Gingival invagination is an alteration of the ginviva often observed during orthodontic space closure. This finding appears as a "pseudopocket" which can be probed both horizontally and vertically. The objective of this systematic literature review was to present information on the etiology and intermediate and long-term sequelae of gingival invagination, together with possible approaches to its prevention and treatment. To find currently available literature a MeSH term search in the PubMed literature database was carried out, complemented by manual search in selected dental journals and in the reference lists of the identified articles. Only few articles on gingival invagination were identified. Those that were found displayed different levels of evidence which made a quantitative evaluation impossible. The results are summarized and discussed in light of this information.
牙龈内陷是正畸关闭间隙过程中经常观察到的牙龈改变。这一表现为一个“假性牙周袋”,可进行水平和垂直探诊。本系统文献综述的目的是介绍牙龈内陷的病因、中期和长期后遗症,以及预防和治疗的可能方法。为查找当前可用文献,在PubMed文献数据库中进行了医学主题词检索,并辅以在选定牙科期刊及已识别文章的参考文献列表中的手动检索。仅识别出少量关于牙龈内陷的文章。所发现的文章显示出不同程度的证据,无法进行定量评估。根据这些信息对结果进行了总结和讨论。
