[Early diagnosis of periodontal disease].
Early diagnosis is necessary if the prevalence of periodontal disease is to be brought under control. For periodontal screening in dental practice we propose to employ the C.P.I.T.N. system, combined with examination of two or four dental bite-wing radiographs. Both of these procedures can be accurately applied in general dental practice conditions. The screening is not time consuming and can yield very important diagnostic data.
