About This Product

In response to increasing concerns on the part of health care providers, third-party payers, and consumers about the quality, cost, and access to dental care, the American Academy of Periodontology has developed practice parameters on the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases. These parameters are strategies to assist dentists in making clinical decisions from a range of reasonable treatment options to achieve desired outcome. The Parameters of Care was a supplement to Volume 71, Number 5, May 2000 Journal of Periodontology. You may access the Parameters of Care online at no charge.

Included in this supplement are parameters on:

  • Comprehensive Periodontal Examination

  • Chronic Periodontitis With Slight to Moderate Loss of Periodontal Support
  • Chronic Periodontitis With Advanced Loss of Periodontal Support
