INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

  1. Using the White probe first, insert it in the gingival sulcus with < 30 g of pressure. If the color is visible, meaning if you can see the color through the gingival tissue, the biotype is thin.
  2. If the white is not visible use the Green probe in the same manner. If the color is visible the biotype can be classified as medium thickness.
  3. If the Green is not visible through the gingival tissue, use the Blue probe. If blue is the only color visible through the gingival tissue, the biotype is thick. If the blue is also not visible, the gingival tissue can be classified as very thick.
