Dr. Noufa. M [2] | Dr. P. Bhuvaneswari [2] | Dr. Vanitha Mullan
Abstract: Occlusion and its relationship to periodontal disease have been and remains an area of considerable controversy. Traumatic occlusion, a pathological state of occlusion, has been theorized that the situation could lead to migration of epithelial cuff, localized bone loss, and ultimately the result is pocket deepening. Many researches and studies have aimed to disprove this theory since periodontitis is believed of bacterial etiology.
