Abstract

The relationship between shin colour and gingival tissue is important to give aesthetic look to the prosthesis. Colour variation of gingiva may be uniform, unilateral, bilateral, mottled, macular or blotched and varies from pale pink, coral pink, light brown and dark brown, the exact line being a matter of individual variation. This study evaluated the relationship of gingival pigments with skin colour.
