What did my dentist mean by BP?

Q. I went to the dentist today with my daughter (1st time since I was a child for me), and he said something about BP being 0 for my daughter and 2 for me. It didnt appear as though he said it for each tooth as he only said it around 4 times for myself. what does he mean by this? Thanks,
A. Its an index of the health of the gums
