Oral (gingival) epithelium
orthokeratinized or parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium

resistant to abrasion and penetration of pathogens
Gingival connective tissue
determines the phenotype of the overlying epithelium
Sulcular epithelium
non-keratinized or parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium

amount of keratinization depends on amount of plaque control

NO rete pegs
Junctional epithelium
non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium

NO rete pegs

Forms biologic seal
free gingival groove
where the dentogingival & dentoperiosteal gingival fibers change direction
mucogingival junction
border b/t the keratinized gingiva & non-keratinized alveolar mucosa
Formation of the Junctional Epithelium (JE)
REE attaches to the enamel surface via hemidesmosomes after crown completion

REE fuses to oral epithelium during eruption to form Eruption Cuff

Oral Epithelium forms sulcular epithelium

REE + Oral Epithelim forms junctional epithelium
Eruption Cuff
Formed during Eruption by fusion of REE and oral epithelium
Cytokeratin expressed in Gingival epithelium
K1
Cytokeratin expressed in Junctional epithelium
K19
Bullous Pemhigoid
autoimmune dz

antibodies against BPAG-1 proteins that make up internal plates of hemidesmosomes in the BM

Characterized by EP getting easily rubbed off due to lack of attachment to underlying CT

Seen as blisters
periodontal probing
measures the depth of the gingival sulcus
BUT
Too many uncontrollable factors like
Diameter of proble
Inconstant pressure exerted
State of inflammation of tissues
Transudate
Gingival crevicular fluid of healthy gingiva

It's an ultrafiltrate of blood
Exudate
Gingival crevicular fluid of inflammed gingiva
Primary Junctional Epithelial Attachment
Original REE attaches to enamel when crown formation completed
Secondary Junctional Epithelial Attachment
Proliferated junctional epithelium attaches to enamel surface replacing REE
What structures does Junctional Epithelium use to seal off underlying structures from bacterial egress?
Two basement membranes
External Basal Lamina lies against gingival CT
Internal Basal Lamina lies against enamel surface via Hemidesmosomes
Where can inductive factor in CT be found to induce keratinization
It is present extracellulary

This is because devitalized CT matrix can still induce keratinization
Alloderm
Artificial CT matrix that doesn't require live cells

Induces keratinization without doing free gingival grafts
