Gingival recession (GR) has a multifactorial etiology, resulting from the interaction of various factors. It affects aesthetics and comfort, and has negative consequences for quality of life. The main objective of this study is to investigate the prevalence of gingival recession in a sample of the population in northern Portugal, according to the classification system proposed by Cairo. The secondary objective is to investigate possible risk factors for the prevalence of gingival recession. This observational study analyzed 50 patients who met all our inclusion criteria. Participants underwent a clinical periodontal examination and completed a questionnaire. On the lingual/palatine side, recession type 2 (RT2) was the most prevalent (39.1%), and on the buccal side, recession type 3 (RT3) was the most prevalent (37.7%). Statistically significant differences were found in the occurrence of RT3 on both sides, buccal and lingual/palatine, which was higher in patients over 65. Buccal side RT2 and buccal and lingual/palatine side RT3 were more prevalent in males. Buccal side RT2 was more prevalent in ex-smokers compared to nonsmokers. RT3 was more prevalent in ex-smokers compared to smokers and nonsmokers. Most patients have gingival recession with loss of interproximal attachment. Older age, male gender, high plaque levels, and smoking habits are considered risk factors.
牙龈退缩（GR）病因多因素，由多种因素相互作用导致。它影响美观和舒适度，对生活质量有负面影响。本研究的主要目的是根据开罗提出的分类系统，调查葡萄牙北部某人群样本中牙龈退缩的患病率。次要目的是调查牙龈退缩患病率的可能风险因素。这项观察性研究分析了50名符合所有纳入标准的患者。参与者接受了临床牙周检查并完成了一份问卷。在舌侧/腭侧，2型退缩（RT2）最为常见（39.1%），在颊侧，3型退缩（RT3）最为常见（37.7%）。在颊侧和舌侧/腭侧两侧RT3的发生率上发现了统计学上的显著差异，65岁以上患者中更高。颊侧RT2以及颊侧和舌侧/腭侧的RT3在男性中更为普遍。与非吸烟者相比，颊侧RT2在曾经吸烟者中更为普遍。与吸烟者和非吸烟者相比，RT3在曾经吸烟者中更为普遍。大多数患者存在牙龈退缩并伴有邻面附着丧失。年龄较大、男性、牙菌斑水平高和吸烟习惯被认为是风险因素。
