    Preventive dental training significantly reduced the distance from the cementoenamel junction to the alveolar septum (DJS) in young adults. This key indicator of periodontal health improved by an average of 0.35 mm across all age groups studied.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Periodontology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Periodontal disease affects a significant portion of the adult population.
    • Maintaining healthy alveolar bone levels is crucial for long-term tooth retention.
    • Early detection and prevention strategies are vital for managing periodontal health.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the long-term impact of preventive dental training on periodontal health.
    • To assess changes in the distance from the cementoenamel junction to the alveolar septum (DJS) following interventions.
    • To determine the statistical significance of observed changes in DJS.

    Main Methods:

    • A longitudinal study involving 300 patients aged 16-39 years.
    • Measurement of DJS on bitewing radiographs at 8 surfaces of the lateral segment.

  • Comparison of DJS measurements from two distinct periods (1963-1967 and 1973-1976) before and after implementing preventive training.

    • Main Results:

    • The average DJS decreased from a range of 0.93-1.49 mm to 0.65-1.01 mm.
    • A statistically significant average decrease of 0.35 mm in DJS was observed across all age groups.
    • The implemented preventive training program demonstrated a positive effect on periodontal bone levels.

    Conclusions:

    • Routine preventive dental training is effective in improving periodontal health indicators.
    • The reduction in DJS suggests a positive impact on alveolar bone maintenance.
    • Long-term preventive strategies can lead to measurable improvements in periodontal status.
