evaluation of gingival Suppuration and supragingival plaque following 4 modalities of periodontal therapy
Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1990Co-Authors: Wayne B Kaldahl, Kenneth L Kalkwarf, Kashinath D Patil, Michael P MolvarAbstract:: This study evaluated the effect of coronal scaling (CS), root planing (RP), modified Widman surgery (MW) and flap with osseous resectional surgery (FO) upon the presence of gingival Suppuration and supragingival plaque. 75 patients completed split-mouth therapy and 2 years of maintenance care. Data were collected prior to the initiation of therapy, following initial therapy, following surgical therapy and yearly during 2 years of maintenance care. All 4 types of therapy reduced the prevalence of Suppuration with RP, MW and FO producing a greater reduction than CS in sites greater than or equal to 5 mm. Sites were grouped according to presence of Suppuration at 2 consecutive examinations. The mean changes in probing depth and probing attachment level for each time period were compared. Sites that began to suppurate between 2 exams or were suppurating at both exams had a less favorable response in mean probing depth reduction and mean probing attachment gain when compared to sites that stopped suppurating between exams or did not suppurate at either exam. The prevalence of supragingival plaque decreased during active therapy and 2 years of maintenance. There was no difference in the prevalence between the therapy groups except for FO-treated sites showing more plaque accumulation after surgical therapy. The presence or absence of supragingival plaque at specific sites was dynamic, frequently converting to a new status between 2 examinations.

relationship of gingival bleeding gingival Suppuration and supragingival plaque to attachment loss
Journal of Periodontology, 1990Co-Authors: Wayne B Kaldahl, Kenneth L Kalkwarf, Kashinath D Patil, Michael P MolvarAbstract:This study evaluated the relationship between the presence of gingival bleeding, gingival Suppuration, and supragingival plaque at 3 month appointments to the incidence of probing attachment loss during a 2-year period of maintenance therapy. The data included in this report were taken during the second and third year of maintenance from 75 periodontal patients who had previously received active therapy in an ongoing longitudinal study. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were calculated for different frequencies of positive responses for each clinical parameter in relation to sites demonstrating ≥ 2 mm probing attachment loss. Gingival bleeding and plaque were not prognosticators and gingival Suppuration was a weak prognosticator of attachment loss during a 2 year maintenance period. J Periodontol 1990;61:347–351.

diagnostic predictability of scores of plaque bleeding Suppuration and probing depth for probing attachment loss 31 2 years of observation following initial periodontal therapy
Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1990Co-Authors: Noel Claffey, Karin Nylund, Robert Kiger, Steve Garrett, Jan EgelbergAbstract:Abstract Recordings of supragingival plaque, bleeding, Suppuration and probing depth were obtained for 42 months following initial periodontal therapy. Scores accumulated after various time intervals during monitoring were studied for their predictive value in revealing probing attachment loss as determined by regression analysis during the 0–42 month period. Accumulated plaque scores demonstrated low predictability. Accumulated bleeding scores showed modest predictive values. Suppuration on probing was not a frequent finding during the observation interval and also had modest predictive power. Increase in probing depth compared to baseline and deep residual probing depth had modest predictability after 3 and 12 months, but showed increasing accuracy in revealing probing attachment loss over later time intervals. After a few years of maintenance, increase in probing depth, particularly if combined with high frequency of bleeding on probing, showed the highest predictive value for probing attachment loss of the scores examined.
