Gingivitis and periodontitis
I am no expert in perio, but I think I have a general grasp adequate for most of my patients. I was a bit disappointed with the new classification as it makes my graphics for the public incorrect. But the graphics indicate to the public their gum health. It will take seconds for those who understand the new periodontal classification to modify the score to a graphic your patient may understand.
I can't give advice, but these are my main resources.

I have seen a few lectures by Iain in person and, more recently, online.
I have tried to follow his advice in the videos I have made. The videos in the App are for the public. His recent videos explaining the links between general health and oral health are excellent, but I didn't fully understand them.
I don't think I was alone. He is one of the best lecturers I have ever seen.
He managed to make perio interesting.
