Question 1 of 28👑 VIP
A 58-year-old client presents for a comprehensive assessment. During probing, you record the following pocket depths on tooth #16: mesiobuccal 6 mm, buccal 4 mm, distobuccal 7 mm, mesiolingual 5 mm, lingual 3 mm, distolingual 6 mm. Radiographically, there is evidence of a furcation-level bone defect. On probing with a Nabers probe, you detect a definite horizontal penetration into the furcation but cannot pass through to the other side. How should this furcation involvement be classified, and what is the clinical significance for treatment planning?
