Aim: To evaluate any possible correlation between gingivitis and alveolar bone loss in multiparity
Material and Method: 50 non-pregnant and 50 pregnant subjects each were subjected to clinical examination for plaque and gingivitis of all the teeth using Loe and Silness index. Roentgenographic examination of maxillary and mandibular central incisors and right and left maxillary and mandibular 1st molars was done at random.
Results: Irrespective of pregnancy or non pregnant state gingivitis and plaque exhibit a strong correlation with time. The level of gingivitis has no effect on the alveolar - bone loss during or after pregnancy.
Conclusion: Gingival changes associated with pregnancy is due to the effects of hormonal changes and even more, so due to multiparity.
