Item Assessment of gingival thickness in the maxillary anterior region using different techniques(2022) Yilmaz, Mediha Nur Nisanci; Secgin, Cansu Koseoglu; Ozemre, Mehmet Ozgur; Inonu, Elif; Aslan, Serhat; Bulut, Sule; 35796801Objectives Gingival phenotype is closely related to treatment success and aesthetic results in the maxillary anterior region. Several methods were proposed to measure the dimensions of the gingival tissue. This study aimed to evaluate the gingival thickness using clinical and radiographic techniques and to explore the association between gingival thickness and gingival phenotypes classified by color-coded phenotype probes. Materials and methods The gingival thickness of 86 periodontally healthy maxillary anterior teeth was assessed using transgingival probing (TGP) and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The gingival phenotype was classified as thin, medium, thick, or very thick by transparency of the color-coded probes through the gingival sulcus. The labial alveolar bone thickness was measured on CBCT images. The keratinized tissue width (KTW) was recorded. Results Good to excellent agreement was found between TGP and CBCT regarding the thickness of the gingiva (p<0.001). There was a very high correlation between the phenotypes determined by color-coded probes and the gingival thickness measured by TGP (r=0.953, p<0.001). KTW was significantly higher in thick and very thick phenotype groups compared with thin phenotype group. Conclusion Cone-beam computed tomography images and the probe transparency method with color-coded probes are reliable for identifying the gingival phenotype in the maxillary anterior region, based on comparisons to direct transgingival probing.Item Evaluation of the Effect of Periodontitis on Quality of Life Using Oral-Dental Health-Related Quality of Life-United Kingdom Scale(2021) Kutsal, Derya; Cetin, Mehtap Bilgin; Durukan, Elif; Bulut, Sule; 0000-0002-8579-5564; 33797852; AAJ-8621-2021Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of periodontitis on oral health-related quality of life (OHQoL) using Oral-Dental Health-Related Quality of Life-United Kingdom (OHRQoL-UK) scale and evaluate the contributing factors. Methods 50 patients with untreated periodontitis and 50 individuals without periodontitis were enrolled in the study. All subjects received detailed periodontal examination. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) measurements were examined. OHRQoL was assessed by the Oral Health Quality of Life-United Kingdom (OHRQoL-UK) scale. Symptoms of periodontitis were monitored by visual analogue scale (VAS). Socio-demographic characteristics, medical history, smoking status, hygiene habits of the participants were recorded. This study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov as NCT04240014. Results Total OHRQoL-UK scores were 38.24 +/- 6.47 in periodontitis patients and 55.88 +/- 9.38 in non-periodontitis individuals (p < 0.001). The scores of all 4 parameters were significantly lower in patients with periodontitis compared to healthy individuals (p <0.001). Higher PI, GI, PD and CAL values were associated with extensive negative impacts of periodontitis on OHRQoL (p < 0.001). According to the results of linear regression analysis, only periodontitis was found to associate with OHRQoL. Periodontal disease reduces the total quality of life score by 15.087 (ss= -15.087; 95% CI = [(-18.934)-(-11.240)]. Conclusions Individuals with periodontitis has diminished OHRQoL compared to healthy individuals.Item Impact of stage-grade of periodontitis and self-reported symptoms on oral health-related quality of life(2021) Yilmaz, Mediha Nur Nisanci; Bulut, Sule; Bakirarar, Batuhan; 0000-0002-6410-2060; 34478610Objectives The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of stage-grade of periodontitis and self-reported signs and symptoms on oral health-related quality of life. Methods The diagnosis of periodontitis was based on the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions. The Turkish version of Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) was used to assess oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and the participants were requested to state their symptoms associated with periodontal diseases. Results One hundred and sixty-six patients were included in the study with a mean age of 46.54 +/- 9.24 years. The participants with Stage IV and Grade C periodontitis had the highest total OHIP-14 scores (median 20.00 [min.-max, 3.00-35.00] and median 18.50 (min.-max, 0.00-36.00]; respectively). The OHIP-14 scores (mean +/- SD) were significantly associated with the symptoms of bleeding gums (13.64 +/- 9.39), sore gums (18.00 +/- 10.47), swollen gums (17.42 +/- 10.91), bad breath (15.82 +/- 9.44), loose teeth (20.00 +/- 8.66) and drifting teeth (24.56 +/- 8.46). Conclusions This study demonstrates a significant association between OHRQoL and periodontitis. Stage-grade of periodontitis and its symptoms were associated with poor quality of life.
