i was at the dentist a couple weeks ago, and the assistant who cleaned my teeth said i was rated 3 in the front of my mouth and 4 in the back of my mouth for gum disease and gingervitis.
is there a rating chart out of 5 or out of 10 that is used when checking your gums for healthiness? i wish i would’ve thought to ask her if my score was out of 5 or 10.
A google search will give you more detail, but basically, the number is the millimeter depth of your gums. A 1 indicates 1mm of depth witch is ideal. 2 to 3mm is iffy, and 4 to 5 indicates a lot of gum depth and potential gum disease.
I realize that after some months using Commission Blueprint 2 that it was and still is the best IM product I have ever purchased without any doubts.
To this day the guys who created it are still sharing new tools with us purchasers that is shooting our sites into the top ten of Google with somewhat of great ease. If you want to read more about my use of this tool, visit Commission Blueprint 2 Review here.
Lower numbers in front is typical because your back teeth do more powerful compression. But, good oral hygiene will prevent pockets from getting too deep. Floss daily and brush often.
