Staying up to date with periodontal disease classification, released in 2017, can be overwhelming — especially in fast-paced practice settings.
Join CareQuest Institute for a webinar that will explore a simple, practical approach for using the periodontal diagnostic process in practice. Our expert panel will discuss the periodontal examination essentials and the most common diagnosis categories — periodontal health, gingivitis, and periodontitis. Using real-world examples and visual aids, the experts will offer guidance on diagnosis. They’ll also address common questions about documentation, insurance coding, and treatment planning.
Learning Objectives:
- Explain the essential components of the periodontal examination and their role in the diagnostic process.
- Differentiate among common periodontal diagnoses — including health, gingivitis, and periodontitis — while applying staging and grading, assessment specifically to the diagnosis of periodontitis.
- Apply the classification system to common clinical scenarios in general practice to enhance diagnosis accuracy, documentation, and treatment planning.
