In a patient without gingival recession, the distance between base of pocket and cementoenamel junction is 4 mm and that of free gingival margin to cementoenamel junction is 3 mm. Total depth of the pocket
1. 7 mm
2. 3 mm
3. 4 mm
4. 10 mm
In a patient without gingival recession, the total depth of the pocket is 7 mm.
While using a periodontal probe to measure the depth of the periodontal pocket the pocket is measured from
1. Free gingival margin to the cementoenamel junction
2. Junctional epithelium to the free gingival margin
3. Base of pocket to the cementoenamel junction
4. Base of pocket to mucogingival junction
Pedodontics
Answer: 2
While using a periodontal probe, the pocket is measured from the junctional epithelium to the free gingival margin.
