endstream DMFT and DMFS describe the amount - the prevalence - of dental caries in an individual. The gingival index is used in dental care to evaluate the extent of gum disease. Helv Odontol Acta. J Periodontol. Totalling all the scores per tooth and dividing by the number of teeth examined provides the MGI score per person.Score 0: Healthy looking papillary and marginal gingiva, no bleeding on probing;Score 1: Healthy looking gingiva, bleeding on probing;Score 2: Bleeding on probing, change in color, no edema;Score 3: Bleeding on probing, change in color, slight edema;Score 4: Bleeding on probing, change in color, obvious edema;Score 5: Spontaneous bleeding, change in color, marked edema.The scoring is done by calculating scores of mesial papillae, starting from the second molar to the lateral incisor.

endobj The scoring criteria is used is given in, The scores of each tooth are added and the total is divided by the number of teeth examined.

DMFT and DMFS are means to numerically express the caries prevalence and are obtained by calculating the number ofThe sum of the three figures forms the DMFT-value. endstream After score for a group of individual is obtained by computing the average of the individual scores. There are pitted or worn areas and brown stains are widespread; the teeth often have a corroded appearance.The Oral Hygiene Index is composed of the combined Debris Index and Calculus index, each of these index is in turn based on 12 numerical determinations representing the amount of debris or calculus found on the buccal and lingual surfaces of each of three segments of each dental arch, namelyEach segment is examined for debris or calculus. stream Specific surfaces with disclosed plaque are observed and scored as follows,The plaque component of PDI is estimated by totalling all individual tooth scores and dividing it by the number of teeth examined.The calculus present on the tooth surfaces is examined by a subgingival explorer or a periodontal probe. The gingival status is assessed byFor the selected teeth, 4 surfaces (facial, lingual, mesial and distal) are scored from 0-3. <>
