“UNLESS YOU CAN COUNT IT, WEIGH IT OR EXPRESS IT IN A
QUANTITATIVE FASHION, YOU HAVE SCARCELY BEGUN TO
THINK ABOUT THE DISEASE IN A SCIENTIFIC FASHION”
-LORD KELVIN 4
5. DEFINITIONS
• “Epidemiological indices are attempts to quantitate clinical
condition on graduated scale, thereby facilitating
comparison among populations examined by the same
criteria and methods”. – Irving Glickman
5
According to Russell A.L , an index is defined as ‘A numerical
value describing the relative status of the population on a
graduated scale with definite upper and lower limits which is
designed to permit and facilitate comparison with other
population classified with the same criteria and the method”
6. “An index is an expression of clinical observation in numeric
values. It is used to describe the status of the individual or
group with respect to a condition being measured. The use
of numeric scale and a standardized method for interpreting
observations of a condition results in an index score that is
more consistent and less subjective than a word description
of that condition”. – Esther M Wilkins

8. OBJECTIVES
FOR INDIVIDUAL PATIENT
• Recognize an oral problem
• Effectiveness of present
oral hygiene practices
• Motivation in preventive
and professional care for
control and elimination of
diseases 8
IN RESEARCH
• Determine base line data
before experimental factors
are introduced
• Measure the effectiveness of
specific agents for prevention
control or treatment of oral
condition
IN COMMUNITY
• Shows prevalence and
incidence of a condition
• Assess the need of the
community
• Compare the effects of a
community program and
evaluate the results
9. Based on the direction in which their scores can
fluctuate:
• Measures condition that
can be changed e.g.
periodontal index
Reversible
index:
• Measures conditions that
will not change e.g. dental
caries
Irreversible
index:
9
CLASSIFICATION OF INDEX
10. •Depending upon the extent to which areas of oral
cavity are measured :
Full mouth
indices:
• Patient’s entire
periodontium or
dentition is
measured.
• e.g. OHI
Simplified indices:
• Measure only a
representative
sample of the
dental apparatus.
• e.g. OHI-S
10
11. According to the entity which they measure
• “d” decay portion of the dmf index is the
best example of disease index
Disease
index :
• Measuring gingival or sulcular bleeding are
essentially examples of symptom indices
Symptom
index :
• “f” filled portion of dmft index is the best
example for treatment index
Treatment
index :
11
12. General indices :
• Index that measures the
presence or absence of a
condition. e.g. plaque index
Simple
index:
• Index that measures all the
evidence of a condition, past
and present. e.g. DMF index
Cumulative
index:
13. INDICES USED FOR ORAL HYGIENE ASSESSMENT
• Oral hygiene index
• Simplified oral hygiene index
• Patient hygiene performance
• Turesky, Gilmore, Glickman modification of the Quigley Hein
plaque index
• O’leary index
14. ORAL HYGIENE INDEX (OHI)
• Developed in 1960 by John C. Green and Jack R. Vermillion
in order to classify and assess oral hygiene status.
• Simple and sensitive method for assessing group or
individual oral hygiene quantitatively.
• Composed of 2 components:
• Debris index (DI)
• Calculus index (CI)
15. RULES OF ORAL HYGIENE INDEX
1 Only fully erupted permanent teeth
are scored.
2 Third molars and incompletely
erupted teeth are not scored
because of the wide variations in
heights of clinical crowns.
3 The buccal and lingual debris
scores are both taken on the tooth
in a segment having the greatest
surface area covered by debris.
4 The buccal and lingual calculus
scores are both taken on the tooth
in a segment having the greatest
surface area covered by
supragingival and subgingival
calculus.
16. 0 – No debris or stain
present
1 – Soft debris covering
not more than 1/3rd the
tooth surface, or
presence
of extrinsic stains
without
other debris regardless
of the area covered2 – Soft debris covering
more than 1/3rd, but not
more than 2/3rd,of the
exposed tooth surface
3 – Soft debris covering
more
than 2/3rd of the
exposed
DEBRIS INDEX CRITERIA

SCORE CRITERIA
0 No calculus present
1 Supragingival calculus covering not
more than 1/3 of the exposed tooth
surface
2 Supragingival calculus covering more
than 1/3 but not more than 2/3 the
exposed tooth surface or presence of
individual flecks of subgingival calculus
around the cervical portion of the tooth
or both.
3 Supragingival calculus covering more
than 2/3 the exposed tooth surface or a
continuous heavy band of subgingival
calculus around the cervical portion of
tooth or both.Supragingival

CALCULUS INDEX CRITERIA
18. CALCULATION
• Debris Index (DI) =( Buccal Score+ Lingual Score) / NO. OF SEG
• Calculus Index (CI) =( Buccal Score+ Lingual Score) / NO. OF SEG
• Oral Hygiene Index= DI+CI
• DI and CI range from 0-6
• Maximum score for all segments can be 36 for debris or calculus
• OHI range from 0-12
• Higher the OHI, poorer is the oral hygiene of patient
19. SIMPLIFIED ORAL HYGIENE INDEX
• Developed by John C Greene and Jack R Vermillion in 1964
as OHI was time consuming and required more decision
making
• Only fully erupted permanent teeth are scored
• Natural teeth with full crown restorations and surfaces
reduced in height by caries or trauma are not scored
• An alternate tooth is then examined if missing

INTERPRETATION
29. USES
• Reliable technique for evaluating both mechanical anti plaque
procedures and chemical agents
• Used in longitudinal studies and clinical trials
30. 30
ADVANTAGE
•Good validity and reproducibility
•Can be used as full mouth or simplified
DRAWBACK
•Subjectivity in estimating plaque
31. Turesky, Gilmore, Glickman modification of the
Quigley-Hein plaque index
• Quigley and Hein in 1962 reported a plaque measurement
that focused on the gingival third of the tooth surface.
• Only facial surfaces of the anterior teeth were examined
after using basic fuchsin mouthwash as a disclosing agent.
• Quigley - Hein plaque index was modified by Turesky,
Gilmore and Glickman in 1970.
31
32. • Plaque is assessed on the labial, buccal and lingual surfaces
of all the teeth after using a disclosing agent.
• The scores of the gingival 1/3rd area was also redefined.
• Provides a comprehensive method for evaluating anti
plaque procedures such as tooth brushing, flossing as well
as chemical anti plaque agents.
• The index is based on a numerical score of 0 to 5

4 Plaque covering at least 1/3rd but
less than 2/3rd of the crown of the
tooth
5 Plaque covering 2/3rd or more of
the crown of the tooth
34. O’LEARY INDEX
(plaque control record)
• O' leary T, Drake R, Naylor in1972
• Method of recording the presence of the plaque on
individual tooth surfaces
• Suitable disclosing solution such as Bismarck brown,
Diaplac or similar is painted on all exposed tooth
surfaces..
• The operator (using an explorer or a tip of a probe)
examines each stained surface for soft accumulations at
the dentogingival junction. When found, they are
recorded by making a dash/red colour in the appropriate
spaces on the record form
35. Calculation
PLAQUE INDEX =The number of plaque containing surfaces
The total number of available surfaces
• Since plaque is stained,
identification and record
making is easy
• Also aids in patient education
Drawback
Records only the presence or absence of plaque
36. GINGIVAL AND PERIODONTAL DISEASE
INDICES
• GINGIVAL INDEX
• PERIODONTAL INDEX
• CPITN
• COMMUNITY PERIODONTAL INDEX
36
37. GINGIVAL INDEX
• Developed by Loe and Silness in 1963.
• One of the most widely accepted and used gingival indices.
• Assess the severity of gingivitis and its location in 4 possible areas.
• Mesial
• Lingual
• Distal
• Facial
• 0nly qualitative changes are assessed.
37
38. :
• All surfaces of all teeth or selected teeth or selected surface of
all teeth or selected teeth are scored.
• The teeth and gingiva are first dried with a blast of air and/or
cotton rolls.
• The tissues are divided into 4 gingival scoring units: Disto facial
papilla, Facial margin, Mesio facial papilla and Entire lingual
margin.
• A blunt periodontal probe is used to assess the bleeding
potential of the tissues.

40. CALCULATION AND INTERPRETATION
• If the scores around each tooth are totaled
and divided by the number of surfaces per
tooth examined (4), the gingival index score
for the tooth is obtained.
• Totaling all of the scores per tooth and
dividing by the number of teeth examined
provides the gingival index score for
individual.
INTERPRETATION:
0.1 - 1.0 : mild gingivitis
1.1 – 2.0 : moderate
gingivitis
2.1 – 3.0 : severe gingivitisRECORDING FORMAT
41. MODIFIED GINGIVAL INDEX
• Developed by Lobene, Weatherford, Ross, Lamm and Menaker in 1986.
• Assess the prevalence and severity of gingivitis.
• Strictly based on non invasive approach i.e. visual examination only
without any probing.
• To obtain MGI , labial and lingual surfaces of the gingival margins and
the interdental papilla of all erupted teeth except 3rd molars are
examined and scored.

SCORE CRITERIA
43. RUSELL’S PERIODONTAL INDEX
• Developed by Rusell AI in 1956.
• It was once widely used in epidemiological surveys but not used much
now because of introduction of new periodontal indices and
refinement of criteria.
• The RPI is reported to be useful among large populations, but it is of
limited use for individuals or small groups.
43
44. • All the teeth are examined in this index.
• Rusell chose the scoring values as 0,1,2,4,6,8 in order to relate the
stage of the disease in an epidemiological survey to the clinical
conditions observed.
• The Russell’s rule states that “ when in doubt assign the lower
score.”
44
METHOD
45. FIELD STUDIES CLINICAL STUDIES /
RADIOGRAPHIC FINDINGS
0 Negative. Neither overt inflammation in the
investing tissues nor loss of function due to
destruction of supporting bone.
Radiographic appearance is essentially
normal.
1 Mild gingivitis. An overt area of inflammation in
the free gingiva does not circumscribe the tooth
2 Gingivitis. Inflammation completely circumscribe
the tooth, but there is no apparent break in the
epithelial attachment
4 Used only when radiographs are available. There is early notch like resorption of
alveolar crest.
6 Gingivitis with pocket formation. The epithelial
attachment is broken and there is a pocket. There is
no interference with normal masticatory function;
the tooth is firm in its socket and has not drifted.
There is horizontal bone loss involving the
entire alveolar crest, up to half of the
length of the tooth root.
8 Advanced destruction with loss of masticatory
function. The tooth may be loose, may have
drifted, may sound dull on percussion with metallic
instrument, or may be depressible in its socket.
There is advanced bone loss involving
more than half of the tooth root, or a
definite intrabony pocket with widening
of periodontal ligament. There may be
root resorption or rarefaction at the apex.

47. COMMUNITY PERIODONTAL INDEX OF
TREATMENT NEEDS
• The community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN) was
introduced by JUKKA AINAMO for joint working committee of the WHO
and FDI in 1982.
• Developed primarily to survey and evaluate periodontal treatment needs
rather than determining past and present periodontal status i.e. recession of
the gingival margin and alveolar bone.
• Treatment needs implies that the CPITN assesses only those conditions
potentially responsive to treatment, but not non treatable or irreversible
conditions.
47
48. The mouth is divided into sextants :
17- 14 13- 23 24- 27
47 – 44 43- 33 34 – 37
• The 3rd molars are not included, except where they are functioning in
place of 2nd molars.
• The treatment need in a sextant is recorded only if there are 2 or more
teeth present in a sextant and not indicated for extraction.
• If only one tooth remains in a sextant, then the tooth is included in the
adjoining sextant.
48
Procedure :
49. Probing depth is recorded either on all the teeth in a
sextant or only on certain indexed teeth as recommended
by who for epidemiological surveys.
For adults aged > 20 yrs:
• 10 index teeth are taken into account :17 16 11 26 37 47
46 31 36 37.
• The molars are examined in pairs and only one score the
highest score is recorded.
49
50. For young people up to 19 yrs:
• Only 6 index teeth are examined : 16 11 26 46 31 36
• The second molars are excluded at these ages because of
the high frequency of false pockets (non inflammatory
tooth eruption associated).

Designed for 2 purposes :
• measurement of pockets.
• detection of sub-gingival calculus.

RECENT ADVANCES IN PERIODONTAL
INDICES
• BASIC PERIODONTAL EXAMINATION (BPE) INDEX
• GENETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY INDEX FOR PERIODONTAL DIS
• PERIODONTAL SCREENING AND RECORDING (PSR) INDE
• BLEEDING POINT INDEX
70. • Developed by British Society of Periodontology in 1986
• Derived from the community periodontal index of
treatment needs (cpitn)
• Simple and rapid screening tool that is used to indicate the
level of examination needed and to provide basic
guidance on treatment need
• Not a diagnostic tool
70
BASIC PERIODONTAL EXAMINATION (BPE)
INDEX
72. • Genetic markers denote susceptibility toward disease
manifestation and it would be useful to exploit the
information hidden into them and to derive a Genetic
Susceptibility Index (GSI)
• Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP’s) in genes
encoding molecules of the host defense system are
assessed and an association is established between
SNP and disease status
72
GENETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY INDEX FOR
PERIODONTAL DISEASE
73. • Introduced in 1992 by American Academy of Periodontology
(AAP) and American Dental Association(ADA)
• Endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO)
• Adaptation of the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment
needs (CPITN)
• Used to measure gingival bleeding upon probing, calculus on a
tooth, and periodontal pocket depth in each sextant of the oral
cavity 73
PERIODONTAL SCREENING AND RECORDING
(PSR) INDEX
74. CALCULATING PSR
• Highest score in a sextant is recorded as the PSR
score for the sextant.
• Only one score is recorded for each sextant of
the oral cavity.
• A WHO/CPITN/PSR probe is used to examine
each tooth individually
74
75. ADVANTAGES
• Introducing a simplified screening method that met
legal dental recording requirements.
• Early detection of periodontal disease and it serves as
an aid in monitoring the periodontal status of patients
75
LIMITATIONS
• Limited use of the PSR system in children due to inability
to differentiate pseudo-pockets
• Does not measure epithelial attachment, the severity of
periodontal disease may be underestimated with its use
76. • Used to measure pocket depths.
• A pocket measuring probe/ Williams probe is
used.
• Main components to record:
- Pocket depth (mm)
- Mobility
- Recession (mm)
- Bleeding on probing
- Furcation
DPC – DETAILED PERIODONTAL
CHART
77. • Two blunt instruments are used to asses a tooth’s
mobility.
e.g end of mirror and probe
• To quantify mobility, Millers index of mobility is used:
MOBILITY
GRAD
E
MOBILITY
Grade 0 Normal physiological mobility (<1mm)
Grade 1 Movement up to 1mm in horizontal plane
Grade 2 Movement greater than 1mm in horizontal plane
Grade 3 Severe mobility greater than 2mm or vertical
mobility
78. • The furcation is the point at which the two roots divide.
• A pocket measuring probe is used (Naber’s probe)
Ramfjord and Ash furcation index:

GRADE MOBILITY
Grade
0
No clinical furcation involved
Grade

Bone loss up to 1/3 width
Grade
2
Bone loss up to 2/3 width
Grade

79. RECESSION
•To measure the recession of
a individual tooth, a pocket
measuring probe must be
used.
•The probe is placed onto the
tooth and the distance
between the cemento-enamel
junction and the gingival
margin is measured. This is
the amount of recession that
has occurred on that tooth.
80. • THE POCKET MEASURING PROBE IS INSERTED INTO THE
GINGIVAL CREVICE.
• THE DISTANCE FROM THE BASE OF THE POCKET AND
THE GINGIVAL MARGIN IS MEASURED.
• IN ADDITION, IF THE SITE BLEEDS ON PROBING, CIRCLE
THE SCORE IN RED AND IF THE SITE HAS SUPPURATION
(PUS) CIRCLE THE SCORE IN BLUE OR BLACK.
BASELINE POCKET DEPTH
BASELINE POCKET DEPTH + RECESSION = CAL
81. • The DPC allows the operator to find sites in the mouth
requiring attention.
• Sites with pockets greater than 5mm will require
immediate attention .
• Subsequent pocket depths and CAL can be measured after
treatment to assess the success of treatment.
MERITS AND RESULTS OF THE DPC
82. BLEEDING POINT INDEX
•Provides an evaluation of gingival inflammation
around each tooth in patient’s mouth
•Bleeding on probing recorded on distal ,facial
,mesial and gingival surface
•Calculation=(no of bleeding surface/total no of
tooth surface)*100
•Demonstrates gingival inflammation

Dental diseases are the most prevalent and
most neglected of all the chronic diseases of
mankind.
One of the major problems in studying dental
diseases and its factors is the development of a
suitable and practicable method for recording
and classifying the occurrence and severity of
the disease.
Dental indices and scoring methods are used in
clinical practice and community programs to
determine and record the state of health of
individual and group

“Oral indices are essentially set of values, usually numerical with maximum and minimum limits, used to describe the variables or a specific conditions on a graduated scale, which use the same criteria and method to compare a specific variable in individuals, samples or populations with that same variables as is found in other individuals, samples or populations.” – George P Barnes
CLEAR ABOUT RULESOF INDEX Simplicity:Should be easy to apply so that there is no undue time lost during field examinations.
Objectivity:Criteria for the index should be clear and unambiguous.(CERTAIN), with mutually exclusive categories.
Validity: Must measure what it is intended to measure.DIFFERENT STAGES OF DISEASE
Reliability: Should measure consistently at different times and under a variety of conditions
SENSITIVITY: Ability to distinguish between small increments
Acceptability Safe and not demeaning-DESTROYING to the subject
Quantifiability Index should be amenable to statistical analysis and interpretable
Specificity: Ability to not detect the condition when it is absent.
