Show answer
1 to 3 mm- What are the CAL and radiographic bone loss criteria for Stage I periodontitis?
Show answer
Interdental CAL of 1 to 2 mm, with radiographic bone loss in the coronal third of the root (under 15 percent)- What are the CAL and radiographic bone loss criteria for Stage II periodontitis?
Show answer
Interdental CAL of 3 to 4 mm, with radiographic bone loss of 15 to 33 percent- What defines Stage III periodontitis?
Show answer
Interdental CAL of 5 mm or more, bone loss extending to the middle third of the root or beyond, with up to 4 teeth lost to periodontitis- What defines Stage IV periodontitis?

Show answer
A through-and-through opening where a probe can pass completely from one side of the furcation to the other- What defines Miller Class I tooth mobility?
Show answer
Horizontal movement of less than 1 mm- What defines Miller Class II tooth mobility?
