NEW AAP Perio Guides You Can FINALLY Understand!

4/4/2022

0 Comments

 
The American Academy of Periodontology Classifications are created to help dental hygienists diagnose and treat periodontitis.  These guidelines should be followed so we are all consistent in our client charting.

WE NEED
--Up to date radiographs, and charting

STAGING
--Determine CAL (pockets and recession combined) and bone loss from radiographs

GRADING
--Does the client smoke?  Do they have diabetes (uncontrolled)?, What is their percentage of bone loss?

Example of a statement:  Stage I, < 15% localized horizontal bone loss (teeth 17,36), Grade B (smokes 3 cigarettes a day, sometimes 5).
