Many definitions of periodontitis have been used in the literature for population-based studies, but there is no accepted standard. In early epidemiologic studies, the two major periodontal diseases, gingivitis and periodontitis, were combined and considered to be a continuum. National United States surveys were conducted in 1960 to 1962, 1971 to 1974, 1981, 1985 to 1986, 1988 to 1994, and 1999 to 2000. The case definitions and protocols used in the six national surveys reflect a continuing…

Update of the case definitions for population-based surveillance of periodontitis.
TLDR
Total periodontitis using the case definitions in this study should be based on the sum of mild, moderate, and severeperiodontitis.
Standards for reporting chronic periodontitis prevalence and severity in epidemiologic studies: Proposed standards from the Joint EU/USA Periodontal Epidemiology Working Group.
TLDR
Standardized principles for the reporting of the prevalence and severity of periodontal diseases in future epidemiological studies are suggested to ensure improved reporting quality, permit meaningful comparisons ofThe prevalence of periodental diseases across populations, and provide better insights into the determinants of such variation.
Comparison and Agreement among Various Case Definitions of Periodontitis: A Secondary Data Analysis
TLDR
The prevalence of periodontitis is greatly influenced by the choice of the case definition, and prevalence rates with definition II could be more accurate if the true prevalence is determined by definition Va.
Measuring periodontitis in population studies: a literature review
TLDR
There is a need for a uniform case definition for prevalence surveys and population-specific definitions for association studies, and a variety of case definitions being employed in prevalence and risk factor studies.
Chronic Periodontitis Case Definitions and Confounders in Periodontal Research: A Systematic Assessment
TLDR
It is necessary to standardize periodontitis case definitions worldwide to avoid difficulties in case diagnosis and prognosis and further studies need to be done to assess the association betweenperiodontitis and several potential confounders.
The Prevalence of Periodontitis in the US
TLDR
New epidemiologic data on periodontal status derived from the 2009-2010 cycle of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) are published in this issue of the Journal of Dental Research and it is still unknown whether the partial NHANES methodology results in a consistent degree of bias across different levels of extent and severity of periodontitis.
Epidemiologic patterns of chronic and aggressive periodontitis.
TLDR
The present text limited the present text to epidemiologic studies published over the past decade, anticipating that they would have utilized the 1999 World Workshop nomenclature, and addressed the issue of disease onset and the impact of age in the determination of diagnosis.
Update on Prevalence of Periodontitis in Adults in the United States: NHANES 2009 to 2012.
TLDR
A high prevalence of periodontitis in US adults aged ≥30 years is confirmed, with almost fifty-percent affected, and the prevalence was greater in non-Hispanic Asians than non- Hispanic whites, although lower than other minorities.
Underestimation of periodontitis in NHANES surveys.
TLDR
If a survey uses a partial-mouth examination it is recommended that the amount of underestimation be assessed in the same sample and inflation factors should be calculated and used to adjust for the underestimation in disease prevalence because of the use of partial examination.
Do the clinical criteria used to diagnose periodontitis affect the association with prematurity?
TLDR
The findings suggest that the association betweenperiodontitis and preterm birth is influenced by the definitions of periodontitis used, and this should not be considered a cause for concern.

Clinical criteria for the definition of "established periodontitis".
The objective of The Present study was to define criteria for the diagnosis of "established periodontitis." This term will define subjects who have demonstrated clinical attachment loss, and as such…
Design issues specific to studies of periodontitis.
TLDR
Large gaps in knowledge about the design of periodontitis trials still exist, and additional research is needed, but this paper focuses on three design issues.
A System of Classification and Scoring for Prevalence Surveys of Periodontal Disease
TLDR
A method for scoring the effects of periodontal disease which permits quantitative comparisons between or within human populations, and which may be applied swiftly and with a minimum of equipment in the field is described.
Periodontal diseases in the U.S. in 1981: prevalence, severity, extent, and role in tooth mortality.
TLDR
periodontitis (pockets greater than or equal to 4 mm) affected approximately 36% of the population and was usually found on only one or two teeth when present, while end-stage periodontal destruction requiring extraction of teeth was found in only 4% of all persons while less than 20% ofall missing teeth were listed as missing due to periodontals disease.
Distribution of periodontal disease in a Swedish adult population 1973, 1983 and 1993.
TLDR
The aim of this study was to compare changes in periodontal status in a Swedish population over a period of 20 years, and it is seen that an increase in the number of individuals with no marginal bone loss and a decrease in the many individuals with moderate alveolar bone loss can be seen.
Prevalence and trends in periodontitis in the USA: the [corrected] NHANES, 1988 to 2000.
TLDR
The findings indicate that the prevalence of periodontitis has decreased between the NHANES III and theNHANES 1999-2000 for all racial/ethnic groups in the USA.
Destructive periodontal disease in adults 30 years of age and older in the United States, 1988-1994.
TLDR
The results show that black and Mexican American males have poorer periodontal health than the rest of the U.S. adult population, and primary and secondary preventive measures should be specifically targeted towards these groups.
National trends in the prevalence and severity of the periodontal diseases.
TLDR
It would seem that a decline in edentulism and an increase in number of teeth per person may well contribute to circumstances that will lead to greater, not lesser, risk of advanced periodontal disease problems in the later decades of life.
Longitudinal study of untreated periodontitis (I). Clinical findings.
The principal aim of this study was to investigate the use of certain clinical and microbiological criteria to predict periodontal breakdown during a 1-year period. A further aim was to establish…
Analytical epidemiology of periodontitis.
TLDR
A conspicuous lack of uniformity in the definition of periodontitis used in epidemiologic studies, and findings from different research groups are not readily interpretable, means there is a clear need for longitudinal prospective studies that address hypotheses emerging from the cross-sectional data and include established risk factors as covariates along with new exposures of interest.
