GINGIVAL SULCUS AND SULCULAR EPITHELIUM

Gingival Sulcus or the Crevice is a natural space between the tooth structure and the surrounding Margival gingiva and the Sulcus is lined by the Sulcular Epithelium. This Sulcus acts as a dynamic space which in health serves as a barrier to the entry of pathogenic organisms, but in disease state converts into a pathological Pocket.
