Notes
[1]: overall mean is for the combined mesio-, mid-, and disto-facial plus the mesio-, mid-, and disto-lingual periodontal sites
[2]: overall mean is for the combined mesio-, mid-, and disto-facial periodontal sites (NHANES 2003–04 examined sites)
[#]: Number of paired observations
[n]: Number of replicate exams
[#]: Dental examiner
[AL]: Attachment loss
[PD]: Pocket depth
[3 sites]: Based on partial-mouth design used in earlier NHANES
