  • Probing Depth (in millimeters)baseline

    The distance from the soft tissue (gingiva or alveolar mucosa) margin to the tip of the periodontal probe during usual periodontal diagnostic probing. The health of the attachment apparatus can affect the measurement. (Definition from the American Academy of Periodontology Glossary of Periodontal Terms). The instrument used to measure the probing depth is the periodontal probe. The periodontal is a calibrated probe used to measure the depth and determine the configuration of a periodontal pocket. (Definition from the American Academy of Periodontology Glossary of Periodontal Terms).

  • Clinical Attachment Level (in millimeters)baseline

    The distance from the cemento-enamel junction to the tip of the periodontal probe during usual periodontal diagnostic probing. The health of the attachment apparatus can affect the measurement. (Definition from the American Academy of Periodontology Glossary of Periodontal Terms). The instrument used to measure the clinical attachment level is the periodontal probe. The periodontal is a calibrated probe used to measure the depth and determine the configuration of a periodontal pocket. (Definition from the American Academy of Periodontology Glossary of Periodontal Terms).

  • Bleeding on Probing (yes or no)baseline

    Bleeding is observed or not observed around each of 6 surfaces for each individual tooth following the gentle probing into the gingiva to obtain the probing depth measurements (see definition of periodontal probing). Gingival bleeding indicates the presence of inflammation. Bleeding on probing is a standard of care observation/finding and clinical sign that indicates the presence of inflammation and the progression of periodontal disease.

  • Probing Depth (in millimeters)These will be collected at 3 months post-surgery.
