Gingival invagination, a "pseudopocket" during orthodontic space closure, requires further research. Limited studies highlight the need for understanding its causes, consequences, and management strategies for better orthodontic outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Orthodontics
  • Periodontology

Background:

  • Gingival invagination, presenting as a pseudopocket, is a recognized complication during orthodontic space closure.
  • This gingival alteration can be assessed through both horizontal and vertical probing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review the existing literature on the etiology of gingival invagination.
  • To summarize information regarding the intermediate and long-term sequelae associated with this condition.
  • To explore potential prevention and treatment modalities for gingival invagination.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive search of the PubMed database using MeSH terms was conducted.
  • Manual searches of selected dental journals and their reference lists supplemented the database search.

  • The review focused on identifying and analyzing available literature on gingival invagination.

    • Main Results:

    • A scarcity of published articles specifically addressing gingival invagination was identified.
    • The available literature exhibited varying levels of evidence, precluding quantitative analysis.
    • The findings were synthesized and discussed based on the limited available data.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a significant lack of high-quality research on gingival invagination.
    • Further investigation is needed to fully understand the etiology, sequelae, and effective management of gingival invagination.
    • The current evidence base necessitates cautious interpretation and highlights areas for future research in orthodontic and periodontal health.
