Limited information is available regarding the attached keratinized tissue, probing depth, and sociodemographic characteristics of primary teeth. This study was carried out to evaluate the relationship among age, gender, race, gingival width, and probing depth in each primary tooth type.
The study population consisted of 300 children, aged 4 to 6 years, with clinically healthy gingiva, who were enrolled in an oral health program. Gingival width and probing depth were measured with a standard Williams periodontal probe in the middle of the keratinized gingiva and at six gingival sites (mesio-buccal, mid-buccal, disto-buccal, mesio-lingual, mid-lingual, and disto-lingual), respectively. Schiller's solution was used to establish the limits of keratinized gingiva.
The gingival width (mean +/- SD) on the buccal surfaces decreased from anterior to posterior positions in both arches; in the lower lingual surfaces, the inverse was observed. The gingival width (mean +/- SD) ranged from 2.95 +/- 0.15 mm to 6.16 +/- 0.20 mm and the probing depth from 1.03 +/- 0.91 mm to 2.08 +/- 0.07 mm. There was a tendency toward increased probing depth as age increased from 4 to 6 years. There was also an increase in the probing depth from anterior to posterior teeth.
In the majority of observations, it was concluded that there was a relationship among age, gingival width, and probing depth, but generally not among race and gender and these measurements, respectively. Furthermore, there is no relation between gender and gingival width and race and probing depth.
关于乳牙附着角化组织、探诊深度和社会人口学特征的信息有限。本研究旨在评估各乳牙类型中年龄、性别、种族、牙龈宽度和探诊深度之间的关系。
研究人群包括300名4至6岁临床牙龈健康的儿童，他们参加了一项口腔健康项目。分别在角化牙龈中部和六个牙龈部位（近中颊侧、颊侧中部、远中颊侧、近中舌侧、舌侧中部和远中舌侧）用标准的威廉姆斯牙周探针测量牙龈宽度和探诊深度。使用席勒溶液确定角化牙龈的界限。
在两个牙弓中，颊面的牙龈宽度（均值±标准差）从前向后位置减小；在下颌舌面观察到相反情况。牙龈宽度（均值±标准差）范围为2.95±0.15mm至6.16±0.20mm，探诊深度为1.03±0.91mm至2.08±0.07mm。随着年龄从4岁增加到6岁，探诊深度有增加的趋势。从前牙到后牙探诊深度也增加。
在大多数观察中，得出年龄、牙龈宽度和探诊深度之间存在关系的结论，但种族和性别与这些测量值之间通常不存在关系。此外，性别与牙龈宽度以及种族与探诊深度之间没有关系。
