“…Clinical signs such as gingival bleeding, supragingival calculus, probing depth and loss of insertion are indicators of periodontal disease that isolated or in association with other parameters, provide data to diagnose the presence or absence of periodontal inflammation [9]. Most epidemiological studies [3] follow the parameters recommended by the World Health Organization, and use periodontal disease indicators systematized in indices such as the periodontal community index (CPI) -gingival bleeding, calculus presence and bag depth. It has as advantage simplicity, reproducibility and international uniformity [10].…”

Foi possível observar ainda que, apesar da associação entre ser brasileiro e conhecer fio dental, essa relação não implica o uso.…”

“…Bacteria are essential to the development of periodontal disease, but factors related to the host, such as characteristics of the individual as well as systemic, social, behavioral and psychosocial factors, exert an influence on the extent and severity of the disease [2,6,7].
