Periodontal Disease Classification System: an overviewWalker, JennyMayo, KathrynDental Health
Even though it is ideal that classification of periodontal diseases be based solely on etiologic agents, it is not always practical, since many factors influence the manifestations of periodontal disease. Until recently, the 1989 American Academy of Periodontology classification system was used. However...
1 This was to replace the Armitage 1999 classification of periodontal diseases, which had been used for nearly two decades.2 This new redesigned periodontal disease classification framework included a multi-dimensional staging and grading system, the inaugural classification for peri-implant diseases and ...
The confusion and scepticism towards the new classification system is more about the proposal for grading periodontitis based on guessing on a "high, moderate, or low risk of progression" (Caton et al., 2018). Firstly, it is unfortunate that the proofreader did not correct this snippet in ...
Periodontal disease reaches far back into the history of humankind, and can be verified by periodontal lesions in skeletal material of the earliest humans (Loe et al. 1992). Hillson states that diseases are a "part of the ecology of an individual. It represents the impact of the environment ...
The classification system for ‘disease state’ and periodontal clinical parameters contrasts between most of the studies as does the OHRQoL assessment tool. With respect to the OHRQoL, eight different survey formats are applied, an abbreviated format of the Oral Health Impact Profile was the most ...

Significant findings from theperiodontal examinationmay suggest a diagnosis relating toperiodontal disease, most commonly, plaque-associatedgingivitis. Approximately 15% of patients will also have attachment loss or a diagnosis ofperiodontitis. A periodontaldisease classificationsystem developed by the American ...
Recently, aMMP-8 was proposed as a diagnostic biomarker for the updated periodontitis classification system [27] and presented a lower risk of false positives compared to traditionally used clinical measure bleeding on probing [36]. Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-...
Periodontal diseases comprise a wide range of inflammatory conditions that affect the supporting structures of the teeth (the gingiva, bone and periodontal ligament), which could lead to tooth loss and contribute to systemic inflammation. Chronic periodo
