Using Artificial Intelligence-platform on Plaque Control and Periodontal Treatment Outcome in Patients With Periodontal Disease-Preliminary Results

The gingiva inflammation status of 6 tooth was recorded using the gingiva index, as follows: 0 = No inflammation. = Mild inflammation, slight change in color, slight edema, no bleeding on probing = Moderate inflammation, moderate glazing, redness, bleeding on probing = Severe inflammation, marked redness and hypertrophy, ulceration, tendency to spontaneous bleeding. For each patient, GI will measured by the teeth 12,16,24,32,36,44
