4 Scaling Root planning Vs Surgery 4

5 Basis of Study Not all patients respond favorably to a standardized care Specific characteristics help determine treatment outcomes Important to classify population according to background characteristics and covariates 5

6 Background CDC/AAP classification: Mild, Moderate, Severe (American Dental Association, 1986) Latent Class Analysis (LCA): Statistical method for identifying discrete classes of individuals on basis of set of observed categorical variable Dental Atherosclerosis Risk in Community Study (DARIC) derived 7 Periodontal and 7 Tooth Profile classes (PPC/TPC) developed at UNC School of dentistry (Thiago et al, Feb 2017) 6

7 PPC Calculation 7 full-mouth clinical periodontal measures (32*7=224) 1. 1 site with interproximal attachment level (IAL) 3 mm 2. 1 site with PD 4 mm 3. Extent of bleeding on probing (BOP, dichotomized at 50% or 3 sites per tooth) 4. Gingival inflammation index14 (GI, dichotomized as GI = 0 versus GI 1) 5. Plaque index15 (PI, dichotomized as PI = 0 versus Pl 1) 6. Presence/absence of full prosthetic crowns for each tooth 7. Tooth status presence (present versus absent) 7 (Thiago et al, 2017)

8 TPC Calculation 1. Interproximal AL (<3 mm = 0, 1 site with 3 or 4 mm = 1, and 5 mm = 2) 2. Direct attachment level (measured at direct buccal and lingual <3 mm = 0, 1 site with 3 or 4 mm = 1, and 5 mm = 2) 3. Interproximal PD(<4 mm = 0, 1 site with 4 or 5 mm = 1, and 6 mm = 2) 4. Direct PD (<4 mm = 0, 1 site with 4 or 5 mm = 1, and 6 mm = 2); 5. Interproximal gingival recession (IGR, dichotomized as IGR 1 versus IGR >1); 6. Direct GR (measured at direct buccal and lingual, dichotomized as DGR 1 versus DGR >1); 7. (dichotomized at <3 versus 3 sites per tooth); 8. GI (dichotomized as GI = 0 versus GI 1); 9. Plaque Index PI (dichotomized as PI = 0 versus Pl 1); 10. Decayed coronal surface (DCS, dichotomized as DCS = 0 versus DCS 1); 11. Filled coronal surface (FCS, dichotomized as FCS = 0 versus FCS 1); 12. Decayed root surface (DRS, dichotomized as DRS = 0 versus DRS 1); 13. Filled root surface (FRS, dichotomized FRS = 0 versus FRS 1) 14. Presence/absence of full prosthetic crowns (Thiago et al,

9 Objective Latent Class Analysis(LCA) classification method is sensitive to determine outcome based patient specific treatment in the field of dentistry. The study analyzes, visualizes, and predicts patient treatment outcomes of two most commonly performed periodontal procedures, scaling/ root-planing(sc/rt) and surgery(surg) 9

10 Introduction to Datasets Total number of UNC Electronic Patient Record(EPR) subjects No. of SC/RP & Surgery visits in EPR dataset 9502 (Total Subjects) 2409 (SC/RT) 273 (Surgery) 6820 (Others) 10

11 Difference in days from the last exam visit to 1 st treatment visit & last treatment visit to 1 st after treatment exam visit 65 days cutoff 34 days cutoff 187 days cutoff 51 days cutoff t = Treatment Date visit e before = Exam visit just before treatment date e after = Exam visit just after treatment date 11

12 Process Flow Cleaned EPR datasets SAS PROC LCA (32*7=224 dichotomous variable) 7PPC/7TPC stratification of population 12

14 How is LCA derived PPC a better outcome classifier than CDC/ADA Classification? BOP(Bleeding %) and PD(Pocket depth) change at PPC level BOP and PD change of measurements in CDC classification PPC-A PPC-B PPC-C PPC-D PPC-E PPC-F PPC-G Health Mild Disease High GI Tooth Loss Posterior Disease Severe Tooth Loss Severe Disease Health Mild Moderate Severe 14

20 Conclusion Precise patient stratification at individual and tooth level. Detailed stratification than the traditional CDC/AAP classification Applicable to other datasets across different dental schools 20

21 Strengths and Limitations Strengths of the study: o Relevant large population with records past 5 years o Validated using 3 large population databases (DARIC, NHANES, PDS) o Classifies at individual tooth level Limitations of the study: o Age distribution of population (mean 58 years) o Irregularity of patient visits: Different cutoffs o No genetic intervention in the study 21

22 Future Work Combine EPR study with Periodontitis and Vascular Events (PAVE) study conducted at 5 clinical centers (the University at Buffalo, University of North Carolina, Boston University, Kaiser Permanente/Oregon Health and Sciences University, University of Maryland) (Offenbacher S et al, 2009) Incorporating PPC/TPC classification and risk scores in UNC patient reports for patient risk identification 22
