Clinical and microbiological effects of subgingival restorations with overhanging or clinically perfect margins

Clinical and microbiological effects of subgingival restorations with overhanging or clinically... Abstract The close association between restorations with overhanging margins and chronic destructive periodontitis has been known for many years. However, the mechanisms by which overhanging restorations will interact in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease are still unknown. Generally it is accepted that overhanging restorations contribute to the promotion of the disease process by virtue of their capacity to retain bacterial plaque. The purpose of the present study was to determine if the placement of subgingival restorations with overhanging margins results in changes in the subgingival microflora. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Clinical Periodontology Wiley
