| Dean's fluorosis index | An index that measures the degree of mottled enamel (fluorosis) in teeth; used most often in epidemiological field studies. (05 Mar 2000) |

| superior facial index | The length of the face is measured from the nasion to the alveolar point: (nasialveolar length × 100)/bizygomatic width; for (05 Mar 2000) |
| def caries index | An index of past caries experience based upon the number of decayed, extracted, and filled deciduous (indicated by lower case letters) or permanent (indicated by capital letters) teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| degenerative index | The percentage of granulocytes that contain toxic granules in the cytoplasm, as compared with the total percentage of granulocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dental index | Relation of the dental length (distance from the mesial surface of the first premolar to the distal surface of the third molar) to the basinasal (basion to nasion) length: (dental length ×100)/basinasal length, a system of numbers for indicating comparative size of the teeth. Synonym: Flower's dental index. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dental plaque index | An index which scores the degree of dental plaque accumulation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| df caries index | An index of past caries experience based upon the number of decayed and filled deciduous (indicated by lower case letters) or permanent (indicated by capital letters) teeth. Synonym: df, DF. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diversity index | <ecology> The relationship of the number of taxa (richness) to the number of individuals per taxon (abundance) for a given community. (09 Oct 1997) |
| dmf index | "decayed, missing and filled teeth," a routinely used statistical concept in dentistry. (12 Dec 1998) |
| dmfs caries index | An index of past caries experience based upon the number of decayed, missing, and filled surfaces of deciduous (indicated by lower case letters) or permanent (indicated by capital letters) teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| icterus index | The value that indicates the relative level of bilirubin in serum or plasma; calculated by comparing (in a colourimeter) the intensity of the colour of the specimen with that of a standard solution (potassium dichromate, 0.05 g, in 500 ml of water, plus 0.2 ml of sulfuric acid); the normal range is 3 to 5, and values greater than 15 are usually associated with clinically apparent jaundice; an index less than 3 is observed in various examples of secondary anaemia, aplastic anaemia, and chlorosis. Sometimes erroneously called icteric index: it is an index of jaundice, not a jaundiced index. (05 Mar 2000) |
| invasion index | An index devised by Abercrombie & Heaysman as a means to estimate the invasiveness of cells in vitro. The index is derived from measurements on confronted explants of the cells and embryonic chick heart fibroblasts growing in tissue culture: it is the ratio of the estimated movement, had the cells not been hindered and the actual movement in the zone in which collision occurs. (18 Nov 1997) |
| iron index | An obsolete index of iron obtained by dividing the figure for the average content of iron in normal blood (42.74 mg) by the red cell count in millions; it normally varies between 8 and 9; in pernicious anaemia, the index is usually greater than 10, but it tends to be normal in chronic secondary anaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| obesity index | Body weight divided by body volume. (05 Mar 2000) |
| opsonic index | A value that indicates the relative content of opsonin in the blood of a person with an infectious disease, as evaluated in vitro in comparison with presumably normal blood; the opsonic index is calculated from the following equation: phagocytic index of normal serum ÷ phagocytic index of test serum = 1 ÷ x, where x represents the opsonic index.
