The Periodontal Classification System Comprehensive Course

This classification system serves as the source document for reviewing in-depth all periodontal issues and conditions we could see in each patient. This evidence-based summary of all periodontal diagnoses provides the framework in determining the treatment necessary to improve the prognoses of teeth and implants.

For periodontal disease, proper staging and grading can be used to address all local and systemic risk factors that affect the outcomes of any recommended treatment. This information is also a powerful communication tool to educate a patient on their condition and to then recommend appropriate treatment to improve their oral health.

The goal of this course is to review and to provide valuable insights into the proper planning and treatment of your patients.
