Public Health DentistrySigurd Ramfjord introduced the Periodontal Disease Index a clinical tool that used a periodontal probe , with marks at 3, 6 and 8 mm, to measure the distance from the cemento–enamel junction to the bottom of the pocket (i.e. attachment loss) Ramfjord recommended the assessment of six ‘index teeth’ that soon became known as the ‘Ramfjord teeth’ These teeth were: maxillary right first molar (tooth 16), maxillary left central incisor (tooth 11), maxillary left first bicuspid (tooth 24), mandibular left first molar (tooth 36), mandibular right central incisor (tooth 41) and mandibular right first bicuspid (tooth 44).

A SNA angle of 105° is significantly higher than the normal range (typically 80°-82°), indicating a severe skeletal Class II malocclusion, specifically due to a protruded maxilla (maxillary prognathism). Such a severe skeletal discrepancy in a 12-year-old generally requires comprehensive orthodontic treatment, often involving growth modification or, in some cases, surgical intervention after growth is complete.

Compomers are indeed known as Polyacrylic acid Modified Composite Resins (PMCRs). They are characterized by their ease of placement, minimal shrinkage, and ability to be shaped and polished after curing. These properties make them a popular choice for dentists due to their user-friendliness and good handling characteristics.
