The American Academy of Periodontology has developed the following parameter on periodontitis associated with systemic conditions. Patients affected by periodontal disease with concomitant systemic factors should be informed about the significance of the systemic condition(s) to the periodontal disease process. Patients should also be informed of the periodontal disease process, therapeutic alternatives, potential complications, expected results, and their responsibilities in treatment. Consequences of no periodontal treatment should be explained. Failure to treat periodontitis appropriately can result in progressive loss of periodontal supporting tissues, an adverse change in prognosis, tooth loss, and compromise of the dentition. Given this information, patients should then be able to make informed decisions regarding their periodontal therapy.
美国牙周病学会制定了以下关于与全身状况相关的牙周炎的参数。患有牙周疾病并伴有全身因素的患者应被告知全身状况对牙周疾病进程的重要性。还应告知患者牙周疾病进程、治疗选择、潜在并发症、预期结果以及他们在治疗中的责任。应解释不进行牙周治疗的后果。不适当治疗牙周炎可能导致牙周支持组织逐渐丧失、预后不良改变、牙齿脱落以及牙列受损。了解这些信息后，患者应能够就其牙周治疗做出明智的决定。
