In this episode of Op Talk, Irene and Vic discuss Scaling and Root Planning (SRPs) and how to effectively monitor periodontal disease progression in patients.
This complex condition can be challenging to manage, but having a clear clinical protocol helps simplify treatment planning and patient education.
We explore key questions, such as:
- When is periodontitis considered stable or in remission?
- What clinical and behavioural factors should be evaluated before adjusting a patient’s treatment plan?
- How frequently should you reassess and potentially change a patient’s scaling interval from 3 months to 6 months or longer?
- How crucial is it to obtain a patient’s full periodontal probing history?
