• 2. Apical

• 2. Coronal

• 2. Distal

• Mesial

2. In gingivitis, which of the following structures remains intact?

• 1. Supragingival fiber bundles

• Periodontal ligament

• 2. Alveolar bone

• PDL & Alveolar bone

5. For those with gingivitis, why is there an increased probing depth of a gingival pocket?

• 1. Enlarged tissue

  2. Apical migration of the junctional epithelium
