This question is taken from 2004 Canadian EE exam. It is pretty easy but when I saw the 2006 paper I got a bit confused.
Which of the following is/are clinical signs of gingivitis?
a) loss of stippling
b) gingival hyperplasia
c) bleeding on probing
d) increasing probing depth
1) a,b,c
2) a and c
3) b and d
4) d only
5) all of above
I was gonna go with E but then i saw this question with a small change

c) decreased pocket depth
d) bleeding on probing

4) d only
5) all of above
Now im a bit confused. The only answer can be all of the above because "a" and "d" are definately true. But how can gingivitis decrease pocket depth? I would assume it increases probing depth because of the increase swelling/size. What do you guys think?
