An intact lamina dura is seen as a sign of healthy periodontium.

Forces that exceed the adaptive capacity of the periodontium produce injury called trauma from occlusion.

The tooth is supported in bone by an attachment apparatus, known as the periodontium, which interacts with the root.

Periodontitis is an inflammation of the periodontium, i.e., the tissues that support the teeth.

The periodontium consists of the structures that surround and support the teeth, including the gums and bones.

Other oral complications typically include infections of the mucosa, dentition/periapices, and periodontium.

Abscesses of the periodontium are localized acute bacterial infections classified primarily based on location.

Dental trauma refers to trauma to the face, mouth, and especially the teeth, lips and periodontium.

The periodontium consists of four tissues:

In addition, it may be the precursor of other cells of the periodontium, including osteoblasts, cementoblasts and fibroblasts.

For human teeth to have a healthy oral environment, enamel, dentin, cementum, and the periodontium must all develop during appropriate stages of fetal development.

Teeth are surrounded by gingiva, or gums, part of the periodontium, support tissue of oral cavity protection.

Destructions of periodontium follows almost immediately after the eruption of last molar tooth .

This presents as an acute infection of the gingiva without involvement of the other tissues of the periodontium.

If left untreated, this process may lead to a deepening of the sulcus, recession, destruction of the periodontium, and tooth loss.

Stomatitis refers to any inflammatory condition of oral tissue, including mucosa, dentition/periapices, and periodontium.

Thus, neutropenic mouthcare protocols that reduce microbial colonization of the dentition and periodontium are important during myelosuppression.

Other oral sites, including the dentition, periapices, and periodontium, can also become acutely infected during myelosuppression secondary to high-dose chemotherapy.

The primary purpose of a periodontal probe is to measure pocket depths around a tooth in order to establish the state of health of the periodontium.

LGE is limited to the soft tissue of the periodontium, appearing as a red line 2-3 mm in width adjacent to the free gingival margin.

And despite being defined as being a "noninflammatory destruction of the periodontium," almost all cases did exhibit varying degrees of gingival inflammation.

The periodontium, which is the supporting structure of a tooth, consists of the cementum, periodontal ligaments, gingiva, and alveolar bone.

In gingivitis, inflammation localized to the supracrestal region of the periodontium leads to ulceration of the junctional epithelium.

The supporting tissues are known as the periodontium, which includes the gingiva (gums), alveolar bone, cementum, and the periodontal ligament.

The periodontium is the supporting structure of a tooth, helping to attach the tooth to surrounding tissues and to allow sensations of touch and pressure.
