Abstract

The article discusses the use of a certain computer assisted program, in the treatment of periodontal diseases. The fact that periodontal therapy is controlled rather than a preventive treatment, makes it important that a database be maintained so that changes may be studied as they occur, which brings in the necessity for a computer aided program. The given program charts values from periodontal examinations, emphasizing on scientific section that focuses on things like caries, restorations and plaques. It further enhances diagnosis by providing an error-free transformation of numerical values into charts along with an advantage in patient follow-up.
