The prevalence and severity of periodontal disease were assessed in 2039, 15-16 year old Jordanian adolescents using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN). The findings revealed that around 37 per cent of the subjects had a healthy periodontium (score 0), whilst 40 per cent had bleeding on probing (score 1). Calculus deposits (score 2) were found in 17.4 per cent of the subjects. Both shallow and deep pockets (scores 3 and 4) were present in only a small percentage of the sample (5.32 per cent and 0.29 per cent, respectively). When the severity of the periodontal condition was assessed, it was found that bleeding on probing was present in 2.4 sextants per person and calculus deposits in 1.04 sextants per person. The sextants which were affected by shallow and deep pockets were minimal (0.32 and 0.02 sextant per person respectively). The mean number of healthy sextants per person was found to be 2.22. These findings indicate that gingival rather than periodontal disease is more common in Jordanian adolescents.
使用社区牙周治疗需求指数（CPITN）对2039名15 - 16岁的约旦青少年的牙周疾病患病率和严重程度进行了评估。研究结果显示，约37%的受试者牙周健康（评分为0），而40%的受试者探诊出血（评分为1）。17.4%的受试者有牙石沉积（评分为2）。仅一小部分样本（分别为5.32%和0.29%）存在浅袋和深袋（评分为3和4）。在评估牙周状况的严重程度时，发现每人有2.4个牙面探诊出血，1.04个牙面有牙石沉积。受浅袋和深袋影响的牙面极少（每人分别为0.32和0.02个牙面）。发现每人健康牙面的平均数为2.22。这些结果表明，在约旦青少年中，牙龈疾病而非牙周疾病更为常见。
