what is slight periodontitis? | less than 30% boneloss |
what is moderate periodontitis? | 30-50% bone loss |
what is severe periodontitis? | more than 50% bone loss |
what is scaling? | removal of calculus and dental biofilm from the supra gingival and sub gingival exposed tooth surface |
what is periodontal debridement? | removal of all residual calculus and toxic materials from the root to produce a clean smooth tooth surface |
what is root planing? | instrumentation of periodontally involved teeth to remove cementum that is rough or contaminated with endotoxins |
what are the contraindications for periodontal debridement? | lack of motivation for home care teeth with severe perio and mobility pockets depths requiring surgery extreme hypersensitivity anug |
