ch 14
gingival diseases |
a category of perio diseases that usually involve inflammation of the gingival tissues, most often in response to biofilm |

|
acute gingivitis |
gingivitis of a short duration, after which professional care and patient self-care return the gingiva to a healthy state |
|
|
chronic gingivitis |
long lasting gingivitis |
|
|
pregnancy-associated pyogenic granuloma |

ch 15
chronic periodontitis |
bacterial infection of the periodontium resulting in floatation within the supporting tissues of the teeth |
|
|
clinical attachment loss |
an estimate of the extent that the tooth-supporting structures have been destroyed around a tooth |
|
|
peri-implantitis |
chronic periodontitis in the tissues surrounding an osseointegrated dental implants, resulting in loss of alveolar bone |
|
|
extent |
degree or amount of perio destruction; can be characterized based on the number of sites that have experienced tissue destruction |
|
|
localized chronic periodontitis |
chronic periodontitis in which 30% or less of the sites in the mouth have experienced attachment loss and bone loss |
|
|
generalized chronic periodontitis |
chronic periodontitis in which more than 30% of sites in the mouth have experienced attachment loss |
|
|
disease progression |
change or advancement of periodontal destruction |
|
|
severity |
the seriousness of perio tissue destruction as determined by the rate of disease progression over time and the response of tissue to treatment |
|
|
recurrent disease |
periodontitis that reappears after perio therapy (whether poor treatment plan or home care) |
|
|
refractory disease |
destructive periodontitis in a patient who exhibits additional attachment loss at one or more sites, despite tx plan and home care |
|
|
refractory periodontitis |
resistant to control even with what appears to be appropriate therapy |
|
|
ch 16
Aggressive periodontitis (AgP) |
bacterial infection of the periodontium characterized by a rapid destruction of the PDL, rapid loss of bone, high risk for tooth loss and poor response to perio therapy |
|
|
episodic disease progression localized aggressive periodontitis generalized "" |
