Evaluation of the effect of periodontal health and orthodontic treatment on gingival recession: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimPeriodontal health is a critical factor in the development of gingival recession, which may be influenced by orthodontic treatment and various patient-related factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of gingival recession observed during the retention phase after orthodontic treatment and the contributing etiological factors. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 96 patients (65 females, 31 males; mean age 20.39 ± 2.21 years) were included in the study during routine follow-up examinations in the retention phase, at least six months after the completion of non-extraction fixed orthodontic treatment and their sociodemographic data, oral hygiene habits, and clinical periodontal measurements were evaluated. The relationships between dentoalveolar cephalometric measurements obtained from lateral cephalograms and gingival recession and gingival phenotype were evaluated. The normality of the data was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were applied for continuous and categorical variables, respectively. Logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate risk factors. Statistical significance was considered as p < 0.05.
resultsGingival recession was found to be more prevalent in thin gingival phenotypes compared to thick phenotypes and was observed to be more pronounced when bleeding on probing was 30% and higher (p < 0.05). It was observed that gingival recession increased with age (p < 0.05). No statistically significant difference was found between gingival recession and other periodontal clinical measurements, sociodemographic data, and oral hygiene habits (p > 0.05). No statistically significant relationship was observed between lower incisor protrusion and gingival recession (p > 0.05).
conclusionsIt was concluded that (i) gingival phenotype, bleeding percentage on probing, and age had a considerable effect on gingival recession, whereas orthodontic tooth movement had no significant effect, and (ii) after orthodontic treatment, despite the achievement of a well-aligned teeth and dental arch, the frequency of periodontal check-ups should be increased to reduce the risk of gingival recession. CLINICAL RELAVANCE: Orthodontic treatment, consider periodontal conditions related to gingival recession, like thin phenotype and bleeding on probing.
