NOTICE
The authors and publisher have made every effort to ensure that the patient care
recommended herein, including choice of drugs and drug dosages, is in accord with
the accepted standard and practice at the time of publication. However, since research
and regulation constantly change clinical standards, the reader is urged to check the
product information sheet included in the package of each drug, which includes
recommended doses, warnings, and contraindications. This is particularly important
with new or infrequently used drugs. Any treatment regimen, particularly one
involving medication, involves inherent risk that must be weighed on a case-by-case
basis against the benefits anticipated. The reader is cautioned that the purpose of this
book is to inform and enlighten; the information contained herein is not intended as,
and should not be employed as, a substitute for individual diagnosis and treatment.

PREFACE
Earlier editions of this book, which were titled Decision Making in Periodontology,
illustrated the thought processes used in determining optimal therapy for individual
patients as conceived by various experts of the field. This fourth edition takes learning
a step farther by providing readers with the means to use the knowledge they have
already acquired in the practice of periodontics. Renamed Critical Decisions in
Periodontology, this fourth edition describes common clinical problems and how
practitioners go about deciding what should be done. The approach offers an
algorithm (decision tree) for solving each clinical problem as it may be experienced in
practice. Chapters describe common clinical problems and, guided by the thinking of
experts, allow the reader to arrive at decisions that would take much longer to
contrive if guided only by classical teaching texts. Several commonly available
additional readings are provided for further details.
This updated and enhanced text should continue to serve the needs of several groups
in the fields of dental care. Experienced clinicians may seek answers to specific
problems and compare their methods with those outlined. Teachers of periodontology
may use this text as a stimulus to rethink modes of presenting information and as a
model to test whether students have grasped the concepts they have been taught and
are able to use them in a practical manner. Undergraduate students will find this
material useful in integrating concepts that they have been taught in a more
conventional way, and postgraduate students may argue the merits of the decision-
making process as outlined and rewrite the decision trees. Auxiliary personnel will
find the material helpful in understanding why specific things happen in certain ways
within the dental office. In the rapidly progressing and contentious field of
periodontology, some of the decision making presented by our international group of
authors may be controversial; however, if the decision trees presented here stimulate
thought and discussion, the book will have fulfilled its purpose.
Many thanks to Brian Decker who conceived the idea of books that help dental care
providers use their knowledge to make decisions in dental care, and to Charmaine
Sherlock and Paula Presutti, who edited this text. Thanks also to all of those talented
individuals who contributed chapters. Special thanks to Dr. Eric Curtis, who provided
the illustrations, and to my family, Fran, Scott, and Greg, for their encouragement
during the preparation of this book.

INTRODUCTION
Each two-page chapter in this text consists of an algorithm or decision tree, which
usually appears on the right-hand page, and a brief explanatory text with illustrations
and additional readings, which begin on the left-hand page. The decision tree is the
focus of each chapter and should be studied first in detail. The letters on the decision
tree refer the reader to the text, which provides a brief explanation of the basis for
each decision. Boxes have been used on the decision tree to indicate invasive
procedures or the use of drugs. A combination of line drawings and halftones were
selected to clarify the text. Cross-references have been inserted to avoid repeating
information given in other chapters. Additional readings that are likely to be readily
available to the practitioner have been selected.
Chapters have been grouped by general concepts in the order that follows the typical
sequence of therapy in periodontal practice. An index is included to guide the reader
further in locating specific information.
The decisions outlined here relate to typical situations. Unusual cases may require the
clinician to consider alternatives; however, in every case, the clinician must consider
all aspects of an individual patients data. The algorithms presented here are not meant
to represent a rigid guideline for thinking but rather a skeleton to be fleshed out by
additional factors in each individual patients case.
