    Being the most prevalent form of periodontitis, chronic periodontitis is defined as “an inflammatory disease of the supporting tissue of the teeth caused by specific microorganisms, resulting in progressive destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth.”1 It is most prevalent in elderly patients with the presence of causative factors such as calculus, plaques, associated systemic conditions, smoking and overhanging restorations.2 Clinically, chronic periodontitis is often associated with a decrease in bone level, decrease in periodontal attachment level and loss of stippling effect of the healthy gingival, periodontal pockets formation and gingival inflammation. As chronic periodontitis may be asymptomatic with the gingival appearing healthy despite the presence of ongoing underlying infection, patients may be totally unaware of the existence of the condition and continue assuming that their gingival health is good.3 This makes it particularly difficult for the patient to accept treatment, further contributing to the progression of the disease.

    In both text, ‘American Beauty’ and ‘The Catcher in the Rye’, the illusion of the American Dream is explored. These two texts rely heavily on symbolism to convey messages of desire. In ‘The Catcher in the Rye’, the red hunting hat is symbolic for Holden’s desire to be an individual. The presence of the hat mirrors the central conflict in the book: Holden’s need for isolation versus his need for companionship. The colour red is symbolic, in ‘American Beauty’, for desire as well. Angela, Lester’s desire is always surrounded by red roses or petals when he sees or dreams about her. It is later discovered that Lester does not desire Angela’s physicality, but the attention she supplies him with. Each character has an idealistic view on how they wish their lives were and this is supported by the symbols mentioned above.…

    Gingival Recession Essay

    • 464 Words

    Gingival recession is a common feature in populations with high standards of oral hygiene, as well as in populations with poor oral hygiene.1-3 Incidence of gingival recession varies from 8% in children to 100% after age 50 years.4 Several aspects of gingival recession such as esthetic/cosmetic demands and root sensitivity make it clinically significant and required surgical correction. Another common indication for root coverage procedures is to reshape the architecture of the marginal soft tissue in order to facilitate plaque control.5 Pedicle grafts,6 free gingival grafts 7, guided tissue regeneration,8 and subepithelial connective tissue grafts (SCTG)9 are the most commonly used surgical procedures in the treatment of gingival recessions. At the present time the SCTG technique is considered as “gold standard” of periodontal plastic surgery.9 Although this procedure is highly predictable and resulted in successful long-term root coverage, but it is limited in supply and significantly increases patient morbidity.10 With the availability of an alternative source of donor tissue, less surgery would be necessary and the potential morbidity associated with root…
