Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
A mucogingival deformity refers to a significant departure from the normal shape of gingiva, alveolar mucosa and the underlying alveolar bone Mucogingival deformities can be classified as congenital, developmental, or acquired defects. These may arise around natural teeth, implants and edentulous ridges.1,2 It includes various conditions such as gingival recession, lack of keratinized gingiva, decreased vestibular depth or shallow vestibule or inadequate vestibule depth, aberrant frenum or muscle position and gingival excess. Among these deformities, shallow vestibule is the most frequently encountered abnormality and is often associated with plaque accumulation consequently leading to marginal gingival inflammation. This condition is particularly seen on the labial aspect in the mandibular anterior region and it creates problem not only periodontally but also prosthetically.
