A New Classification Scheme for Periodontal diseases and Conditions: A Review
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Periodontal diseases and conditions remain challenging to classify. The treatment options should follow a diagnosis that accurately represents the patient’s periodontal status and history. The most widely used diagnostic classification stems from recommendations made in the 1999 International Workshop for a Classification of Periodontal Diseases and Conditions. Recently, the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) has suggested interpretations to this periodontal disease classification in an attempt to address its limitations, such as the primary emphasis on clinical attachment levels as the main classification criterion, as well as the difficulty in distinguishing between aggressive and chronic periodontitis and in determining localized versus generalized periodontitis. The suggested AAP modification was presented during the World Workshop in Clinical Periodontics 2017 and new classification system was introduced. This article reviews the history of periodontal disease classification and new classification system introduced for periodontal diseases and conditions and peri-implant diseases in brief.
