HYGIENIC INDEX BY FEDOROVVOLODKINA(1971):

To determine the index examined mouth surface of

6 teeth: 43(83), 42(82), 41(81), 31(71), 32(72),
33(73),
painted with special solutions (Schiller-Pisarev,
fuchsine, erythrosine) to assess the presence of
plaque.

THE CODES OF ASSESEMENT:

1 - plaque is not identified;
2 staining of one quarter of the surface of a tooth
crown;
3 - staining of half of the surface of the tooth crown;
4 - staining of three-quarters of the surface of the
tooth crown;
5 - staining of the whole surface of the tooth crown.

BEFORE AND AFTER THE STAINING

HY= the sum of all points of the teeth/ number

studied teeth (6).

METRICS:
1,1 - 1,5 points - good level of hygiene;
1.6 - 2.0 points - satisfactory;
2.1 to 2.5 points - unsatisfactory;
2.6 to 3.4 points -bad;
3.5 - 5.0 - very bad.

ORAL HYGIENIC INDEX SIMPLE BY

GREEN-VERMILLION (OHI-s) (1969):

The definition of the supra - and subgingival calculus - with

the help of dental probe, of the plaque with solutions,
exploring the vestibular surface of 16, 11, 26, 31 and oral
surface of 46, 36.

10

Codes for the assessment of Tartar:

0 -the tartar is not detected;

1 - supragingival dental calculus, covering not more
than 1/3 of the surface of the tooth;
2 - supragingival dental calculus, covering more
than 1/3, but less than 2/3 of the surface of the
tooth;
3 - supragingival dental calculus, covering more
than 2/3 of the surface of the tooth.

Codes of assessment of plaque:

0 the plaque is not detected;
1 - plaque doesnt cover more than 1/3 of the surface of the tooth;
2 - plaque covers more than 1/3, but no more than 2/3
the surface of the tooth;
3 - plaque covers more than 2/3 of the surface of the tooth.

FORMULA:
OHI-S= sum of points of tartar + sum of points of

plaque/ the number of teeth(?).

HYGIENE EFFICIENCY INDEX () BY

Podshadley, Haley, (1968)

For the assessment of plaque paint 6 teeth: 16, 26,

11, 31 - vestibular surfaces; 36, 46 - lingual surfaces.

1 - medial
2 lateral
3 - cervical
4 - central
5 - occlusion

CODES OF ASSESSMENT:

1 staining is

sum of points of the teeth (in 5 sites of each)

GINGIVITIS INDEX (), PARMAS

MODIFICATION, 1960 .
To assess the severity of gingivitis is used papillary-marginalalveolar index (PMA).
The assessment of gums inflammation is carried out visually or
staining by Schiller-Pisarevs solution.
CODES OF ASSESSMENT:
0 inflammation isnt detected ;
1 - inflammation of gingival papilla (P);
2 - inflammation of the marginal part of gums (M);
3 - inflammation of the alveolar part of the gums (A).

FORMULA:
sum of the points
= ---------------------- 100%

Normally PMA Index = 0.
CODES OF ASSESSMENT:
30% or less light severity of gingivitis;
3160 % medium severity;
61% or more heavy severity.
