. При комплексном лечении этих больных с применением препарата лоробен, наблюдалось более выраженное улучшение показателей, чем при применении раствора хлоргексидина биглюконата. Məqalədə parodont toxumalarının xəstəliklərinin müalicə və profilaktikası məqsədilə aparılan tədqiqat haqqında məlumat verilmişdir. Tədqiqata xronik kataral gingivit (XKG) və yüngül dərəcəli xronik parodontit (YDXP) diaqnozlu 103 uşaq cəlb edilmişdir. Onlardan 67 nəfərdə xronik kataral gingivit, 36 nəfərdə yüngül dərəcəli xronik parodontit olmuşdur. Müalicə-profilaktik tədbirlərin nəticələri hər üç qrupda klinik müşahidələr və obyektiv sınaqlar (OHİ-S, PMA, Pİ əmsalları və SBİ indeksi) əsasında da qiymətləndirilmişdir. Bundan başqa, xəstələrdə parodontal ciblərin mikroflorası və yerli immunitet göstəricilərinin tədqiq edilmişdir. Klinik və laborator tədqiqatların nəticələri göstərmişdir ki, Loroben məhlulunun istifadəsi ilə aparılmış müalicə-profilaktika tədbirləri, xlorheksidin-biqlukonat məhlulu ilə aparılan müalicəyə nisbətən daha effektiv olmuş, yerli immunitet faktorlarının funksional fəallığı daha çox bərpa edilmişdir. The article provides information about a study conducted for the treatment and prevention of periodontal tissue diseases. The study involved 103 children diagnosed with chronic catarrhal gingivitis (CCG) and mild chronic periodontitis (MCP). Among them, 67 had chronic catarrhal gingivitis, and 36 had mild chronic periodontitis. The results of the treatment-preventive measures were evaluated in all three groups based on clinical observations and objective tests (OHI-S, PMA, PI ratios, and SBI index). Additionally, the microflora of the patients' periodontal pockets and local immunity indicators were investigated. The results of clinical and laboratory studies showed that treatment-preventive measures carried out with Loroben solution were more effective compared to those conducted with chlorhexidine-bigluconate solution. The functional activity of local immunity factors was more significantly recovered.

Abstract:
Gingivitis pubertas merupakan suatu peradangan gusi karena kondisi tertentu yang diklasifikasikan menurut faktor etiologi dan perubahan patologi. Peningkatan ukuran gingiva merupakan tanda adanya kelainan gingiva. Gingivektomi adalah pemotongan jaringan gingiva dengan membuang dinding lateral poket yang bertujuan untuk menghilangkan poket dan keradangan gingiva sehingga didapat gingiva yang fisiologis, fungsional dan estetik baik. Pada kasus ini, wanita berusia 16 tahun mengeluhkan keadaan gusi atas dan bawah yang membengkak sejak 1 tahun yang lalu, mudah berdarah dan tidak ada rasa nyeri. Penanganan untuk kasus ini dirancang menggunakan teknik gingivektomi menggunakan pisau periodontal dan gingivoplasty menggunakan electrocautery secara bertahap. Teknik gingivektomi menggunakan kombinasi scalpel dan electrocautery pada perawatan gingivitis pubertas memberikan hasil yang memuaskan secara estetik maupun fungsional pada pasien. ABSTRACT: Gingivectomy Using Scalpel and Electrocautery in Gingival Enlargement Treatment of Puberty Female. Puberty Gingivitis is a gum inflamation due to certain conditions that are classified by etiologic factors and pathological changes. The increase in gingival size is a sign of gingival disorder. Gingivectomy is cutting the gingival tissue by removing the lateral wall of the pocket which aims to eliminate pockets and gingival inflammation thus obtaining physiologically, functionally and aesthetically good gingiva. In this case, 16-year old woman complained of the state of the upper and lower gums which were swollen since the last one year, easily bleeding and no pain. The handling of this case was designed to use the technique of gingivecto by using periodontal knives and gingivoplasty by gradually using electrocautery. Gingivectomy technique with a combination of scalpel and electrocautery in puberty gingivitis treatment gives satisfactory results in aesthetic and functional state in patients.

Abstract:
Smoking patients show reduction of inflammatory clinical signs that might be associated with local vasoconstriction and an increased gingival epithelial thickness. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the thickness of the marginal gingival oral epithelium in smokers and non-smokers, with clinically healthy gingivae or with gingivitis. Twenty biopsies were obtained from four different groups. Group I: non-smokers with clinically healthy gingivae (n = 5). Group II: non-smokers with gingivitis (n = 5). Group III: smokers with clinically healthy gingivae (n = 5). Group IV: smokers with gingivitis (n = 5). These biopsies were histologically processed, serially sectioned at 5 mm, stained with H. E., and examined by image analysis software (KS400), which was used to perform the morphometric evaluation and the quantification of the major epithelial thickness, the epithelial base thickness and the external and internal epithelial perimeters. Differences between the four groups were analyzed using ANOVA test and Tukey's test. The criteria for statistical significance were accepted at the probability level p &lt; 0.05. A greater epithelial thickness was observed in smokers independent of the gingival health situation.

Abstract:
Background/Aim. Mast cells are mononuclear cells originating from bone marrow. They produce various biologically active substances, which allow them to actively participate in immune and inflammatory processes associated with periodontal disease. The study focused on distribution and density of mast cells in healthy gingiva as well as in different stages of periodontal disease. Methods. The material used for this purpose was gingival biopsies taken from 96 patients classified into 4 groups: healthy gingiva, gingivitis, initial and severe periodontal disease. Toluidine blue staining according to Spicer was utilized for identifying mast cells. Results. Basing on our study, the density of mast cells in the gingival tissue increases with the progression of the infection, which means they are more numerous in gingivitis compared to healthy gingiva, as well as in periodontal disease compared to gingivitis. Conclusion. Increase in the number of mast cells in the infected gingiva can be correlated with an increased influx of inflammatory cells from blood circulation into the gingival stroma, as well as with the collagen lysis, since these cells produce substances with collagenolytic potential. Based on the distribution of mast cells, it could be concluded that in the evolution of periodontal disease there are significant dynamic alterations in migration and localization of these cells.

Abstract:
Abstract Acute streptococcal gingivitis is an acute inflammation of the oral mucosa. Specific bacterial infections of the gingiva may be due to neisseria gonorrhea, treponema pallidum, streptococci, and other organisms. Streptococcal infections are seen rarely. This case report describes a patient who presented with severe gingival inflammation and pain that was diagnosed as an acute streptococcal infection. Bacterial cultures were obtained from the lesion, and biopsies were obtained from the gingiva of lower incisors for histopathologic evaluation. The patient was successfully treated using conventional periodontal therapy (scaling, root planning, curettage) and antibacterial agents. The reconstructive phase for this patient consisted of the fabrication of a heat-cured acrylic gingival facade to mask the gingival recession. The treatment of acute gingivostomatitis is of importance because of the possibility of systemic secondary infections. When esthetics is important, a gingival prostheses can be considered. The differential diagnosis, etiology, and treatment of acute streptococcal gingivitis are discussed and the literature is reviewed in this report.

Abstract:
This study aimed to confirm the presence of gingival inflammation through image analysis of the papillary gingiva using intra-oral photographs (IOPs) before and after orthodontic treatment and to confirm the possibility of using gingival image analysis for gingivitis screening. Five hundred and eighty-eight (n = 588) gingival sites from the IOPs of 98 patients were included. Twenty-five participants who had completed their orthodontic treatments and were aged between 20 and 37 were included. Six points on the papillary gingiva were selected in the maxillary and mandibular anterior incisors. The red/green (R/G) ratio values were obtained for the selected gingival images and the modified gingival index (GI) was compared. The change in the R/G values during the orthodontic treatment period appeared in the order of before orthodontic treatment (BO), mid-point of orthodontic treatment (MO), three-quarters of the way through orthodontic treatment (TO), and immediately after debonding (IDO), confirming that it was similar to the change in the GI. The R/G value of the gingiva in the image correlated with the GI. Therefore, it could be used as a major index for gingivitis diagnosis using images.

Abstract:
This randomized clinical study examined the influence of the gingival condition—healthy versus mild inflammation—on sulcus representation and possible gingival recession for two gingival displacement procedures prior to conventional impression making. The interventions double cord technique or a kaolin paste containing aluminum chloride were applied to 40 probands. The opposite quadrant served as intrapersonal reference (split-mouth design). Precision impressions were then made. Extraoral digitization of the plaster models resulting from the reference impression prior to gingival displacement, the intervention impression and control impressions were the basis for the computer-aided three-dimensional analysis. After six months, a mild artificial gingivitis was induced, and the contralateral quadrant (cross-over design) was examined for the intervention. The gingivitis deteriorated the sulcus representation for the double cord technique group but did not affect the paste technique group. The gingival condition had no influence on the marginal gingiva height changes. The minor extent of those changes, which were measured up to six months after intervention at the palatal study site, were not considered to be in the clinically relevant range for gingival recession. For healthy gingiva, the cord technique showed superior sulcus representation compared to the paste technique. This advantage was lost to a great extent under the conditions of mild gingivitis.

Abstract:
Abstract Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are proteins that stimulate the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. These proteins have been described in many pathologic and inflammatory conditions, but their involvement in the development of periodontitis has not been thoroughly investigated. This study compared the immunohistochemical expression of these proteins, involved in angiogenesis and hypoxia, by imunnostained inflammatory and endothelial cells in periodontal disease and healthy gingival tissues. Gingival tissue samples were divided as follows: 30 samples with chronic periodontitis, 30 with chronic gingivitis, and 30 of healthy gingiva. Results were analyzed statistically by the Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney and Spearman correlation tests (p=0.01). Inflammatory and endothelial cells were found to express these proteins. Periodontitis showed median percentage of HIF-1α-positive cells of 39.6%, 22.0% in cases of gingivitis and 0.9% in the healthy gingiva group (p=0.001). For VEGF, median percentage of immunopositive cells was 68.7% for periodontitis, 66.1% in cases for gingivitis, and 19.2% for healthy gingival specimens (p&lt;0.001). Significant correlation between VEGF and HIF-1α was also observed in healthy gingiva (p&lt;0.001).The increased expression of HIF-1αα and VEGF in periodontitis, compared to gingivitis and healthy gingiva, suggests possible activation of the HIF-1α pathway in advanced periodontal disease. The correlation between HIF-1α and VEGF expression in healthy gingiva suggests a physiological function for these proteins in conditions of homeostasis. In periodontal disease, HIF-1 and VEGF expression may be regulated by other factors, in addition to hypoxia, such as bacterial endotoxins and inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract:
Background: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic autoimmune disease sprinkled by T cells on the oral mucosal surface. The goal of OLP treatment is to eliminate erythema, ulceration and relieve symptoms. Corticosteroids are the first line in the treatment of OLP, either systemically or topically. The problem arises when using topical steroids, namely the time of topical steroid attachment to the oral mucosa, especially in cases of OLP with clinical desquamative gingivitis. Some studies suggest that the use of individual gingival tray can overcome this problem. Objective: To provide information on topical steroid use in OLP cases with desquamative gingivitis clinical signs.Case Management: Women, age 31, complain that pain with burning on the lips and mouth is aggravated by spicy food. Intraoral examination shows irregular white plaques on the buccal, labial and dorsal mucosa of the tongue accompanied by diffuse erythema in the anterior gingiva of the upper and lower jaws. Patients diagnosed with OLP. Lesions improve 3 months after topical steroid administration, except lesions on the gingiva. Gingival individual tray is then used to obtain adequate attachment of topical steroids on the gingiva surface. The gingiva showed significant improvement after a month later.Conclusion: The use of topical steroid concoctions applied to the gingival individual tray is effective in treating OLP lesions especially with clinical signs of desquamative gingivitis.

Abstract:
Background: The aim of this study is the clinical observation of gingival tissue condition after atelocollagen injection. Methods: In 18 patients, 97 gingival class I Miller recessions were divided according to recession height, gingival papillae loss and thickness of gingivae. Atelocollagen (Linerase, 100 mg) was injected into keratinized gingivae twice or thrice, at two-week intervals. Results: Statistically significant changes in gingival recession, amount of gingival papillae loss and thickness of gingiva were observed, after both two and three collagen injections. Although the degree (height) of recession decreased and gingival tissue thickness increased with every injection; there was no difference in gingival papillae loss between second and third collagen injections. Conclusions: The injectable form of atelocollagen is a promising material for gingival soft tissue regeneration and stimulation and allows for reduction in the number of procedures and support in a variety of surgical scenarios. This is a pilot study that clinically measures the impact of injected atelocollagen on periodontal tissue biotype, including the thickness of gingivae and gingival papillae regeneration.

Abstract:
Plasma cell gingivitis (PCG) is an uncommon benign gingival condition characterized by sharply defined erythematous and oedematous gingival lesions, often extending to the mucogingival junction. This hypersensitivity reaction presents as diffuse, papillary gingival inflammation, prone to bleeding upon minimal trauma. Histologically, PCG manifests as a dense infiltration of normal plasma cells within collagenous stroma, typically localized to the free and attached gingiva. The primary management approach involves identification and avoidance of the allergen source, alongside nonsurgical periodontal therapy. We report a 26-years-old female patient diagnosed clinically as plasma cell gingivitis and confirmed histologically. Surgical treatment along with pharmacological interventions resulted in complete resolution of symptoms. This case underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation and tailored treatment approaches in managing plasma cell gingivitis.

Abstract:
AIMS: This study aims to assess the frequency of thick and thin gingival biotypes and the width of attached gingiva (WAG) in a specific subset of the Pakistani population. METHODOLOGY: Anterior teeth in both arches were utilized for all the measurements of gingival type and width. The Gingival biotype was assessed by TRAN method at mid-buccal area of the tooth. To estimate the width of attached gingiva, pocket depth was subtracted from the total width of attached gingiva which is found from gingival margins to mucogingival junction. The data was entered and analyzed using SPSS version-20. RESULTS: Out of 400 participants, 56.3% (225) were male and 43.8% (175) were female. Among them, 57% had a thick gingival biotype, while 43% had a thin biotype. In the maxillary arch, younger age groups, particularly those aged 20-30, predominantly exhibited thick biotypes. The mandibular arch showed similar trends. The maximum average width in the maxillary arch was 5 mm. In the mandibular arch, the most common keratinized gingiva width was 4 mm. Gender comparisons revealed no significant relationship between the type of gingival tissue and the width of the keratinized gingiva in both arches. CONCLUSION: It has been demonstrated that thick biotype was more prevalent in population with maxillary arch having significant findings. However, the thickness of gingivae reduces with increasing age. KEYWORDS: Attached gingiva, gingival biotype, Gingival thickness, Trans gingival probing

Abstract:
Gingival enlargements are quite common and may be either inflammatory, noninflammatory, or a combination of both. Gingival hyperplasia is a bizarre condition causing esthetic, functional, psychological, and masticatory disturbances of the oral cavity. Causes of gingival enlargement can be due to plaque accumulation, due to poor oral hygiene, inadequate nutrition, or systemic hormonal stimulation (Bakaeen and Scully, 1998). It can occur as an isolated disease or as part of a syndrome or chromosomal abnormality. A progressive fibrous enlargement of the gingiva is a facet of idiopathic fibrous hyperplasia of the gingiva (Carranza and Hogan, 2002; Gorlin et al., 1976). It is described variously asfibromatosis gingivae, gingivostomatitis, hereditary gingival fibromatosis, idiopathic fibromatosis, familial elephantiasis,anddiffuse fibroma. We present a case of idiopathic gingival fibromatosis with its multidisciplinary approach of management.

Abstract:
Gingivitis is an inflammation of the soft tissues inoral cavity that invade the free gingival. There are two kinds of etiologies that can cause gingivitis, they are plaque and non-plaque. Pregnant women will have some maternal physiological changes during pregnancy, one of them is the increasing of estrogen and progesterone. It will cause the gingival tissue to react to irritant such as plaque excessively. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between gestational age and gingival index in pregnant women. This analytic correlation research used cross sectional approach. The gestational age were observed from Mom’s and Kid’s Health Book. The Gingival Index was observed by using Loe and Silness index to each pregnant woman’s oral cavity. Data was analysed by using Chi –square. The study took place in Andalas Public Health Center, from 16th February 2-15 until 26th February 2015. Most of the pregnant women had mild gingivitis, no pregnant women were found with healthy gingiva or severe gingivitis. The result showed that there was no significantly relationship between gestational age and gingival index in pregnant women (p&gt;0,005).

Abstract:
Background: Many patients refer to their load implants while there is no attached gingiva in the area of prosthetic implants – unlike the attached gingivae found with natural teeth. The important role played by gingiva in comforting the patient and preventing gingival inflammation has not been fully appreciated yet. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the attached gingival height with gingival inflammation and patients’ comfort. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted to examine 80 implants (Dio uf) placed in 63 patients. At least two months had passed since the patients had had implant crown. The patients were divided into three groups: attached gingiva, gingival up to 2 mm, and at least 2 mm of attached gingiva. Indices such as bleeding on probing (BOP), the amount of plaque, gingival index and patient comfort during brushing and chewing were evaluated. Statistical data were analyzed using the Kolmogorov– Smirnov test, Levene’s test and independent t-test. Results: By increasing the height of attached gingiva, decreases were observed in probing depth (P value=0.004), BOP (P value=0.001), the degree of plaque index (P value=0.006), and gingival index (P value=0.003); and this association was statistically quite significant. By increasing the attached gingiva height, furthermore, the patients felt less discomfort when brushing and chewing; however, the findings were not statistically significant in terms of patients’ comfort during chewing (P value=0.364). Conclusions: Increasing the height of attached gingiva reduced the symptoms of gingival inflammation, but increased patients’ comfort when chewing and brushing.

Abstract:
Gingivitis is a mild periodontal disease accompanied by clinical symptoms in the form of red gingiva. The incidence of gingivitis in Indonesia ranks second with 96.58%, while in Central Java it is 25.8%. The main cause of gingivitis is the lack of maintaining oral and dental hygiene, marked by the accumulation of plaque and tartar around the teeth which can be removed by regular brushing and scaling using tools and drugs made from chemicals. The chemicals are considered to have side effects when used for a long time. Many people now choose natural ingredients or herbal ingredients. One of the natural ingredients that can be used for treatment is coconut (Virgin Coconut Oil / VCO). The aim of producing VCO as an alternative ingredient for gingivitis therapy (Laboratory study). This research is a laboratory experiment with a post-test only control group research design. VCO gel is made from fresh coconuts which are processed into VCO by natural fermentation, which is then mixed with NaCMC added Treatanolamin (TEA) and dissolved with glycerin to get VCO in gel form. The research subjects were 24 Rattus Norvegicus. divided into 4 groups, namely the lauric treatment group, the myristic acid treatment group, the combined lauric and myristic acid group and the control group. Experimental animals acclimatized for 5 days were induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis bacteria in LPS (Lipopolysaccharide) preparation in the gingival sulcus of the lower right first incisor as much as 0.01 ml. Experimental animals that have experienced inflammation are then treated with VCO gel. During the fourteen days after drug administration, observations were made on the healing of gingivitis by examining swelling, discoloration of the gingiva, bleeding on the gingiva and histopathological examination using a light microscope with 400x magnification. Post-treatment observation, experimental animals were observed or observed for 14 days. The results of observations are recorded in the observation checklist sheet where the examination of the condition of the gingiva is based on the Modified Gingival Index (MGI). Experimental animals were observed or observed for 14 days.

Abstract:
Effect of taking mangosteen peel extract (Garcinia mangostana L.) supplement on gingival inflammation in fixed orthodontic patients (A study of leukocyte count of gingival crevicular fluid). Patients with fixed orthodontic appliances have a high risk of gingival inflammation. Gingival inflammation is characterized by an increase in leukocyte count of gingival crevicular fluid resulting in proinflammatory cytokines that are capable of damaging the gingival tissue. Mangosteen peel (Garcinia mangostana L) contains xantone which has anti-inflammatory properties. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of consuming mangosteen peel extract (Garcinia mangostana L) supplement on gingival inflammation in patients with fixed orthodontic by studying the leukocyte counts of gingival crevicularuid. Twenty patients with fixed orthodontic appliances were divided into two groups: 10 subjects in the control group and 10 subjects in the treatment group. They were selected based on the following criteria: age 18-24 years, suffering from mild to moderate gingivitis, and using fixed orthodontic appliances in the final phase. The subjects in both groups underwent initial therapy in the form of scaling, then the subjects in the treatment group took 2 capsules of mangosteen peel extract supplements three times a day for seven days. The sampling of gingival crevicular fluid of both groups was taken on day 0 and 8 in the lower anterior region, that is 3 samples of gingival crevicular fluid per subject. Leukocytes were seen from the results of staining with Turk’s reagents through microscope with a magnification of 400 times. The average leukocyte counts were analyzed using Pair T-test and Independent Sample T-test. The results showed that taking mangosteen peel extract (Garcinia mangostana L) supplements has significant effect on the decrease in leukocyte counts of gingival crevicular fluids (p&lt;0.05). The conclusion of this study is the consumption of mangosteen peel extract (Garcinia mangostana L) supplement signicantly influences the reduction of gingival inflammation in patients with fixed orthodontic appliances, evident from the decline in the leukocyte counts of gingival crevicular fluids. ABSTRAKPasien pemakai ortodonti cekat memiliki resiko tinggi mengalami inflamasi gingiva. Inflamasi gingiva ditandai dengan meningkatnya jumlah leukosit cairan sulkus gingiva yang menghasilkan sitokin proinflamasi yang mampu merusak jaringan gingiva. Kulit manggis (Garcinia mangostana L) mengandung xantone yang memiliki sifat antiinflamasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsumsi suplemen ekstrak kulit manggis (Garcinia mangostanaL) terhadap inflamasi gingiva pada pasien ortodonti cekat dengan kajian jumlah leukosit pada cairan sulkus gingiva. Dua puluh pasien ortodonti cekat dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, 10 subjek pada kelompok kontrol dan 10 subjek pada kelompok perlakuan yang diseleksi berdasarkan kriteria: usia 18-24 tahun, menderita gingivitis ringan hingga sedang, dan menggunakan alat ortodonti cekat pada fase akhir. Subjek pada kedua kelompok dilakukan initial therapy berupa scaling, kemudian subjek pada kelompok perlakuan mengkonsumsi suplemen ekstrak kulit manggis 2 kapsul 3 kali sehari selama 7 hari. Pengambilan sampel cairan sulkus gingiva kedua kelompok dilakukan pada hari ke-0 dan ke-8 pada regio anterior bawah sebanyak 3 sampel cairan sulkus gingiva tiap subjek. Leukosit dilihat dari hasil pewarnaan reagen Turk melalui mikroskop dengan perbesaran 400 kali. Hasil rerata jumlah leukosit dianalisis menggunakan uji Pair T-test dan uji Independent Sample T-test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mengkonsumsi suplemen ekstrak kulit manggis (Garcinia mangostana L) berpengaruh terhadap penurunan jumlah leukosit cairan sulkus gingiva secara signifikan (p &lt; 0,05). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah konsumsi suplemen ekstrak kulit manggis (Garcinia mangostana L) berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap penurunan inflamasi gingiva pada pasien ortodonti cekat dilihat dari penurunan jumlah leukosit cairan sulkus gingivanya.

Abstract:
Introduction: Elephantiasis Gingivae otherwise known as Heriditary gingival fibromatosis, Idiopathic gingival fibromatosis, is a very rare clinical condition characterized by local or diffuse enlargement of the gingiva. It is usually benign, painless, slow in growth, fibrous and may involve marginal gingiva, attached gingiva and interdental papilla. The gingiva tissue appears normal in color, non-hemorrhagic, firm and has a characteristic “pebbled” appearance with accentuation of its stippling. Case presentation: This report aimed to present a case of a 14years old girl who presented with a complaint of gingival swelling for a period of four years. There was no history of similar swelling in the family, no prior drug history of significance. The patient was totally dependent of semisolid and liquid diet as the teeth were embedded in the gingiva. Esthetics was the primary concern of the patient despite the fact that there was difficulty in taking solid food. Gingivectomy was done under general anesthesia. Conclusion: Surgical approach under general anesthesia may be considered when the size and posterior extent of the gingival swelling are enormous to avoid incomplete surgical excision which may contribute to early recurrence. Limitation: The long term success of the intervention could not be ascertained as the patient was lost to follow-up after one month.

Abstract:
Background. The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of local and systemic inflammation on the quantity and localization of gingival mesenchymal stem cells (gMSCs). Methods. Gingival samples were collected from 34 systemically healthy (group 1) and 10 consenting adult patients with type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (group 2), who had reported for various dental treatments, requiring excision of gingival tissues as part thereof. The tissue samples were further stratified into three categories: healthy gingiva, gingivitis-affected and periodontitis-affected. Samples mounted on slides were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&amp;amp;amp;E) while CD105 antibody was used for immunohistochemistry staining. Immuno-positive cells were identified as gMSCs. Three gMSCpopulated areas in each sample were selected to determine the density of gMSCs. Results. The density of gMSCs was significantly higher (P&lt;0.05) in sections of gingival tissues affected by gingivitis and periodontitis compared to those of normal gingiva. However, there were no significant differences in the densities of gMSCs in tissues of patients with T2DM and those of healthy subjects. Conclusion. Local inflammatory status appeared to increase the density of gMSCs. In the presence of periodontitis, an added low-grade systemic inflammation (T2DM) did not appear to affect the density of gMSCs.

Abstract:
Background: Healthy teeth, their supporting structures and gingiva play an important role in oral health. Gingivitis progresses to periodontitis in a phased manner causing continuous deterioration. In severe cases, removal of the tooth becomes inevitable. Hence, if gingivitis and periodontitis can be identified and treated earlier, tooth loss can be minimized.&#x0D; Aim: To assess the status of oral hygiene, gingival and periodontal health of Urban population of Kathmandu district.&#x0D; Materials and methods: Data on cross-sectional study of 252 individuals was collected using pre-designed survey form utilizing Gingival Index, Oral Hygiene Index–Simplified and Community Periodontal Index. Collected data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.&#x0D; Results: An urban population of 126 males and 126 females were examined in Kathmandu for this survey. In this study, 55.6% were of age-group 20-39 years while 44.4% were of 40-60 years, 35.31% and 54.76% of individuals had good and fair oral hygiene respectively &amp; 49.20% of them had deposition of calculus and 25% had loss of attachment of 4-5mm. Only 16.6% were having healthy gingiva whereas 52.38% had mild and 26.5% had moderate gingivitis. Statistically significant results of all above are seen with advancement of age (p&lt;0.05).&#x0D; Conclusion: Results show that gingival and periodontal diseases are widely distributed in urban population. Hence, appropriate preventive and periodic therapies should be employed.

Abstract:
Gingival conditions of 1323 junior high schoolchildren aged 12-15 were examined, and 132 children who had either healthy gingivae or severe gingivitis were called to the clinic. More precise examination of gingivitis was performed by assessment of Jackson's gingivitis index (G.I.), probing depth (P.D.), and bleeding on probing. Whole saliva was collected, and the salivary concentrations of estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone were determined by radioimmunoassay. Subgingival bacterial plaque was sampled from 36 children, and total bacterial counts and morphological differentiation were performed under a phase-contrast microscope. For statistical analysis, both males and females were divided into two groups according to the concentration of each sex hormone and subgrouped by the results of clinical examinations. Chi-square analysis using 2-by-2 tables was performed to determine the relation between salivary steroid hormone levels and gingival inflammation. The results suggest that unbalanced secretion of certain hormones might be one of the factors promoting gingivitis at puberty.

Abstract:
Background: Gingivitis is an inflammatory reaction that occurs in gingival tissue. Based on 2018 RISKESDAS data, gingivitis case that occurs in Indonesia reaches 13,9%. The prevalence of gingivitis in South Kalimantan is higher than Indonesia’s, that is 14,2%. The bad habit of mantaining oral health causes plaque accumulation on the marginal gingiva, which resulting in gingivitis. The said condition also affects disabled people, one of which is blind people. Tooth brushing intervention can be done in various kind. One of the recommended methods is the roll technique that effectively cleans plaque and can mantain gum health. Purpose: To analyze the effectiveness of the roll tooth-brushing technique toward the gingival health status (gingival index) of totally blind people. Methods: This research used quasi-experimental research method with non-equivalent control group design. The sampling technique was using purposive sampling with total samples were 15 people. This research was conducted in 21 days with 9 times encounter. The time span of each encounter is once in every 2 days. Gingival index examination used gingival index. The data analysis in this research was using Mann Whitney Test. Result: The Mann Whitney test result shows that p-value is 0,018, which is smaller than the alpha value that is 0,05 (p&lt;0,05) which means that there is a difference between the case group that was given with socialization and roll brushing technique and the control group that was not given the said socialization and treatment. Conclusion: The roll tooth-brushing technique is effective for gingival health status (gingival index) of totally blind people.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTAcute streptococcal gingivitis is an acute inflammation of the oral mucosa and also may be seen with the other oral diseases as aggressive periodontitis that is characterized by a considerable attachment loss over a relatively short period of time. Streptococcal infections of gingiva are seen rarely; also the origin of this gingival inflammation is occasionally different from that of routine plaque-associated gingivitis. The clinical features and treatment methods of these diseases are already reported in previous literatures. This case report describes a patient who presented with severe gingival inflammation and attachment loss that was diagnosed as an acute streptococcal infection associated with aggressive periodontitis. In this study a supportive treatment option was demonstrated based on these data and antacid treatment as adjunctive to the recommended treatment modalities was used for streptococcal gingivitis.

Abstract:
Abstract Desquamative gingivitis is a condition characterized by intense erythema, ulceration, and desquamation of the free and attached gingiva. Approximately 50% of desquamative gingivitis cases occur on the gingival tissues though it is not uncommon at other intraoral and extraoral sites. Though topical corticosteroids are considered the mainstays in the treatment of desquamative gingivitis, the inability of these medicaments to be in contact with the affected sites for longer duration has been implicated as a factor in reducing the efficacy of this mode of treatment. The case presented here is of a 24-year old male with desquamative gingivitis of 3 years duration. Topical corticosteroid therapy using custom-made acrylic veneers was utilized in the patient with remarkable results. This paper highlights the use of acrylic labial veneers over the gingival tissue as a vehicle for delivering medication and as a way to improve aesthetics. Citation Chandra RV, Pandurang P, Bhat KM.

Abstract Aim The aim of this article is to present a brief review of plasma cell gingivitis (PCG) along with reports of three cases with varying clinical presentations of the condition associated with the use of herbal toothpaste. Background PCG is a rare benign condition of the gingiva characterized by sharply demarcated erythematous and edematous gingivitis often extending to the mucogingival junction. This is considered a hypersensitive reaction. The histological appearance consists of a dense infiltration of normal plasma cells separated by collagenous stroma, usually confined to the free and attached gingiva. The lesion can be eliminated by identifying and avoiding the source of the allergen. Report Three patients ages 26, 27, and 36, respectively, presented with acutely inflamed gingival and a history of recently switching to herbal toothpaste. The gingiva bled readily on probing. Blood tests and gingival biopsy were not contributory. Patients were advised to refrain from the use of herbal toothpaste, and, along with periodontal treatment, the condition underwent remission within a week to two weeks in all three cases. Summary As more and more herbal products are gaining popularity, clinicians should be aware of some of the untoward effects of these products. Since PCG mimics lesions associated with leukemia and myeloma an early diagnosis of the condition is vital. Citation Anil S.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between marginal gingivitis, oral hygiene parameters, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in gingival crevicular fluid of 40 children. The marginal periodontal pathology was evaluated by gingival index (GI). The status of oral hygiene was estimated by using patient hygiene performance (PHP), brushing frequency (BF), and plaque index (PI). IL-6 levels in gingival crevicular fluid were measured to evaluate the inflammation in marginal gingiva. PHP score showed a significant correlation with GI, BF, and PI. The groups based on PHP ranges were significantly related to IL-6 concentration in crevicular fluid.

Abstract:
Desquamative gingivitis is a clinical condition with a chronic course, not specific to a particular disease, characterized by intense erythema, scaling, vesicles, and/or blisters that may involve both the marginal free gingiva (MG) and the neighboring adherent gingiva (AG). This scoping review aimed to investigate whether there is a correlation between oral hygiene and gingival lesions induced by autoimmune diseases of the oral cavity and whether periodontal disease can negatively influence a clinical picture of desquamative gingivitis due to an immune disorder of the oral cavity. Case series studies and randomized controlled trials were considered for this scoping review; studies that did not comply with the inclusion criteria were excluded. A total of seven studies were selected for this review. The PRISMA-ScR (preferred reporting items for scoping reviews) consensus has been followed. Based on the included studies, it is possible to state that improvement in disease and patient-reported outcomes may be the result of appropriate oral hygiene education when patients are found to have autoimmune diseases with gingival manifestations.

Abstract:
Inflammatory gingival enlargement is an excessive growth of gingival tissue due to inflammation in response to plaque accumulation. Enlargement of gingiva hampers the efficiency of daily oral hygiene practices which in turn accumulates more plaque, thus causing inflammation. Phase I therapy, consisting of scaling and root planning only reduces the inflammatory component of the enlarged gingival tissues but the fibrotic gingival enlargement remaining thereafter is then removed surgically by gingivectomy. Apart from the conventional scalpel gingivectomy, many other treatment modalities such as gingivectomy by lasers and electrocautery are now being widely used in the field of surgical periodontal therapy. This case report describes the management of gingival enlargement in relation with gingivae of maxillary teeth by administering separate treatment modalities i.e. diode laser and conventional scalpel gingivectomy.
