Welcome to our first video in the Periodontics series for your board exam preparation! We talk about the periodontium (alveolar bone, PDL, cementum, and gingiva) and what the differences are between a healthy periodontal apparatus, gingivitis, and periodontitis. We will also cover some details about a routine periodontal exam including how to measure PPD and CAL. Thanks for watching!
