Oral Hygiene and Maintenance of Periodontal Support
Open accessAbstract
T he role of personal plaque control in periodontal maintenance care was studied in 78 patients who had undergone periodontal therapy and were on 3‐month recall for prophylaxis over 8 years. Variations in pocket depth and attachment levels were related to individuals with plaque scores above and below the median. The results also were analyzed by comparing the 25% of the sample having the lowest plaque scores with the 25% having the highest scores over 7 years of maintenance care. Students t test was used. It was found that personal oral hygiene as expressed in plaque scores was not critical for maintenance of post‐treatment pocket depth and attachment levels in patients with professional tooth cleaning every 3 months. The initial post‐treatment reductions in pocket depth and variations in attachment levels were more favorable in patients with good than with poor oral hygiene, but, these differences were not significant after 3 to 4 years of maintenance care.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
