Abstract

This series will consider the limitations of traditional periodontal diagnostic techniques and the recent advances which have sought to overcome them. It will cover improvements in probing and radiographic techniques and also discusses the attempts to find bacterial or tissue-derived markers which will diagnose or predict periodontal disease activity. The first paper describes the traditional methods of periodontal diagnosis.
