Over the last couple weeks we have been building upon some foundational principles and vocabulary that help us describe clinically normal gingivae. This assignment is asking you to now put it all together and use the terminology that you have learned that relate to color, size, contour, texture, and consistency, along with normal variations that can exists in the periodontium.
