Six teeth are examined and scored for gingivitis, calculus and plaque deposits, mobility, lack of tooth contact, and depth of gingival crevice (mobility and lack of tooth contact may be omitted). The PDI is the total of the scores for each tooth divided by the number of teeth examined: the higher the score, the more severe the periodontal disease.

Scoring of Calculus Calculus is scored on the basis of the following criteria : 0 = absence of calculus 1 = supragingival calculus extending only slightly below the free gingival margin (not more than 1 mm.) 2 = moderate amount of supra and subgingival calculus or subgingival calculus alone 3 = an abundance of supra and subgingival calculus.

The scoring of plaque is done according to the following criteria: 0 = no plaque present 1 = plaque present on some but not on all interproximal buccal and linqual surfaces of the tooth 2 = plaque present on all interproximal, buccal and lingual surfaces, but covering less than one half of these surfaces 3 = plaque extending over all interproximal, buccal and lingual surfaces, and covering more than one half of these surfaces. Only full erupted teeth should be scored and missing teeth should not be substituted.

The gingival status is scored first, with the following definitions of criteria: 0 = absence of signs of inflammation 1 = mild to moderate inflammatory gingival changes, not extending around the tooth 2 = mild to moderately severe gingivitis extending all around the tooth 3 = severe gingivitis characterized by marked redness, swelling, tendency to bleed and ulceration.
