Is Radiologic Assessment of Alveolar Crest Height Useful to Monitor Periodontal Disease Activity?

Abstract: Summary While the mainstay of periodontal assessment is clinical probing, radiographic assessment is also commonly employed and has the potential to provide facile quantitative information on the status of tooth-supporting bone. This article provides a brief review of standard methods to assess periodontal structures, including basic tenants of radiograph acquisition, assessment of alveolar crest levels, and typical patterns of bone loss seen in periodontal patients. Studies of the use of computer technology t… Show more

“…Thus, we only recorded bleeding from any one site at the lingual surface and any one site at the buccal surface of each tooth to increase measurement accuracy. An ideal approach to disease classification would involve the use of current clinical parameters complemented by a radiographic assessment to detect the presence of bone tissue destruction as well as other biologic phenotypes that represent the periodontal pathogenesis at the microbial, cellular, or molecular level . Importantly, we collected detailed information to measure the HOMA‐IR exposure and we conducted a full‐mouth probing pocket depth examination.…”
