Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the changes in the quantity of dental growth, the need for surgery and periodontal parameters in patients who have completed fixed orthodontic treatment from the day of completion of the treatment and 3 months after the control. Instruments and methods: 69 patients (26 men, 43 women, average age: 16.58±3.12 years) who have completed a fixed orthodontic treatment were recorded plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), endemic bleeding (SK) and endemic cell depth (SCD) measurements on the day when the brakes were dissolved. Dental growth was evaluated vertically using the Dental Growth Index (DB) and horizontally using the Miranda and Brunet Index (MB). The same measurements were repeated in the following 3 months of clinical examination and statistically evaluated. Results: In the beginning 3. A significant decrease in DB and MB index scores with clinical periodontal parameters such as PI, GI, SK and SCD was observed in the moon control (p<0.05). There was no statistically meaningful difference between the starting DB and MB index levels, depending on gender, frequency of brushing, use of tooth wire, period of orthodontic treatment, the mother’s educational level and pre-treatment mobility use (p>0.05). According to the educational level of the patient's father and the income level of his family, a statistically significant difference was found between the starting DB and MB index levels (p<0.05). The result: in patients completed with fixed orthodontic therapy, non-chirurgical periodontal therapy was observed a decrease in dental growth and clinical periodontal parameters by providing oral hygiene motivation. Keywords: non-chirurgical periodontal treatment, dental growth, oral hygiene training, fixed orthodontic treatment EVALUATION OF THE LEVEL AND SURGICAL REQUIREMENT OF GINGIVAL OVERGROWTH IN PATIENTS WITH COMPLETED FIXED ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT ABSTRACT AIM: The aim of this study is to evaluate the level of gingival overgrowth, need for surgery and changes in periodontal parameters in patients who completed fixed orthodontic treatment on the day of removing the orthodontic appliances and 3 months later. Material and Methods: Sixty-nine patients (43 female, 26 male, average age: 16.58±3.12 years), all of whose fixed orthodontic treatments were completed, were included in this study. Plaque index, (PI), gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP) and probing depth (PD) measurements were recorded immediately after removing the orthodontic appliances. Gingival overgrowth was assessed using vertical gingival overgrowth (GO) index and horizontal Miranda and Brunet (MB) index. The number of regions with gingival overgrowth was calculated. Measurements were evaluated both as full mouth and molar, premolar, anterior regions separately. Periodontal parameters were measured again after three months and compared with the baseline measurements. Results: Significant decrease was observed in clinical periodontal parameters such as PI, GI, BOP, PD and GO and MB index scores at the 3rd month control compared to baseline (p<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between initial GO and MB index levels according to sex, brushing frequency, flossing, duration of orthodontic treatment, education of the patient's mother and use of removable orthodontic appliance before fixed orthodontic treatment (p>0.05). A significant difference was observed between initial GO and MB index levels according to the education level of the patient's father and economic level of income of the family (p<0.05). Non-surgical periodontal treatment and oral hygiene motivation should be provided in patients upon the completion of the fixed orthodontic treatment. Thus, gingival overgrowth and clinical periodontal parameters were decreased. Keywords: fixed orthodontic treatment, gingival overgrowths, non-surgical periodontal treatment, oral hygiene motivation
