What is the BPE SCORE? 0 1 ( is that right ) 2 3 4 5 As we only record the highest score, in this case one tooth bleeds on probing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Horizontal BitewingsThese radiographs are likely to be taken routinely for assessing caries.They may also give early warning of localised bone loss and the presence ofsubgingival calculus. The normal positioning of the film should automatically ensurea non-distorted view of bone levels in relation to the CEJ’s.Vertical BitewingsCorrectly positioned, this type of radiograph should also give a non-distorted view ofbone levels in relation to CEJs, in opposing arches. However they can only bepositioned accurately in patients with quite tall palatal vaults. Selected paralleledperiapicals may be more appropriate in cases with more difficult access and wherethe teeth are restored, in order to assess apical status.Paralleled periapicalsThe “gold standard†radiograph for periodontal cases. Correctly positioned thisradiograph will give an accurate, non-distorted two dimensional picture of bone levelsin relation to both CEJs and total root length. This technique involves the use of aparalleling device, of which there are several on the market. These devices take theguess work out of radiography and you will achieve better and more consistent results.Visualising root anatomy in its entirety can be very useful in assessing bone level inrelation to total root length in:• Assessing prognosis• Helping to assess furcation involvements• Identifying possible endodontic complicationshttp://www.bsperio.org.uk/publications/downloads/Young_Practitioners_Guide.pdf From: bhavani prasanna <bhavani_prasanna@...> " " < > Sent: Friday, 6 April 2012, 9:22 Subject: Re: BPE hi pearlcould u plz send us the bpe document thanksbhavani From: pearltooth32 <pearltooth32@...> Sent: Thursday, 5 April 2012 7:53 PM Subject: BPE Hi Can any one confirm is it true or not that now for pocket more than 6 mm we do not use vertical bitewing.
