gingival |
gingival |
 |
| pertaining to or in relation to the gingiva. |
| |
| |
abcès gingival; abcès pyorrhéique; parulie |
abscess, gingival; parulis |
|
| an elevated nodule at the site of a fistula draining a chronic periapical abscess. These nodules occur most frequently in relation to pulpally involved deciduous teeth. |
| |
| |
atrophie gingivale |
atrophy, gingival |
|
|
| |
| |
attachement gingival |
attachment, gingival |
|
| the fibrous attachment of the gingival tissues to the teeth. |
| |
| |
bord gingival, rebord gingival |
margin, gingival; margo gingivalis; margin, gum |
|
| 1. the cavosurface angle of the wall of a cavity preparation closest to the apex of the root. 2. the crest or tip of the gingival tissues. |
| |
| |
bourrelet gingival |
gingival pad |
|
|
| |
| |
col gingival |
col, gingival |
|
|
| |
| |
contour gingival |
contour, gingival |
|
| the shape of the natural or artificial gingiva as it approximates the natural or artificial tooth. |
| |
| |
cręte gingivale |
gingival crater |
|
| a concave depression in the gingival tissue. Especially seen in the area of the former apex of the interdental papilla as a result of gingival destruction associated with necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis or when food impaction occurs against the tissue subjacent to the contact points of adjacent teeth. |

curetage gingival |
curettage, gingival |
|
|
| |
| |
curetage sous-gingival |
curettage, subgingival |
|
| the process of debridement of the epithelial attachment, the ulcerated and entire (pocket) epithelium, and subjacent inflamed and altered gingival corium. The controversial procedure is thought to result in the resolution of the inflammatory process and desirable shrinkage and repair of the edematous tissue, but less invasive procedures have proven more effective. Some states still require hygienists to be tested on this procedure, while other states and programs have dropped testing and teaching the procedure altogether. |
| |
| |
détartrage sons-gingival |
scaling, subgingival |
|
| the removal of accretions and debris from the surfaces of the tooth apical to the gingival margin. This process accomplishes the removal of primary irritants to the gingival tissues and permits the reduction of inflammation in these tissues. |
| |
| |
détartrage sus-gingival |
scaling, supragingival |
|
| the technique of meticulous cleansing of the surfaces of the teeth coronal to the gingival margin. |
| |
| |
écarteur, instrument pour détacher le lambeau gingival |
retractor, tissue- |
|
|
| |
| |
éléphantiasis gingival |
fibromatosis, gingival; gingival elephantiasis |
|
|
| |
| |
épithélium gingival |
epithelium, gingival; oral gingival epithelium |
|
| stratified squamous epithelium consisting of a basal layer; it is keratinized or parakeratinized when comprising the attached gingiva |
| |
| |
fissure gingivale |
gingival cleft; gingival fissure; gingival Stillman's clefts |
|
| small fissures extending apically from the midline of the gingival margin in teeth subjected to trauma. Although these clefts may be found in traumatism, they are not necessarily diagnostic of occlusal trauma; a cleft of the marginal gingiva; may be caused by many factors, such as incorrect toothbrushing, a breakthrough to the surface of pocket formation, or faulty tooth positions, and may resemble a V-shaped notch. |

fistule gingivale |
fistula, gingival |

gingivite ulcéreuse, stomatite ulcéro-membraneuse (forme gingivale) |
