Summary
This document provides guidance for clinicians on periodontal health and gingivitis, focusing on a new classification system for periodontal and peri-implant diseases, published in 2019. It details the differences between the 1999 and 2017 classification systems, highlighting improvements in defining periodontal health and gingivitis categories. It also discusses biomarkers in oral fluids and methods to assess gingival bleeding, including full-mouth versus partial-mouth assessments.

Autor Iain Chapple + info en www.sepa.es Orientación para clínicos 3 Nueva Clasificación de enfermedades periodontales y periimplantarias Introducción Las enfermedades periodontales humanas abarcan un amplio espectro de condiciones. Algunas de ellas están relacionadas con el biofilm de placa bacteriana mientras que otras aparecen independientemente del acúmulo de biofilm y pueden ser modificadas por el biofilm o no ser influidas por él. El sistema de clasificación de 1999 fue el primero en reconocer una necesidad de clasificar las enfermedades gingivales. Pero tenía muchos defectos. Dentro de su clasificación de las condiciones gingivales se encuentran algunas rarezas, como la “gingivitis asociada a diabetes mellitus” y la “gingivitis por déficit de ácido ascórbico”, que inducen a error (la “gingivitis por déficit de ácido ascórbico”, por ejemplo, no existe – en realidad, se refiere al escorbuto o ulceraciones gingivales causadas por déficit de ascorbato). En este sistema no se intentó definir “salud”, lo que claramente es un factor crítico al intentar establecer definiciones de caso de una enfermedad. Y la descripción Una decisión de la gingivitis era innecesariamente compleja, ya que integraba tanto factores fundamental predisponentes como modificadores en el diagnóstico. está relacionada En el contexto de estas limitaciones de la clasificación de 1999, el Grupo de con el concepto Trabajo 1 del World Workshop de 2017 decidió crear una definición clara de salud periodontal, tanto a nivel histológico como clínico. Asimismo, adoptó una de salud metodología reduccionista para permitir definir gingivitis según únicamente dos “prístina” categorías principales: (1) gingivitis inducida por biofilm de placa bacteriana dental y (2) enfermedades gingivales no inducidas por biofilm de placa bacteriana. versus “clínica” Definiendo la salud periodontal Un factor crítico a la hora de definir la salud fue reconocer que puede existir salud periodontal a nivel localizado y a nivel de boca completa, así como en un periodonto intacto o reducido. Un periodonto intacto es aquel que no presenta pérdida de inserción clínica (PIC/CAL) o pérdida ósea, mientras que un periodonto reducido puede aparecer en dos situaciones independientes: bien en un paciente sin periodontitis (por ejemplo, pacientes con alguna forma de recesión gingival o después de una cirugía de alargamiento coronario) o en un paciente con antecedentes de periodontitis. Por ello, se establecieron definiciones de caso de salud y gingivitis para las tres situaciones, en los términos descritos a continuación. Otra decisión fundamental está relacionada con el concepto de salud “prístina” versus “clínica”. Dado que en Medicina la normalidad es definida como el encaje del 95% de la población con esa definición, y que el 95% de los adultos tienen uno o más puntos de sangrado en sus bocas, el término “salud” tiene que aceptar algunas zonas localizadas con inflamación ligera. La literatura ha evidenciado que se producen cambios histológicos en la microvasculatura gingival casi inmediatamente después de la erupción dentaria y que existe un infiltrado inflamatorio evidente como parte de un sistema de defensa inmunológico normal. Lo mismo es aplicable a signos clínicos inflamatorios sutiles en zonas aisladas como parte de la “salud clínica”. La salud prístina, por tanto, puede ser considerada como algo excepcional y limitado en gran medida a los libros de texto ( 25 g,105,121,122 with the average maximum probing force re‐ on the full‐mouth evaluation of all sites available for examination. ported to be in the 50‐ to 70‐g range,122 such differences in force magnitude have been shown to result in consistent but moderate Biomarkers in oral fluids changes in BOP prevalence.
