Abstract

New approaches to periodontal diagnosis, including advanced microbiologic, biochemical, and genetic tests,have been shown to provide the clinician with the information not available by traditional means. Thepurpose of a diagnostic test is to confirm, exclude, classify, or monitor disease to guide treatment. Theirclinical value depends on whether the information they provide leads to improved patient outcomes. Thiscan be assessed by randomized trials, which compare patient outcomes from the new diagnostic test versusthe old test strategy. So, the current paper aims to focus on the practical utility of this rapidly emergingplethora of periodontal microbiological diagnostic tools, emphasizing the critical issues surrounding theclinical application of microbiologic investigations, employed for periodontal diagnosis.
