Relationship between restorations and the level of the periodontal attachment
Abstract
Abstract Two hundred and forty stained extracted teeth with a restoration on one proximal surface and with no restoration on the opposite surface were investigated for the position and quality of the restoration and the position of the periodontal attachment. Only 27% of restorations were of good quality, 60% had overhangs and 13% deficiencies. The mean difference in loss of periodontal attachment (LOA) between the two surfaces for all teeth was 0.36 mm when the distance from the cemento‐enamel junction to the periodontal membrane on the un‐restored surfaces was subtracted from that on the restored surfaces. If allowance is made for those restorations located apical to the cemento‐enamel junction, the LOA difference was 0.18 mm.

Excessively bulky or irregular restorations may contribute to periodontal issues by promoting bacterial plaque accumulation rather than causing mechanical irritation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
