Validity of Clinical Assessments Related to the Cemento-enamel Junction

The distance measured from a constant reference to the subgingival cemento-enamel junction by four observers with two different probes in 11 patients was compared to independent precision measurements of the same distance performed during periodontal surgery. The findings question the validity of pr...

Zusammenfassung:The distance measured from a constant reference to the subgingival cemento-enamel junction by four observers with two different probes in 11 patients was compared to independent precision measurements of the same distance performed during periodontal surgery. The findings question the validity of probe measurements with relation to the cemento-enamel junction.
