Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Sample Composition
2.2. Inclusion Criteria
- Inflammation caused by systemic factors; a typical example is represented by pregnancy or by hormonal upheavals such as puberty or menstruation.
- Phlogistic-hyperplastic alterations in conjunction with the intake of antiepileptics, calcium channel blockers, and cyclosporine.
- Gingivitis caused by the use of oral contraceptives.
- Gingivitis modified by systemic diseases.
- Gingivitis affecting patients with diabetes mellitus.
- Gingivitis associated with disorders of the blood picture (e.g., leukemia).
- Plaque gingivitis modified by malnutrition, such as chronic deficiency of vitamins A, C, and D (although they seem to occur rarely in Europe).
2.3. Procedure
- mandible
- maxilla
- buccal occlusal registration
- Partial scan of the arch: several teeth in the preparation area on the mandible and maxilla, and a buccal occlusal registration.
- Complete scan of the arch: maxilla, mandible and buccal occlusal registration.
2.4. Statistic Analysis
2.5. Treatment of the Collected Data
