Abstract EN
The gingival state of thirty seven young patients (mean age 11.6 years) wearing simple removable orthodontic appliances was assessed and followed at monthly intervals for 3 months.
For 17 of the patients, intentional relief of the appliance was carried out in the upper right area.
Statistically, the plaque index levels were similar in both “relief” and “non-relief” groups and reached a similar score at 2 and 3 months.
The gingival index was significantly higher in the “relief” group.
