FAQ
How many sites are recorded per tooth?

Is this periodontal charting tool really free, with no sign-up?
Yes. The full periodontal chart, including printing current findings or a blank template, works entirely in your browser with no account, download, or payment required.
What is a normal periodontal probing depth?
Probing depths of 1–3 mm with no bleeding on probing are generally considered within a healthy range. Deeper readings, bleeding, or an irregular pattern across sites can point to inflammation or attachment loss, but probing depth is only one part of the picture — a dental professional should always interpret findings alongside the rest of the clinical examination.
What's the difference between a periodontal chart and an odontogram?
A periodontal chart measures probing depth, recession, bleeding, mobility, and furcation around the gums and bone that support each tooth. An odontogram is a broader tooth-by-tooth map showing cavities, fillings, crowns, and missing teeth — many practices keep both records because they capture different things.
