Background: A new classification for Periodontal and Peri-implant Diseases and Conditions was introduced in the 2017 World Workshop. In the past the 1999 Armitage Classification was commonly used in practice. This study aimed to assess the ease and practicability of retroactively diagnosing a subset of patients formerly diagnosed using the 1999 AAP/CDC classification with the 2017 AAP/EFP disease classification.

Focused Clinical Question: With the 2018 AAP/EFP disease classification with the staging and grading systems, does risk assessment for different ethnic group result in a different focus for clinical needs? This comparative analysis aimed to assess two previously reported cohort studies in African-American (Af-A) and Asian-American (As-A) as to the risk for these two populations for clinical attachment loss (CAL) and gingival phenotype.
Summary: In comparison of As-A and Af-A cohorts, As-A had higher frequency of thin tissue phenotype, less width of keratinized gingiva (KGW), and more gingival recession (GR). On other hands, Af-A showed higher prevalence of thick phenotype, longer total tooth length and root length (RL).
