Fast Facts: Perio Edition “Periodontal Diagnostics”

On this week’s episode of Fast Facts – Perio Edition your host, Katrina Sanders, RDH talks to us about Periodontal diagnostics systems that have been used, and the current system in place!

Quotes: 

“I think we can all acknowledge that throughout time the AAP has been making a lot of these changes and you guys, some of them have been for the better and some of them have just made things more confusing!”

“What we did need to acknowledge, though, is that in 1999 what we did was we began to advise that perio isn’t just one dimensional, it’s not just slight, moderate or severe.”
