Abstract:
In a highly evolved and developed world, where professionals seek greater knowledge and understanding of advanced surgeries and high technologies, basic concepts have become distant, posing challenges in achieving an accurate periodontal diagnosis. Therefore, utilizing a step-by-step clinical and radiographic periodontal assessment protocol can facilitate precise diagnosis. This editorial introduces the Periodontal Assessment Protocol (GF-PAPro), developed based on the most substantial scientific literature, to guide clinicians and experts in standardized clinical periodontal assessments.
