ABSTRACT

Aim: to show the association of malformed teeth with periodontal health.
Materials and methods: total of 350 patients were examined, of both genders, aged 17 to 45 years, 105 patients were selected for this study with the presence of a mapped tooth and periodontal problem. For each patient, first a visual inspection is performed to determine the type of malignant tooth / teeth and immediately afterwards, a periodontal diagnosis is made, compared to the following clinical parameters: bleeding at diagnosis during sowing, loss of paradental adaptation, and depth at suturing.
To all was made a statistical analysis with numerical marks, Descriptive statistics (minimum, maximum values, standard deviation and coefficient of variation). The Chi-square test was also used for the analysis, and when the conditions for its use were not met, the correct test fissure was used. The significance level is set at 5.0%.
Results: The most common anomalies present in this study are: tooth/teeth rotations with 76.9%, 48.9% compactness and mesial inclination of the molar with 47.8%. Distribution of pathological periodontal changes has been shown in patients with the presence of mesial inclination of the molar /molars, and have 100% chronic marginal gingivitis, in isolated buccal inclination of the tooth with 71.8%, increase in gingiva in some areas with density in the frontal region with 47.8 %, and with chronic periodontitis with 48.9%. In all of the types, only the isolated buccal inclined teeth and the over-protrusion of the maxillary incisor were significantly associated with gingival recession (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: From the selected sample with different types of anomalies in the position of the tooth / teeth, were significantly associated with changes in the periodontium, such as: chronic marginal gingivitis, increased gingivitis, gingival recession and chronic periodontitis. Patients were recommended orthodontic treatment as well as basic and surgical periodontal treatment.
