Webinar - 2017 World Workshop Classification on Periodontal Diseases Systemic Diseases and Other Conditions which affect Periodontal Attachment

Aims

To discuss the  2017 classification of periodontal diseases with respect to  systemic factors and other conditions which affect periodontal attachment.

Objectives

  • To discuss the systemic conditions which may severely exacerbate periodontitis.
  • To describe the range of other systemic conditions which may cause periodontal breakdown independent of periodontitis
  • To discuss the clinical relevance and implications for dental practice of these conditions.
  • To describe the classification of gingival recession defects and perio-endo lesions.
  • To highlight some miscellaneous outcomes of the  workshop including the role of occlusal forces and the concept of biologic width.
