This study reported on the histometric evaluation and microscopic description of eight specimens obtained from six subjects. Blades from University of Michigan "O" periodontal probes were placed into sulci under standard pressures. With the metal probes in place, specimens were obtained in block sections, processed, stained and evaluated.
