The purpose of the present study was to evaluate a clinical procedure for determining the proficiency of gingivitis examiners. After 4 examiner trainees were instructed by and participated in practice examination sessions with a senior examiner, the 5 examiners participated in a 2-group clinical study which employed appropriately timed-staggered dental prophylaxes to create a gingivitis treatment effect between the 2 groups. The 1st group received dental prophylaxes 30 days before the 2nd group. 10 days after the 2nd group had received dental prophylaxes, both groups were examined independently by all 5 examiners. Baseline examinations had been made on all subjects by all 5 examiners independently to serve as a covariable in the statistical analyses. During this clinical exercise, the examiners did not know at what time prophylaxes had been given nor did they have access to the previous examination records. The expected presence of a treatment effect, as confirmed by the senior examiner, was found by all of the examiner trainees in this exercise. The treatment effect for all examiners was statistically significant.
本研究的目的是评估一种用于确定牙龈炎检查者熟练程度的临床程序。在4名实习检查者接受一名资深检查者的指导并参与实践考试后，这5名检查者参与了一项两组临床研究，该研究采用适当时间错开的牙齿预防性洁治，以在两组之间产生牙龈炎治疗效果。第一组在第二组前30天接受牙齿预防性洁治。在第二组接受牙齿预防性洁治10天后，两组由所有5名检查者独立进行检查。所有5名检查者已对所有受试者进行了基线检查，以作为统计分析中的协变量。在这次临床操作中，检查者不知道何时进行了预防性洁治，也无法获取先前的检查记录。在这次操作中，所有实习检查者都发现了如资深检查者所确认的预期治疗效果。所有检查者的治疗效果在统计学上具有显著性。
