ABSTRACT
Background: orthodontic appliances can make the removal of the bacterial plaque difficult and increases the inflammatory effect that is produced on the gingival tissues.
Objective: to assess the gingival health condition of adolescents with or without orthodontic appliances, comparing their periodontal parameters.
Methods: in the present observational, cross-sectional study, the universe was composed of 64 individuals (32 with orthodontic appliances and 32 without orthodontic appliances). The probing depth was measured with a calibrated probe in six sites per tooth (mesobuccal, buccal, distobuccal, distolingual, lingual, mesolingual) in all the teeth; the third molar was excluded. In every site of the teeth, the clinical attachment level, the presence of plaque and the bleeding at probing, were assessed.
Results: significant differences in the plaque levels and in the bleeding at probing were observed between both groups, being higher in the adolescents with orthodontic appliances. The association between the plaque levels and the bleeding at probing for both groups was statistically significant (p ‹ 0.01).
Conclusions: periodontal conditions of the adolescents with orthodontic appliances should be regularly monitored since these appliances have a higher tendency to the accumulation of bacterial plaque that provokes bleeding and gingival inflammation.
