Abstract

The Periotest is a new instrument for the diagnosis of periodontal diseases. The 'Periotest value' depends to some extent on tooth mobility, but mainly on the damping characteristics of the periodontium. The Periotest measures the reaction to a reproducible impact applied to the tooth crown. The Periotest value is a biophysical parameter.
