Classifications Flashcards
1999 classifications (used)
Gingival diseases
II Chronic periodontitis
III Aggressive periodontitis
IV Periodontits as a manifestation of systemic diseases
V Necrotising periodontal diseases
VI Abscesses of the periodontium
VII Periodontitis associated with endodontic lesions
VIII Developmental or acquired deformities and conditions
- Problems
Ag P features vs chronic periodontitis - more likely to be genetic
often in young patients..
.. ’Usually affecting persons under 30 years of age, but patients may be older’ - etc - very woolly – room for interpretation
- Diagnosis of gingival health? If this case has one bleeding site is it a gingivitis case?
one bleeding site but overall in tact periodontium
diagnosis of gingival health
loss of inter-proximal attachment between incisors
no pockets
previous periodontitis
- no longer in tact periodontium but not active
aims of 2018 disease classifications (4)
Capture extent, severity
- Amount of periodontal tissue loss
Patient susceptibility
- Estimate by historical rate of progression
Current periodontal state
- Pocket depths/bleeding on probing
A system that can be future proofed for update with new biomarker information
- So don’t have to back date and rejig (e.g. salivary tests)
step 1 of 2018 classifications
What type of periodontal disease does the patient have
commonalities exist between
periodontitis in 2018 classification
Localised (less than or equal to 30% teeth)
Generalised (greater than 30% teeth)
Molar-incisor pattern
The term “aggressive periodontitis” was removed, creating a: staging and grading system for periodontitis that is based upon bone loss and classifies the disease into
4 stages based on severity (I, II, III or IV) BONE LOSS MAINLY
3 grades based on disease susceptibility (A, B or C).
staging perio
4 stages based on severity (I, II, III or IV) BONE LOSS MAINLY
Coronal third, middle third and apical third bone loss
Find worst site of interproximal bone loss and stage on that
Loss teeth due to perio = apical third of root thus stage 4
As long as can see bone level and no indication to take periapical and measure bone loss from CEJ
stage 1
early mild
<15% or 2mm interproximal bone loss
stage 2
moderate
coronal third of root interproximal bone loss
stage 3
severe (potential for additional tooth loss)
mid third of root interproximal bone loss
stage 4
very severe (potential for loss of dentition)
apical third of root interproximal bone loss
grading
captures progression
- A, B , C
Percent bone loss/age
- Worst site of bone loss - assign percentage (Apical third is greater than 60-70%)
- Need pt age
E.g
60 yo and 20% bone loss = slowly progressing
20yo and 60% (3 times age) clearly rapidly progressing -
grade A
slow progression
Percent bone loss/age
<0.5
- max bone loss less than half pt age
grade B
moderate progression
Percent bone loss/age
- 5-1.0
- everything else
grade C
rapid progression
Percent bone loss/age
>1.0
- max bone loss more than patient age
extent perio
Captures distribution
- Localised (<30% of teeth)
- Generalised (more than 30% of teeth)
- Molar incisor pattern
localised perio
<30% of teeth
generalised perio
more than 30% of teeth
BPE tool
screening
- employed to rapidly guide clinicians to arrive at a provisional diagnosis of periodontal health, gingivitis or periodontitis, irrespective of historical aHachment loss and bone loss (i.e., irrespective of staging and grading). As such, the BPE guides the need for further diagnos6c measures prior to establishing a defini6ve periodontal diagnosis and appropriate treatment planning.
How much more need to do and how much more diagnostic tools needed
- if they have interdental recession - they have perio - so want pocket chart
diagnostic pathway
Identify the type and extent of periodontal disease (if periodontitis then with staging and grading)
Identification of current health/disease status (PPD and BoP)
The final diagnosis includes these components in a “diagnostic statement”
action on BPE 3
Option 1 (BSP Guidelines) 0 If a sextant scores 3, this sextant should be reviewed AFTER initial treatment and a 6 point pocket completed for that sextant only (and only aeer treatment)
Option 2 (SDCEP - If a sextant scores 3, a 6 point pocket chart should be completed for that sextant BEFORE treatment and AFTER. ‘full periodontal examination of all teeth and root surface instrumentation where necessary (N.B. Where code 3 is observed in only one sextant, carry out full periodontal examination and root surface instrumentation of affected teeth in that sextant only)
diagnosis based on
Medical
Dental history
Oral examination
Further investigations
