Q

What is the main debate surrounding gingivitis?

A

There been discussion on whether it is a disease as almost 90% of people have gingivitis
So is it a normal response or a disease?

Q

Why has a new updated version of the classification been published?

A

Because we have a lot of new knowledge now that needs to be added
The new classification tries to also acknowledge what we do not know

34
Q

How do we stage a tooth?

A

We look at the worst tooth and assess extent of bone loss

We see if bone loss is in the coronal, mid or apical third of the root

35
Q

How do we grade a tooth?

We look at the percentage of bone loss per age rain

Necrosis “punched out” interdental papillae
ulceration
bleeding, pain
possible secondary factors, pseudomembrane

necrosis gingival tissues

periodontal ligament and bone break down that doesn’t heal well
