Clinical Findings
Clinical examination reveals minimal plaque and calculus in the gingival
third of the molars. Andy's self care evaluation indicates that he
is doing reasonably well with his toothbrushing. His gingival tissues
are healthy except for some marginal inflammation in the molar areas. LJP is characterized by periodontal destruction that is not commensurate with the local factors present.
Refer to the oral examination and dental & periodontal charting forms for complete
assessment information.
