Abstract
The effect on marginal inflammation and tooth mobility of occlusal adjustment by grinding was investigated in 43 occlusally traumatized teeth in 29 subjects with gingivitis and marginal periodontitis. The material consisted of 4 groups with tooth mobility of varying degrees of severity and bone destruction. In all groups increased tooth mobility decreased subsequent to occlusal adjustment. The latter was without effect on sulcus fluid flow rate or gingivitis scores in either gingivitis or periodontitis patients.Keywords
