The study aimed to investigate the possibilities to use the system expert K-Scoring developed by Prof. Norina Consuela Forna and Neo-Tech, Romania, in the stomatological patients’ evaluation and treatment planning. Materials and method. The study groups included 88 patients treated in the Clinical Base of Dental Medicine Faculty, ”Gr. T. Popa” U.M.Ph. Iasi. The computerized planning and the measurement of clinical-biological indices were performed using PRODENT and K-Scoring Indici (Neo-Tech, România). Results. We found an increasing of the mean value of clinical-biological indices from the primary assessment to the secondary assessment, by values that are related to the clinical indices at the starting point of the treatment and after preparation of the general, loco-regional and local status. For the treated patients, the scoring program offered different values for the prosthetic therapy with different ranges of score with excellent, medium or poor prognosis of the case. Conclusions. The Scoring application is extremely accurate in the possibility to optimize the treatment plan, to help chose the appropriate therapeutic solutions and to make prognosis on short, medium and long term, by analysing the entire clinical-biological indices and scores.
