2015年1月14日 · Periodontal screening provides a quick and easy method of detecting periodontal disease so that appropriate treatment and patient education can be started at the earliest opportunity.

Introducing a simplified screening method that met legal dental recording requirements. Encouraging dentists to incorporate the PSR system into every oral examination. Educating members of the public to value periodontal health and to request a periodontal screening from dentists (PSR Training Program, 1992).

When the clinician becomes familiar with the PSR system examination process, it should only take a few minutes to conduct a screening. Similar to a traditional comprehensive periodontal examination, the PSR system measures each tooth individually, with implants examined the same way as natural teeth.

The authors evaluated the results of PSR against those of a conventional periodontal examination in 24 subjects, each of whom had a minimum of 18 natural teeth. The results of this study suggest that the PSR examination, while a useful screening tool, could be improved to further enhance its identification of patients with peridontal diseases.
