Key definitions
According to the updated classifications,
a patient has periodontitis if:
* Interdental clinical attachment
loss (CAL) is detectable in two
or more nonadjacent teeth.
* Buccal or lingual CAL ≥ 3 mm with
pocketing > 3 mm is detectable
in two or more teeth.
* The observed CAL cannot be
ascribed to trauma-induced gingival
recession, dental caries extending
to the cervical area, endodontic
lesions draining through the
periodontium, or tooth fractures.

For each stage, describe extent as localized (less than 30% of teeth involved),
generalized, or molar/incisor pattern.

The new classification of periodontitis
is based on a two-vector system defined by
stage and grade, inspired by a scheme used
in oncology.
Stage classifies the severity and extent of
current tissue loss, including tooth loss due
to periodontitis. As seen in Table 1, this
classification incorporates an assessment of
the level of complexity of management of
the patient's condition.
According to the revised ground rules
for assessing the stage of periodontal disease:
* The stage is defi ned on the basis
of the most severe fi nding and on
the patient level, not the individual
tooth level.

*

*

*

The stage is assigned before treatment
and cannot revert after therapy, but
may advance over time if the
periodontal conditions deteriorate
significantly.
Disease severity, case complexity and
periodontitis-associated tooth loss
are "alternative paths" that guide the
selection of the appropriate stage.
Selection of the appropriate stage
requires more than "checking off"
individual boxes; it is a deliberate
process that necessitates a holistic
evaluation of multiple findings.
