How does a dentist diagnose pyorrhea?




A dentist may evaluate:
  • Gum inflammation and bleeding
  • Periodontal pocket depths
  • Gum recession
  • Tooth mobility
  • Plaque and calculus
  • Changes in tooth position
  • Medical and dental history


Dental X-rays may be used when clinically appropriate to evaluate supporting bone levels.


A diagnosis should therefore be based on a clinical periodontal examination, rather than symptoms alone.
