    Notes: Abstract The healing response of non-molar sites, molar flat surface sites, and molar furcation sites was investigated in 19 adult periodontitis patients following a periodontal therapy of plaque control and root debridement. A total of 2472 sites were monitored by recordings of dental plaque, bleeding on probing, probing depth, and probing attachment levels every 3rd month for 24 months. The results demonstrated that in sites with initial probing depth of 4.0 mm or greater, molar furcation sites responded less favorably to the therapy as compared to molar flat surface sites or non-molar sites. This was demonstrated by higher mean scores for bleeding on probing, less reduction in probing depth, and a mean loss of probing attachment of 0.5 mm over 24 months. Site analyses using linear regression showed a higher % of deeper sites with probing attachment loss for the molar furcations than either molar flat surface or non-molar sites. Among sites initially 7.0 mm or deeper, 21% of molar furcations were identified as showing probing attachment loss as compared to 7% of the molar flat surface sites and 11 % of the non-molar sites.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this investigation was to histologically determine the position of the periodontal probe tip when probing the deepest in terra dicular pocket depth in grade II and III facial molar furcation sites. Facial furcation pockets (5.8 mm+ 1.3) were probed with a pressure-sensitive probe set at 50 g pressure. The probe tip was attached to the tooth with an acid etched composite resin. Surgical block biopsies were removed, fixed, decalcified and processed for histological sectioning. Buccolingual serial sections (6 μ) were cut from 9 biopsies and apicocoronal serial sections were cut from 3 biopsies. The sections were histometrically analyzed. The probe tip penetrated the inflamed furcation connective tissue an average depth of 2.1 mm (±0.6), The probe tip was located 0.4 mm (± 1.4) apical to the crest of the interradicular bone. The % of inflammatory cell infiltrate in the connective tissue (ICT) around the probe tip was 56% (± 15%). There was no correlation between the % of ICT and the depth of probe penetration. This investigation demonstrated that probing of untreated facial molar furcation sites does not measure the attachment level of the interradicular root surfaces, but rather records the depth of probe penetration into the inflamed furcation connective tissue.

    Notes: Abstract This investigation was designed to determine the reproducibility of probing pocket depths in maxillary facial and mandibular facial and lingual grade II and III molar furcation sites. 80 untreated molar teeth with 102 furcation invasions due to periodontitis were probed with a pressure-sensitive periodontal probe by 3 examiners. 8 sites per furcation were measured by each examiner at a single examination. The sequence of examiner probing was rotated in order to evaluate the effect of sequential probing. Tracings were made from radiographs of the inter-root separations in order to classify the interradicular space and to determine the effect of root separation on reproducibility. Data was analyzed by regression analysis, Pearson correlations, intraclass correlations, and the Student-Newman-Keuls test. Analysis indicated a high reproducibility of the maxillary facial and mandibular facial and lingual furcation sites in this untreated adult sample. No effect was due to probing sequence. The mid-root prominences, the line angles, and the internal surface sites of the furcation roots were recordable and reproducible, while the horizontal measurements were not consistently recordable The reproducibility of the facial and lingual furcation sites that were probed decreased with an increase in probing pocket depth and an increased degree of root separation.

    Notes: Abstract 19 adult periodontitis patients were treated with plaque control and a single episode of root debridement. Results of this treatment were monitored in non-molar sites, molar flat surface sites, and molar furcation sites by probing attachment level measurements every 3rd month for 24 months. After 24 months, sites with probing attachment loss were identified using linear regression analysis. Clinical scores for supragingival plaque, bleeding on probing, suppuration on probing, and probing depth, obtained from these sites during the 24-month study, were analyzed to determine if they could be used diagnostically as indicators of probing attachment loss. The results demonstrated that the diagnostic accuracy for these clinical indicators was generally low at all 3 anatomical site locations. A possible explanation for this limited diagnostic accuracy may be that some areas of probing attachment loss following basic periodontal therapy are caused by factors other than the progression of an inflammatory periodontal disease of microbial etiology.
