Abstract: The disclosure provides for a method for determining the stage of a periodontal disease by using as an index the amount of occult blood, and the number of white blood cells or a total protein concentration in the examination object obtained from the oral cavity.

Abstract: A test result sheet creation device is provided with: a display unit which displays a test result of a saliva test, and a plurality of comment candidates corresponding to the test result; an input unit which accepts an input of the result of selection from the plurality of comment candidates; and a control unit which associates and stores, in a storage unit, at least one test result and a comment selected from the comment candidates, and creates a test result sheet including the at least one test result and the comment selected from the comment candidates.

Abstract: A dental-plaque detection system and dental-plaque detection method which are excellent in the detection accuracy of dental plaques and also capable of improving the situation to stain sites other than dental plaques (such as interdental parts and gums) are provided. The dental-plaque detection system includes a dental-plaque staining agent, which contains at least one selected from yellow pigment of beni-koji, turmeric extracts, and curcumin; and a light-emitting apparatus, which outputs light having a wavelength within a range of 250 to 500 nm to an object in the oral cavity where the dental-plaque staining agent is attached. The dental-plaque detection method includes attaching a dental-plaque staining agent, which contains at least one selected from yellow pigment of beni-koji, turmeric extracts, and curcumin onto an object in the oral cavity; and thereafter irradiating light having a wavelength within a range of 250 to 500 nm onto the object.
