[Essential and iatrogenic gingival hyperplasia. Its morphology and significance].

11 specimens were carried out in patients with idiopathic gingival hyperplasia (3 cases), gravidic hyperplasia (1 case), iatrogenic hyperplasia (5 cases after cyclosporin A administrated in patients with cardiac grafts, 2 cases after treatment by Adalat). By optic microscopy, the deep collagen base is thickened, associated sometimes to an inflammatory process. By histoenzymology, the fibroblasts have high activities of their oxidative enzymes and also of the enzymes of protein synthesis. The electron microscopy corroborates the numerous globular fibroblasts with well-developed rough endoplasmic reticulum. These results prove the main role of fibroblasts in these lesions and the etiopathogenesis of this hyperplasia is discussed.

[Effect of the soft laser on gingival connective tissue. II--Effect on wound healing. Optical microscopy, histoenzymology and electron microscopy studies].

The effect of soft-laser upon cicatrization of the gum was studied in 14 patients. After the initial biopsy, control biopsies were performed on the same patients in non-irradiated gums. In the absence of inflammation, cicatrization took place in a similar manner in the irradiated and control tissues. After an early vascular growth, connective cylinders occurred, accompanied by an increase of enzymatic activity) (oxidative enzymes, leucine aminopeptidase, alkaline phosphatase). Then, the scar was formed of longitudinal bundles. The laser induced an earlier cicatrization (14th day) than in the controls (21st day). The presence of inflammation in the gum delayed cicatrization and often promoted cheloid scars with abnormal anastomosing connective bundles. In this case also, irradiation by soft-laser was followed by a quicker and better cicatrization.

Prevention of failures in making impressions and dies.

I have attempted to provide information that will help to prevent failures that occur during partial denture construction as a result of unsatisfactory fabrication of crowns. Methods of exposure of the preparation margins, provision of adequate bulk of the elastic impression material, proper selection of die construction, and the removable die technique were discussed.
