Periodontitis was associated with mesial concavity of the maxillary first premolar: a cross-sectional study

The association between the anatomical features of teeth and the pathogenesis of periodontitis is well-documented. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of the mesial concavity of the maxillary first premolar on periodontal clinical indices and alveolar bone resorption rates. Employing a cross-...

Description
Summary:The association between the anatomical features of teeth and the pathogenesis of periodontitis is well-documented. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of the mesial concavity of the maxillary first premolar on periodontal clinical indices and alveolar bone resorption rates. Employing a cross-sectional design, in 226 patients with periodontitis, we used cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) to examine the mesial concavity and alveolar bone resorption of 343 maxillary first premolar. Periodontal clinical indicators recorded by periodontal probing in the mesial of the maxillary first premolar in patients with periodontitis. Our findings indicate that the presence of mesial concavity at the cemento-enamel junction of the maxillary first premolar was not significantly influenced by either tooth position or patient sex ( p  > 0.05). Nonetheless, the mesial concavity at the cemento-enamel junction of the maxillary first premolar was found to exacerbate alveolar bone resorption and the inflammatory condition ( p
