[Comparative clinical and photogrammetric studies on the marginal periodontium after the use of dentifrices].
A suggestion was made for testing the therapeutic effect of certain substances on gingival inflammation. Gingivitis was induced in 60 subjects by discontinuing of all forms of oral hygiene. Three tooth pastes, one of which was a placebo, were used for the study. Regression of the inflammation was determined with the periodontal indexes and photogrammetry. Photogrammetry appears to be well suited for objective evaluation of the therapeutic value of certain substances.
