This study revealed a clear discrepancy in the prevalence of periodontitis between the AAP/EFP and the CDC/AAP classification when using epidemiological data. The 2017 AAP/EFP classification system performs well when compared to the CDC/AAP case definition in identifying adolescents with periodontitis. The AAP/EFP system seems less accurate in adults with high prevalence of periodontitis.
