title: [Clinical-epidemiological characteristic of periodontal conditions].
abstract: Clinical-epidemiological screening procedures of periodontal conditions, which support on presence or absence of gingival bleeding or periodontal pockets, underestimate the severity of periodontal disease and do not reflect disease changes. The attachment level index might be a useful adjunctive tool for characterizing the pattern of severity as well as disease changes.
