Study Notes
Classification Importance
- Enhances communication among dental care providers regarding clinical findings.
- Assists in formulating accurate diagnoses and individualized treatment plans.
- Helps in predicting treatment outcomes and prognosis effectively.
- Facilitates submission of information to dental insurance providers.
Key Organizations
- AAP: American Academy of Periodontology.
- EFP: European Federation of Periodontology.
Main Divisions (2017 Classification)
- Periodontal health, gingival diseases, and conditions.
- Periodontitis.
- Other conditions affecting the periodontium.
- Peri-implant diseases and conditions.
Subdivisions of Periodontal Health, Gingival Diseases, and Conditions
- Periodontal and Gingival Health: Clinical gingival health on intact or reduced periodontium.
- Gingivitis: Induced by dental biofilm, with subcategories for contributing risk factors and drug influences, no attachment loss.
- Nondental Biofilm Induced Gingival Diseases: Include genetic, infectious, inflammatory, reactive, neoplastic, endocrine, traumatic, and pigmentation issues.
Subcategories of Periodontitis
- Necrotizing Periodontal Diseases: Includes necrotizing gingivitis, periodontitis, and stomatitis.
- Periodontitis Classification: Based on severity, complexity, grades of progression, extent, and distribution (localized vs. generalized).
- Systemic Disease Manifestations: Classified using ICD codes.
Definitions of Localized vs. Generalized
- Localized: Afflicts less than 30% of teeth.
- Generalized: Affects 30% or more of teeth.
Stages of Periodontitis
- Stage I: Initial periodontitis.
- Stage II: Moderate periodontitis.
- Stage III: Severe periodontitis with risk of tooth loss.
- Stage IV: Severe periodontitis with dentition loss potential.
Grades of Periodontitis
- Grade A: Slow progression rate.
- Grade B: Moderate progression rate.
- Grade C: Rapid progression rate.
Other Conditions Affecting the Periodontium
- Systemic diseases impacting periodontal supporting tissues.
- Periodontal abscesses and endodontic-periodontal lesions.
- Mucogingival deformities and conditions.
- Traumatic occlusal forces (primary, secondary, orthodontic).
- Tooth and prosthesis-related factors.
Peri-implant Diseases and Conditions
- Peri-implant Health: Healthy status of peri-implant tissues.
- Peri-implant Mucositis: Inflammation of peri-implant mucosa without bone loss.
- Peri-implantitis: Inflammatory condition with loss of supporting bone.
- Soft and Hard Tissue Deficiencies: Deficiencies around implants.
Historical Context
- Much of the periodontal literature is based on the 1999 classification, which distinguished chronic and aggressive periodontitis.
- The 1999 classification did not include peri-implantitis.
Fundamental Classification Basis
- Classifications are grounded in etiology, clinical manifestations, and development processes.
- Main diagnostic categories define conditions as either gingivitis or periodontitis.
