Name	Time	Method
inear measurement (in millimeters) of the distance between the cementoenamel junction and the alveolar bone crest, measured from the imageJ computer program on interproximal digital radiographs.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Presence or absence of radiographic bone loss on interproximal radiographs. Distances between the cementoenamel junction and the bone crest greater than 2 mm will be considered a periodontal bone loss.
