Area of Science:

  • Periodontology
  • Dental Diagnostics

Background:

  • The 2017 periodontal classification system introduced staging, grading, and extent for periodontitis diagnosis.
  • Accurate periodontitis diagnosis is essential for effective treatment planning.
  • Both periodontists and general dentists diagnose periodontitis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the diagnostic accuracy of periodontists, postgraduate periodontal students, general dentists, and undergraduate students.
  • To evaluate the accuracy in determining the stage, grade, and extent of periodontitis based on the 2017 classification.

Main Methods:

  • Four groups (periodontists, postgraduate students, general dentists, undergraduates; n=10 each) assessed five documented periodontitis cases.
  • Examiners determined the stage, grade, and extent of periodontitis.
  • One-way ANOVA and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used for statistical analysis.

Main Results:

  • Substantial agreement was found for stage (ICC=0.658) and overall score (ICC=0.690).
  • Moderate agreement for grade (ICC=0.518) and fair agreement for extent (ICC=0.273) were observed.
  • Periodontists and postgraduates showed significant agreement (ICC=0.756 for stage, ICC=0.698 for overall score) and performed better in overall scoring.

Conclusions:

  • Periodontists exhibited higher diagnostic accuracy than postgraduate students, undergraduates, and general dentists.
  • Undergraduate students performed better than general dentists in diagnosing periodontitis.
  • Accurate diagnosis of periodontitis stage, grade, and extent is critical for appropriate treatment.
