COMPUTERIZED PERIODONTAL EVALUATION SYSTEM
The constant force allows measurements to be standardized between operators. Treatment can begin in the earliest stages of disease, often preventing early bone loss and possible surgery. The system can record the main parameters of a periodontal exam, including recession, pocket depth, bleeding, suppuration, furcation involvement, mobility and plaque assessment. The pocket depth and bleeding sites are called out automatically by the user's choice of either a female voice or sound effects from the computer, not by the operator. The patient thereby hears the results from the computer and visually witnesses the exam on a color monitor with color-coded digital readouts - green, black and red - to identify the risk stages of disease. As such, the system is described as an excellent educational tool.
 The system also generates a four page color printout of documentation to provide detailed records for insurance filing and patient records. Printouts are color-coded to indicate at risk pockets that are more than 3.2mm in depth. Constant force and accuracy recorded in 0.2mm increments makes the Florida Probe superior to other charting systems.
