Abstract
The gingiva-bone count was used clinically, with posterior bitewing radiographs and with a full survey of 14 apical radiographs to determine variations in scoring of periodontal disease. Neither type of radiograph produced increases in findings large and standard enough to justify use in largescale epidemiologic surveying.Keywords
