Diagnosis Flashcards

1
Q

Examination of teeth and dental implants to
evaluate the topography of the gingiva and related
structures; to measure probing depths, the width of
keratinized tissue, gingival recession, and attachment
level; to evaluate the health of the subgingival area
with measures such as bleeding on probing and
suppuration; to assess clinical furcation status; and
to detect endodontic–periodontal lesions.
• Assessment of the presence, degree, and/or distribution
of plaque/biofilm, calculus, and gingival inflammation.
