Community Periodontal Index Treatment Needs Clinical Probe ; 5 g ; 3.5 mm to

5.5 mm, 8.5 mm to 11.5 mm.
Cervical Abrasion ; Faulty brushing, abrasive substances.

A Spot Map/Dot Density Map; Can only illustrate clusters of disease cases, and does
not take into account the size of the population at risk.
B Area Map; Can illustrate differences in disease risk in different areas.
Dental Erosion; Intrinsic causes - gastric origin from gastric reflux and include
vomiting, vomiting in case of anorexia, bulimia nervosa, rumination. Extrinsic causes dietary soft drinks, citrus fruit and food pickled with vinegar, and certain Medications.
2 Population Variance ; s2 Sample Variance ; = Population Mean;
Mean.
Dental Attrition ; tooth to tooth contact, , parafunction habits, bruxism, clenching,
developmental defects, coarse diet, natural teeth opposing porcelain, class III incisal
relationship, lack of posterior support.
Oral Screen; Mouth Breathing ; Snores, Sleeps with mouth open, Drools on pillow,
Blocked nose daily, Itchy nose.

14

Thumb Guard ; Thumb Sucking ; Increased overjet - Labial tipping of upper anterior
and/or lingual tipping of lower anterior, Open bite, Posterior cross bite, Callus on
fingers/thumb and clean nails.
Powered, automatic, mechanical or electric Toothbrush. Advantages: Only minimal
skill level is needed to brush properly; Less brushing force is required; Less likely to
cause damage to tooth enamel and gums because the majority of them have pressure
sensors.

Fluoride Varnish; A viscous yellowish material containing 22,600 ppm Sodium

Fluoride in a neutral base.

17

Fluoride Varnish; A clear polyurethane based product containing 7000 ppm Fluoride
from an organic compound, difluorosilane.

Likert Scale; Advantages: 1) The responses are easily quantifiable and subject to
computation or some mathematical analysis. 2) The responses presented accommodate
neutral or undecided feelings of participants. Disadvantage: It gives only 5-7 options
of choice, and the space between each choice cannot possibly be equidistant.
Therefore, it fails to measure the true attitudes of respondents.

19

Population Standard Deviation; s Sample Standard Deviation

20

Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride; It is prepared by dissolving 20 gms of sodium fluoride

in 1 liter of 0.1 M phosphoric acid. To this is added 50 percent hydrofluoric acid to
maintain a pH of 3.0 and fluoride ion concentration at 1.23 percent. Gel: for
preparation of gel [APF], a gelling agent methylcellulose or hydroxyethyl cellulose is
added to the solution and the pH is adjusted 4-5.

Interproximal Brushes; Indications: 1) Diastemas. 2) Exposed root furcations. 3)

Orthodontic and fixed appliances.

Relative Frequency; Frequency of an Individual Category divided by Sum of all

frequencies.
Cumulative Frequency: 10, 40, 80, 100.
Class Boundaries

Class Width

800.5 to less than 1000.5

Contingency Tables; Dependent Variable Birth Weight; Independent Variable

Smoked While Pregnant.

28

Pie Diagram; Advantage They are very simple and can be understood even by a lay
man; Disadvantages (1) It can only represent one variable (2) loses clarity if it is
used to represent more than four or five categories.

29

A Histogram; B Frequency Polygon; Disadvantage of Histograms It can

represent only one variable at a time and this can make comparisons between two
variables difficult; Advantage of Frequency Polygon It can represent more than one
variable at a time and hence comparison between variables can be made.

30

Stem and Leaf Plot; Advantages: (1) Contrary to Histograms and Grouped Frequency
Tables, we do not lose information on individual observations. (2) It provides a very
condensed and summarized way of presenting data, and yet is very detailed.

31

Dotplots; 1) One of the simplest methods for graphing and understanding quantitative
data. (2) Easily helps us to detect outliers (also called extreme values) in a data set.

32

Mean = 3; Median = 2.5; Mode = 2.

33

(1) Rank the data in increasing order [21, 22, 28, 28, 32, 76, 84]
(2) Q2 is the same as the Median [ Q2 = 28]
(3) Q1 and Q3 are the Middle Values for the data series that lie Below the Median
[Q1 = 22], and Above the Median [Q3 = 76].
Box Plot; A = Maximum Value; B = Third Quartile; C = Second Quartile/Median; D =
First Quartile; E = Minimum Value.
