[Comparability of epidemiologic sample surveys with CPITN].

About 2500 patients each have been examined by an examiner of a definite medical care area or by 27 dentists in all districts of the Dresden county. The results of the age group between 20 and 25 years and 35 and 44 years indicate for both populations a similar course of increasing age-depending degree of severity and an increasing frequency of periodontitis. Differences are significant by grouping into the Code groups 0 and 1. These differences can be explained by a well-aimed prevention in the definite area and an individually lower exploratory capacity of the single examiner.

[Dependence of bleeding provocation on the probing force for diagnostics and progress evaluation of inflammatory periodontal diseases].

The suitability of bleeding provocation in the gingival sulcus in dependence on the probing pressure is examined as an early sign of gingivitis. In preliminary tests it has been found that the individual exertion in probing is varying strongly between the examiners but the intraindivudual force application varies only slightly. During the force application of 0.3 N or 0.6 N corresponding to a inflammatory signs of colour and form change of the gingiva. The symptoms had been classified into SBI, PBI and GI indices. With a probing force of 0.3 N considerably less gingival units are diagnosed diseased than by determination of colour and form change. Only with increased force application of 0.6 N corresponding to a pressure of 227 N/cm2 the bleeding symptom represents an early diagnostic sign. To determine the therapeutical success by an examiner the correlations of bleeding reductions are maintained.
