Disease relevance of Gingival Pocket

 

High impact information on Gingival Pocket

 

Chemical compound and disease context of Gingival Pocket

  • During the six weeks of occlusal disorder, however, a marked increase in the number of inflammatory cells, as well as epithelial proliferation and deepening of the gingival pocket in the gingival sulcus area, was observed in one-third of the experimental animals [8].
 

Gene context of Gingival Pocket

  • The SMR-children had a considerably higher frequency of inflamed gingival surfaces and pathological gingival pockets than the control children [9].
  • Based on morphologic and structural interpretation, the PMNs in the local lesion in JP seemed 1) to have a different morphology from the PMNs of AP lesions, 2) to be capable of ingesting bacteria, 3) to accumulate in gingival pockets in numbers as high as in AP, and 4) to be overwhelmed by the challenge of bacteria and bacterial aggregates [10].
