When the clinical crowns of teeth are dimensionally inadequate, esthetically and biologically acceptable restoration of these dental units is difficult. Often an acceptable restoration cannot be accomplished without first surgically increasing the length of the existing clinical crowns; therefore, successful management requires an understanding of both the dental and periodontal parameters of treatment. This report provides further insight into this interdependence by examining the effects of tooth form on the periodontal morphology and surgical treatment, while relating them to requirements for esthetically and biologically acceptable full-coverage dental restorations. This report also explains the role that restoration margin location and emergence profile play in the maintenance of periodontal and dental symbiosis. The effects of violation of the supracrestal gingivae by improper full-coverage restorations is also illustrated.

Peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implantitis, affect up to 47% of dental implant recipients, primarily due to biofilm formation. Current decontamination methods vary in efficacy, prompting interest in polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) for their antimicrobial and protein-specific cleaning properties. This study evaluated the efficacy of polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) in decontaminating titanium dental implants by removing proteinaceous pellicle layers and resisting recontamination.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of using melatonin and vitamin C as adjuncts to the non-surgical treatment of chronic periodontitis.
Materials And Methods: This triple-blind randomized clinical trial involved 100 participants with chronic periodontitis. Subjects were randomly assigned to three groups: (1) non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) alone (n = 33); (2) NSPT with melatonin (n = 33); and (3) NSPT with melatonin and vitamin C (n = 34).

Introduction And Aim: Periodontal disease, initiated by dental biofilm and influenced by various local and systemic factors, includes stress as a potential contributor to its progression. Despite associations with severe forms like acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis, a comprehensive large-sample study linking stress to periodontal disease is lacking. This study aims to investigate the relationship between mental health and periodontal disease.

Background And Objective: Periodontitis and dental caries are among the most prevalent oral diseases, with chronic periodontitis being a multifactorial, infectious condition that leads to inflammation in the supporting structures of the teeth, progressive attachment loss, and bone resorption. Chronic periodontitis is driven by a consortium of pathogenic microorganisms. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of virgin coconut oil (VCO) pulling in reducing the microbial load and inflammatory mediators responsible for chronic periodontitis, in comparison to chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash and distilled water.

Background: Menopause is an important milestone in the women's life continuum and is associated with potentially adverse effects, including those related to oral health. This study assessed self-reported periodontal disease in relation to menopausal status.
Methods: A cross-sectional study involving a convenience sample of female university dental hospital attendees was conducted using a validated, self-administered, self-reported periodontal disease questionnaire.
