Best measurement of periodontitis by:
a- Pocket depth.
b- Bleeding. ***
c- Attachment level.
Clinical measurement of periodontitis has historically focused on the concept of periodontitis as a slow, continuous process which has emphasized measurements of the static condition of periodontal pockets.
Observations based on longitudinal measurement of attachment loss in untreated subjects have indicated that periodontal destruction occurs in discrete episodes of short duration.
Probing to elicit bleeding (which is the single most useful indicator of disease activity), measuring pocket depth attachment levels, and detecting subgingival calculus.
