- Abstract
A total of 186 patients aged 40 to 65 with short interalveolar distance were treated. 65.5% of them developed pathological changes in the marginal periodontal tissues (inflammation, periodontal and osseous pouches, resorption of bone tissue of the maxillary alveolar process). Patients with involvement of the marginal periodontal tissue were treated by therapeutic, surgical, and orthodontic methods. Good results were attained in 95.1% of patients.
