High-Speed Filming of the Periotest Measurement

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1992
Abstract Periodontal disease may be diagnosed with the Periotest technique, which involves electronically controlled and reproducible percussion of tooth. The movement on percussion was investigated with high‐speed film and then compared with the return of teeth after static deflection for several seconds as has been reported previously by Lukas and ...

Periotest for Measuring Periodontal Characteristics–Correlation With Periodontal Bone Loss

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1992
The Periotest measures the reaction of the periodontium to a defined percussive force. The percussion is applied to the tooth by an electronically controlled tapping head. Information on structural change is obtained by measurement of both the elastic and viscous characteristics of the periodontium.

The Use of Periotest as a Diagnostic Tool in Endodontics [PDF]

, 2023
Introduction: Periotest is a device that measures the damping characteristics of the periodontium. It has a tapping head which percusses the tooth 16 times in 4 seconds. This sensitive tip records the duration of contact with the tooth and gives us a reading. The Periotest value (PTV) is ranging from -8 to +50. The more mobile the tooth is, the contact

Damping Characteristics of Bone-to-Implant Interface; A Clinical Study With the Periotest® Device.

Clinical Oral Implants Research, 1995
The Periotest® device was used to evaluate the damping characteristics of different bone‐to‐implant interfaces of Brånemark implants. Implant and abutment lengths were found to have a significant influence on Periotest value (PTV). There was no statistical difference between PTVs of implants located in the anterior and posterior areas of the same jaw ...

In Vitro Consistency of the Periotest Instrument

Journal of Prosthodontics, 1993
Purpose The consistency of measuring the damping characteristics using the Periotest (Siemens AG, Bensheim, Germany) was studied.Materials and Methods Periotest values (PTV) of three rods embedded in various depths of impression material were recorded by seven dentists.Results There is no statistically significant difference among the subjects in ...

The Periotest in Traumatology. Part I. Does It Have the Properties Necessary for Use as a Clinical Device and Can the Measurements Be Interpreted?

Dental Traumatology, 2003
The Periotest is a non-invasive, electronic device which provides an objective measurement of the reaction of the periodontium to a defined impact load applied to the tooth crown.

Periotest® Measurements and Osseointegration of Mandibular ITI Implants Supporting Overdentures. A One-Year Longitudinal Study.

Clinical Oral Implants Research, 1995
The Periotest values of mandibular implants, registered before and after loading by overdentures, were compared. Thirty edentulous patients with 60 Bonefit ITI implants were selected with an average age of 69 years.

Periotest-a dynamic procedure for the diagnosis of the human periodontium

Clinical Physics and Physiological Measurement, 1990
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.

Evaluation of the Implant Master Cast by Means of the Periotest Method

Implant Dentistry, 1999
Accurate master casts are essential for the construction of implant-supported prostheses with a precision of fit. The stability of the abutment replicas in the master cast is critical in the accurate reproduction of the patient's oral presentation. The Periotest method is an objective method of quantifying mobility in a tooth and implant.
