SHICK AND ASH MODIFICATION OF PLAQUE CRITERIA The original criteria of the plaque component of Ramfjords Periodontal Disease

Index was modified by Shick R.A and Ash M.M in 1961. The modified criteria consists of examining the six selected teeth by excluding consideration of the interproximal areas of the teeth and restricting the scoring of plaque to the gingival half of the facial and lingual surfaces of the index teeth. SCORING SYSTEM: Code 0 1 Criteria Absence of dental plaque Dental plaque in the interproximal areas or at the gingival margin covering less than one third of the gingival half of the facial or lingual surface of the tooth Dental plaque covering more than 1/3rd but less than 2/3rd of the gingival half of the facial or lingual surface of the tooth Dental plaque covering 2/3rd or more of the gingival half of the facial and lingual surface of the tooth.

Calculation: The plaque score per person is obtained by totalling all of the individual tooth scores and dividing by number of teeth examined. i.e. Total Score Number of teeth examined.

TURESKY-GILMORE-GLICKMAN MODIFICATION OF THE QUIGLEY HEIN PLAQUE INDEX Quigley G. and Hein J in 1962, reported a plaque measurement that focussed on the gingival third of the tooth surface. They examined only the facial surfaces of the anterior teeth, using a basic fuschin mouthwash as a disclosing agent. A numerical scoring system of 0 to 5 was used.Turesky S., Gilmore N.D and Glickman I modified the Quigley Hein plaque index in 1970. This modification of the Quigley Hein Plaque Index was done by strengthening the objectivity of Quigley Hein Plaque Index criteria by redefining the scores of the gingival third area. Plaque was assessed on the labial, buccal and lingual surfaces of all the teeth after using a disclosing agent. The modified technique of scoring plaque on the labial, buccal and lingual surfaces provides as comprehensive method for evaluating anti plaque procedures such as tooth brush and flossing as well as chemical anti plaque agents. This index emphasizes the differences in plaque accumulation in the gingival third of the tooth. Scoring System Code 0 1 2 3 4 5 Criteria No plaque. Separate flecks of plaque at the cervical margin of the tooth A thin continuous band of plaque (upto 1mm) at the cervical margin. A band of plaque wider than 1 mm but covering less than 1/3rd of the crown of the tooth. Plaque covering atleast 1/3rd but less than 2/3rd of the crown Plaque covering 2/3rd or more of the crown.

Score = CALCULUS SURFACE INDEX (CSI) The Calculus Surface Index (CSI) was developed by Ennever J, Sturzenberger C.P and Radike A.W in 1961. The CSI is one of the two indices that are used in short term (i.e. less than 6 weeks) clinical trials of calculus inhibitory agents. The objective of this study is to determine rapidly whether a specific agent has any effect on reducing or preventing supragingivak and subgingival calculus. Method The CSI assesses the presence or absence of supragingival and/or supragingival calculus on the four mandibular incisors. The index has also been applied to the six mandibular anterior teeth. Each incisor is divided into four scoring units. The facial surface is considered one unit, and the lingual surface is divided longitudinally into three subsections, the distal-lingual third, the lingual third, and the mesial lingual third. The total number of surfaces with calculus is considered the CSI score per person. The calculus surface index has been shown to have good intra examiner reproducibility and the examination can be performed in a relatively short period of time, Hence, using a 1 to indicate the presence of calculus (and a 0 the absence of calculus), the maximum number of surfaces (scoring four mandibular incisors) per person that could have calculus is 16.

CALCULUS SURFACE SEVERITY INDEX (CSSI) The Calculus Surface Severity Index (CSSI) was developed by Ennever J et al in 1961 as a companion index to their Calculus Surface index (CSI). The CSSI measures the quantity of calculus present on a scale of 0 to 3 on each of the surfaces examined for CSI. The criteria for CSSI are as follows: Code 0 1 2 3 Criteria No Calculus present Calculus observable but less than 0.5mm in width and/or thickness Calculus not exceeding 1.0mm in width and/or thickness Calculus exceeding 1.0mm in width and/or thickness

PERIODONTAL INDEX The Periodontal Index (PI) was developed by Rusell A.L. in 1956. The PI was intended to estimate deeper periodontal disease by measuring the presence or absence of gingival inflammation and its severity, pocket formation and masticatory function. The PI is probably the most widely used periodontal index in epidemiological surveys around the world. The PI is a composite index because it records both the reversible changes due to gingivitis and the more destructive and presumably irreversible changes brought by deeper periodontal disease. Method: All the teeth present are examined. All of the gingival tissue circumscribing each tooth (i.e. all of the tissue circumscribing a tooth is considered a scoring or gingival unit) is assessed for gingival inflammation and periodontal involvement. Scoring Criteria: Russel chose the scoring values (0,1,2,6,8) in order to relate the stages of the disease in an epidemiological survey to the clinical conditions observed. Calculation of the Index: The Periodontal Index Score (PI Score) per individual is obtained by adding all of the individual scores and dividing by the number of teeth present or examined. i.e PI Score per person = Sum of Individual Scores/ Number of teeth present SCORE 0 1 CRITERIA AND SCORING FOR FIELD STUDIES NEGATIVE: there is neither overt inflammation in the investing tissues nor loss of function due to destruction of supporting tissues MILD GINGIVITS: There is an overt area of inflammation in the free gingiva but this area does not circumscribe the tooth

2 4 6 8

GINGIVIIS: inflammation completely circumscribing the tooth, but there is no apparent break in the epithelial attachment Used when radiographs are available GINGIVITIS WITH POCKET FORMATION ADVANCED DESTRUCTION WITH LOSS OF MASTICATORY FUNCTION

GINGIVAL INDEX The Gingival Index (GI) was developed by Loe H and Silness J in 1963. It is developed for assessing the severity of gingivitis and its location in four possible areas. Method: The severity of gingivitis is scored on all surfaces of all teeth or selected teeth or on selected surfaces of all teeth or selected teeth. The teeth selected as the index teeth are: 16- Maxillary Right First Molar 12- Maxillary Left Lateral Incisor 24- Maxillary Left First Premolar

36- Mandibular Left First Molar 32- Mandibular Left Lateral Incisor 44- Mandibular Right First Premolar The tissues surrounding each tooth are divided into four gingival scoring units: distal facial papilla, facial margin, mesial facial papilla and entire lingual gingival margin. Score 0 1 Criteria Absence of inflammation/normal gingiva Mild inflammation, slight change in colour, slight edema, no bleeding on probing

2 Moderate Inflammation, Moderate glazing, redness, edema and hypertrophy, Bleeding on probing 3 Severe inflammation, marked redness and hypertrophy ulceration, spontaneous bleeding Calculation of Index If the scores around each tooth are totalled and divided by four, the gingival index score for the tooth is obtained. The numerical scores of the gingival index maybe associated with varying degrees of clinical gingivitis as follows:Gingival Scores 0.1.1.0 0.1.2.0 2.1-3.0 D M Severe Gingivitis Conditions Mild Gingivitis Moderate Gingivitis

PAPILLARY-MARGINAL-ATTACHMENT INDEX (PMA INDEX) The papillary-marginal-attachment index (PMA index) developed by Maury Massler and Schour I. in 1944 is probably the first successful attempt to design a numerical system for recording gingival health. A gingival unit was divided into three component parts. 1. Papillary Gingivae (P)- The gingival portion between the teeth. 2. Marginal Gingivae (M)- the marginal collar surrounding the teeth, and 3. Attached Gingivae (A)- the gingival portion overlying the bony alvedolar process.

The presence or absence of inflammation an each gingival unit is recorded respectively. The maxillary and mandibular incisors, canines and premolars are examined. The idea of using the PMA index is to express the degree of gingivitis for each gingival unit which is as follows: P- Involvement of the papillary gingival and its severity expressed in scores from 0 to5. M- Involvement of the marginal gingival and its severity expressed in scores from 0 to5. A- Involvement of the attached gingival and its severity to 3.

Mild gingivitis is confined to the papillary area (P) Moderate gingivitis means spread to marginal gingivae, (M) Severe gingivitis is identified by its spread to the attached gingival, (A)

Scoring Criteria : The degree of gingivitis for each gingival unit is scored as follows: P 0 Normal; no inflammation 1+ Mild papillary engorgement; slight increase in size. 2+ Obvious increase in size of gingival papilla; bleeding on pressure. 3+ Excessive increase in size with spontaneous bleeding . 4+ Necrotic papilla. 5+ Atrophy and loss of papilla ,(through inflammation) M 0 Normal; no inflammation visible. 1+ Engorgement; slight increase in size, nobleeding. 2+ Obvious engorgement; bleeding upon pressure. 3+ Swollen collar ; spontaneous bleeding beginning infiltration into attached gingivae. 4+ Necrotic gingivitis. 5+ Recession of the free marginal gingivae below the CEJ due to inflammatory changes. A 0 Normal; pale rose; stippled 1+ Slight engorgement with loss of stippling; changes in colour may or may not be present. 2+ Obvious engorgement of attached gingivae with marked increase in redness. Pocket formation present. 3+ Advanced periodontitis. Deep pockets evident.

Calculation of the Index: The number of affected Papillary, Marginal and Attached units are counted and the P,M and A numerical values are totalled separately, then added together and expressed numerically as the PMA index score per person. 15 14 13 12 11 21 22 23 24 25

MODIFIED GINGIVAL INDEX (MGI)

The Modified Gingival index (MGI, was developed by R.R. LOBENE, T. WEATHERFORD, N.M.ROSS, R.A. LAMM, AND L. MENAKER in 1986, as a modification of the Loe and Silness Gingival Index to assess the prevalence and severity of gingivitis.

Method : To obtain the MGI, the labial/facial and lingual surfaces of the gingival margins and the interdental papillae of all erupted teeth or selected teeth (same as in case of Gingival Index) are examined and scored using the following

Score 0 1 = =

Criteria Normal (absence of inflammation) Mild inflammation (slight change in color, little change in texture ) of any portion of the gingival unit

2 3

= =

Mild inflammation of the entire gingival unit Moderate inflammation (moderate glazing, redness, edema, and/or hypertrophy) of the gingival unit

Severe inflammation (marked redness and edema /hypertrophy, spontaneous bleeding, or ulceration) of the gingival unit

The third molars are excluded. For a full mouth examination with 28 teeth, a maximum number of 108 gingival units (i.e, marginal and papillary) are examined and scored for gingivitis (i.e.56 marginal and 52 papillary). Again, for the MGI, the examination of gingivitis is strictly based on visual observation. There is no gentle probing or pressure to observe the presence or absence of bleeding.

Calculation : To calculate the MGI for an individual, the papillary and marginal scores are added and divided by the total number of sites (i.e, gingival units) examined.

SULCUS BLEEDING INDEX (SBI) The Sulcus Bleeding Index (SBI) is on index for assessment of gingival bleeding by Muhlemann H.R. and Son S. in 1971. This index system is a modification of the PapillaryMarginal Index (Pm index) of Muhlemann & Mazor (1958).

Method : The SBI is based on the evaluation of gingival bleeding on probing, gingival contour and gingival colour changes. Four gingival units are scored systematically for each tooth: the

labial and lingual marginal gingivae (M units), and the mesial and distal papillary gingivae (P units). Scoring Criteria : The assessment of gingival bleeding is done on a scale of 0-5 according to the following criteria : Score 0 1 Criteria Healthy appearance of P and M, No bleeding upon sulcus probing. Apparently healthy P and M, showing no colour or contour changes and no swelling, but bleeding from sulcus on probing. 2 Bleeding on probing and colour change caused by Inflammation (reddening).No swelling or macroscopic edema. 3 Bleeding, on probing, change in colour, slight edematous swelling. 4 (1) Bleeding on probing, colour change, obvious swelling. (2) Bleeding on probing and obvious swelling. 5 Spontaneous bleeding on probing, colour change, marked swelling with or without ulceration.

Calculation : Each of the four gingival units (M and P) is scored from 0 to 5 to obtain the SBI of the area. The scores for the four units are totaled and divided by four to obtain the SBI for the tooth. By totalling scores for individual teeth and number of teeth, the SBI is determined.

PAPILLARY BLEEDING INDEX (PBI):

The papillary Bleeding Index (PBI) was developed by Muhlemann H.R.as a modification of the Sulcus Bleeding Index (SBI) of Muhlemann and Son. The PBI is based on bleeding following gentle probing of the interdental papilla.

Method : The mouth is divided into quadrants, with the maxillary right and mandibular left quadrants probed lingually and the maxillary left and mandibular right quadrants probed buccally. The intensity of any bleeding thus provoked was recorded on a scale of 0 to 4.

Scoring Criteria :

Score 0 1 2

Criteria No bleeding after probing. A single discreet bleeding point appears after probing. Several isolated bleeding points or a single fine line of blood appears.

3 4

The interdental triangle fills with blood shortly after probing. Profuse bleeding occurs after probing; blood flows immediately into the marginal sulcus.

Calculation:

The scores are totalled and divided by the number of papilla examined.

MODIFIED SULCULAR BLEEDING INDEX

The Modified Sulcular Bleeding Index (mSBI),also known as the Modified Sulcus Bleeding Index, was developed in 1987 by A. Moblelli, M.A.Van Oasten, E. Schurch, Jr., and N.P. Land to determine the severity of gingival bleeding, a sign of inflammation that is associated with periodontal disease. A periodontal probe is used and passed along the gingival margin to provoke bleeding, and the clinical findings are recorded according to the following scores and criteria.

Score 0

Criteria No bleeding when a periodontal probe is passed along the gingival margin. Isolated bleeding spots visible . Blood forms a confluent red line on margin. Heavy or profuse bleeding.

EASTMAN INTERDENTAL BLEEDING INDEX (EIBI)

The Eastman Interdental Bleeding Index was developed by ABRAMS, K., CATON,J, and POLSON, A., in 1984, to assess the presence of inflammation in the interdental area by the presence or absence of bleeding.

Method: The examination is done on each interdental area around the entire dentition. A triangular wooden interdental cleaner is used for this index. The wooden interdental cleaner is inserted gently into each interdental area sand removed immediately in such a way as to depress the papilla about 1to 2 mm.

Scoring : The number of bleeding sites is totaled for an individual score for comporison with scores over a series of appointments. Caldualtion : The Index score is expressed as a percentage of the total number sites evaluated. The calculations can be made for total mouth, quadrants, or maxillary versus mandibular. The EIBI for and Individual can be calculated using the formula, EIBI = Number of bleeding area x 100 Total No. of areas

PLAQUE INDEX (PI) The plaque index was described by SILNESS P. and LOE H. in 1964 and more fully describe by LOE H in 1967. Method :The evaluation or scoring is done on entire dentition (whole mouth basis)or on selected teeth (selected mouth basis) .the surfaces examined are the 4 gingival areas of the tooth that is the distal facial, facial, mesial, facial and lingual surfaces. The mouth mirror, light source, dental explorer and air drying of the teeth an gingival are used in the scoring of this index . The six teeth that are evaluated when this index is done on selected theeth basis are ; Maxillary right first molar Maxillary right lateral incisor Maxillary left first bicuspid Mandibular left first molar Mandibular left lateral incisor (16) (12) (24) (36) (32)

Mandibular right first bicuspid (44)

Procedure The tooth is dried and examined visually. When no plaque is visible and explorer is used to test the surface. Scoring criteria Score 0 criteria no plaque

OHI (ORAL HYGIENE INDEX) The oral hygiene index was developed in 1960 by John C.Greene and Jack R. Vermillion to classify and assess oral hygiene status.Published in 1960, the Oral Hygiene Index was depicted as a sensitive,simple method for assessing group or individual oral hygiene quantitatively. It has wide acceptance and usage in surveys for assessing tooth brushing efficiency and frequency and evaluating community dental health practices. The OHI is considered a simple, rapid, and sensitive measure. Methodology: OHI is composed of the combined Debris Index(DI) and Calculus Index(CI) ,each of these index is in turn based on 12 numerical determinants representing the amount of debris or calculus found on the buccal and lingual surfaces of each of the three segments of each dental arch. Upper right posterior:distal to the right cuspid on the maxillary arch. Upper anterior:mesial to the right and left first bicuspids on the maxillary arch. Upper left posterior:distal to the left cuspid on the maxillary arch. Lower right posterior:distal to the right cuspid on the mandibular arch. Lower anterior:mesial to the right and left first bicuspids on the mandibular arch. Lower left posterior:distal to the left cuspid on the mandibular arch. Each segment is examined for debris or calculus.From each segment one tooth is used for calculating the individual index, for that particular segment.The tooth used calculation must have the greatest area covered by either debris or calculus. Debris index(DI) Score 0- No debris or stain present 1- Soft debris covering not more than one third of the tooth surface,AND/OR presence of extrinsic stains without other debris regardless of surface area covered. for the

2- Soft debris covering more than one third but not more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface. 3- Soft debris covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface.

Calculus Index(CI) Score 0-No calculus present 1- Supragingival calculus covering not more than one third surface. 2- Supragingival calculus covering more than one third but not more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface AND/OR the presence of individual flecks of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both. 3- Supragingival calculus covering more than two third of the exposed tooth surface AND/OR a continous band of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both.

SIMPLIFIED ORAL HYGIENE INDEX: The Oral Hygiene Index was developed in 1964 by John C. Greene and Jack

R.Vermillion, the developers of oral hygiene index(OHI).The simplified oral hygiene index differs from the original OHI in the number of the tooth surfaces scored(6 rather than 12), the method of selecting the surfaces to be scored,and the scores, which can be obtained. Surfaces and teeth to be examined: 16-upper right first molar 11-upper right central incisor 26-upper left first molar 36-lower left first molar 31-lower left central incisor 46-lower right first molar Examination methods and scoring system For the OHI-S , each surface,buccal or lingual, is considered half the tooth significance .Also only fully erupted permanent teeth are scored.Atooth is considered fully erupted when the occlusal or incisal plane has reached the occlusal plane. buccal surface labial surface buccal surface lingual labial lingual

Debris-index-Simplified Score 0- No debris or stain present 1- Soft debris not covering more than one third of the tooth surface, or presence of extrinsic stains without other debris regardless of surface area covered. 2- Soft debris covering more than one third, but not more than two thirds, of the exposed tooth surfaces. 3- Soft debris covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surfaces. Calculus Index simplified Score Criteria

0-No calculus present 1-Supragingival calculus covering not more than third of the exposed tooth surface. 2-Supragingival calculus covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or the presence individual flecks of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both. 3-Supragingival calculus covering more than two third of the exposed tooth surface or a continuous heavy band of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion of the tooth or both. Calculation of the Index: For each individual,the debris and calculus scores are totaled and divided by the number of tooth surfaces scored.For an individual score to be calculated,at least two of the six possible tooth surfaces must have been examined. Once the DI-S and CI-S are calculated separately,then they are combined or added together for the OHI-S. the DI-S and CI-S values range from 0 to 3,which can be interpreted as: Good 0.0 to 0.6

Fair Poor

0.7 to 1.8 1.9 to 3.0

The OHI-S value ranges from 0 to 6, which can be interpreted as : Good Fair Poor 0.0 to 1.2 1.3 to 3.0 3.1 to 6.0

GLASS INDEX The Glass Index system was developed by Glass R.L. in 1965. This index assesses the presence and extent of debris accumulation, for evaluating tooth-brushing efficacy. METHOD All the teeth present are examined. The surfaces examined are the facial (buccal/labial) and lingual surfaces which are scored as a unit. The criteria for scoring debris according to the Glass Criteria are as to follows: Code 0 1 Criteria No visible debris Debris visible at gingival margin but discontinuous less than 1mm in height 2 3 4 Debris continuous at gingival margin greater than 1mm in height Debris involving entire gingival third of tooth Debris generally scattered over tooth surface

CALCULATION OF GLASS INDEX SCORE The debris index score per person is obtained by totalling all the debris scores per tooth and then, dividing by the number of teeth examined, i.e. Debris index score per person = Total debris scores of all teeth examined total number of teeth examined. The Glass Criteria for scoring debris, places more emphasis on the gingival third of the tooth than does the OHI-S and so, this index is useful in clinical trials of preventive or therapeutic agents.

NAVY PLAQUE INDEX (NPI) The Navy Plaque Index was developed by GROSSMAN F.D. and FEDI P.F. in 1970. This index was designed to assess the plaque control status among naval personnels and to measure any subsequent changes. METHOD The Navy Plaque Index is obtained by scoring the amount of plaque found on six selected teeth (Index Teeth) by using a disclosing solution. The teeth examined are 16 21 24 36 41 44 Maxillary Right First Molar Maxillary Left Central Incisor Maxillary Left First Premolar Mandibular Left First Molar Mandibular Right Central Incisor Mandibular Right First Premolar

The surfaces examined are the facial and lingual surfaces of each of the six teeth. The facial and lingual surfaces are divided into three major areas, as; Gingival Area (G), Mesial Proximal Area (M) and Distal Proximal Area (D). Area M (Mesial Proximal) Area G (Gingival) = = 2 3 3

Area D (Distal Proximal) =

When plaque is found not in contact with gingival tissue but is found on any tooth surface, one point is added to the facial or lingual score.

CALCULATION OF INDEX The highest total for any of the six teeth scored is the patients Navy Plaque Index score. Scores of all teeth are added to give the total NPI score.

COMMUNITY PERIODONTAL INDEX OF TREATMENT NEEDS (CPITN) The community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN) was developed for the joint working committee of the World Health Organization and Federation Dentaire Internationale (WHO/FDI) by Jukka Ainamo., David Bares., George Beagrie., Terry Cutress., Jean Martin., and Jennifer Sardo-Infirri in 1982.

Primarily the CPITN is a screening procedure for identifying actual and potential problem posed by periodontal periodontal diseases both in a community and by the individual. With this information appropriate oral care services can be planned for populations and for individuals. PROCEDURE OF CPITN The dentition is divided into six parts (sextant), for assessment of periodontal treatment needs. Each sextant is given a score. For epidemiological purposes, the score is identified by examination of specified index teeth. For clinical practice, the highest score in each sextant is identified after examining all teeth. Essentially the CPITN considers the periodontal treatment needs of each sextant with respect to: i) ii) iii) iv) v) SEXTANT The mouth is divided into six sextant defined by tooth numbers as shown below: 17-14 47-44 13-23 43-33 24-27 34-37 No need for care (score 0) Bleeding gingivae on gently probing (score 1) Presence of calculus and other plaque retentive factors (score 2) Presence of 4 or 5mm pockets (score 3) Presence of 6mm or deeper pockets (score 4)

The third molars are not included, except where they are functioning in place of second molars. The treatment need in a sextant is recorded only if there are two or more teeth present and not indicated for extraction. When only one tooth remains in a sextant, it is included in the adjacent sextant. INDEX TEETH

In epidemiological surveys assessing the periodontal treatment needs of a population, the recording per sextant are based on findings form specified index teeth. In epidemiological surveys for adults, aged 20 years or more, only tent teeth, known as the Index Teeth are examined. These teeth have been identified as the best estimators of the worst periodontal condition of the mouth. The specified index teeth are: 17 47 16 46 11 31 26 36 27 37

17 - Maxillary Right Second Molar 16 - Maxillary Right First Molar 11 - Maxillary Right Central Incisor 26 - Maxillary Left First Molar 27 - Maxillary Left Second Molar 37 - Mandibular Left Second Molar 36 - Mandibular Left First Molar 31 - Mandibular Left Central Incisor 46 - Mandibular Right First Molar 47 Mandibular Right Second Molar The molar are examined in pairs and only one score, the highest is recorded. Only one score is recorded for each sextant. For young people upto 19 ears only six Index Teeth are examined. The second molars are excluded as Index Teeth at these ages because of the high frequency of false (noninflammatory, associated with tooth eruption) pockets. The six Index Teeth selected are:

For scoring and monitoring purposes in dental practice all teeth in a sextant are examined for adults over age 19 years. Only one score, the highest is recorded for each sextant. When examining children less than 15 years pockets are not recorded although probing for bleeding and calculus are carried out as a routine. For use in a clinical setting, all teeth are examined per sextant and the CPITN recording is based on the worst finding from all teeth in that sextant. This method is also suitable for adult populations with a history of high caries prevalence and extensive restorative treatment (Ainamo, Barmes, Beagrie, Cutress, Martin and Sardo-Infirri, 1982). In contrast, research states that full mouth examination based on sextant that full mouth examination based on sextant has little advantage over partial examination of the index teeth for age groups up to 20 years (Ainamo, Barmes, Beagrie, Cutress, Martin and Sardo-Infirri, 1982). The following box chart is recommended as the epidemiological and dental office chart for recording CPITN data
