Oral Hygiene Index -
(Greene and Vermillion, 1960)
Each segment is examined for debris or calculus. From each segment one
tooth is used for calculating the individual index, for that particular segment.
The tooth used for the calculation must have the greatest area covered by
either debris or calculus.
The method for scoring calculus is the same as that applied to debris, but
additional provisions are made for recording subgingival deposits.
1 Soft debris covering not more than one third of the tooth
surface, or presence of extrinsic stains without other debris
regardless of surface area covered
2 Soft debris covering more than one third, but not more than
two thirds, of the exposed tooth surface.
3 Soft debris covering more than two thirds of the exposed tooth
surface.
Score Criteria
s
0 No calculus present
2 Supragingival calculus covering more than one third but not more
than two thirds of the exposed tooth surface or the presence of
individual flecks of subgingival calculus around the cervical portion
of the tooth or both.
The following example shows how to calculate the indices. The scores for
debris and calculus should be tabulated separately and indexes for each
calculated independently, but in the same manner.
Debris
Right Anterior Left Total
Uppe 3 1 2 2 3 1 8 4
r
Lowe 2 2 1 1 1 2 4 5
r
Total 5 3 3 3 4 3 12 9
Debris Index = (The total of the upper and lower buccal-scores) + (The total
of the upper and lower lingual-scores) /(The number of segments scored).
Calculus
Right Anterior Left Totals
Lowe 0 1 0 2 0 2 0 5
r
Total 1 1 0 2 1 2 2 5
The average individual or group debris and calculus scores are combined to
obtain Oral Hygiene Index, as follows.
