each tooth must be attached by each of the following to remain in the oral cavity?
|
periodontal ligament
fibers of the gingiva alveolar bone junctional epithelium |
|
attaches gingiva to tooth
|
junctional epithelium
|
|
network of fibers that surround the root of tooth. these attach to bone on one side and cementum of root on the other
|
fibers of the gingiva
|
|
surrounds root of teeth, supports and protects the root
|
alveolar bone
|
|
pd can cause?
|
loss of tissue attachment
destruction of alveolar bone |
|
leading cause of tooth loss in adults?
|
PERIO DISEASE
|
|
systemic conditions: links to periodontal disease
|
preterm low birthweight
cardiovascular disease respiratory disease |
|
cause of PD?
|
plaque aka biofilm
|
|
calculus is called what in older patients?
|
tartar`
|
|
contributing factors to PD
|
smoking
osteoporosis hiv/aids diabetes meds (dilantin) poor OH stress |
|
signs of PD (6)
|
red
swollen tender bleeding loose teeth pain or pressure when chewing pus around teeth/gingiva |
|
sulcus that has been deepened by disease?
|
periodontal pocket
|
|
tightly connected to cementum on root, CT that covers alveolar bone
|
attached gingiva
|
|
distance from gingival margin to base of sulcus or periodontal pocket
|
probing depth
|
|
tip touches the tooth near the cej , tissue will blanche and appear white
|
healthy probing depth situation
|
|
probe tip touches root somewhere below the cej bleeding usually occurs
|
unhealthy probe situation
|
|
healthy mouth, most of tooth root is surrounded by bone, crest of bone is located close to crowns, only 1-2 mm apical to CEJ of tooth
|
health case type I
|
|
inflammation of gingiva characterized by:
changes in color, gingival position, surface appearance, bleeding, exudate NO LOSS OF BONE, CREST OF ALVEOLAR BONE IS ONLY 1-2 MM FROM cej |
case type 1: gingival disease gingivitis
|
|
progression of gingival inflammation into deeper perio structures and alveolar bone crest, SLIGHT bone loss, SLIGHT loss of CT attachment to alveolar bone, inflammation is from free gingiva to attached gingiva
|
case type II: early periodontitis
|
|
advanced stage, increased destruction of Perio structures and NOTICEABLE loss of bone support, maybe tooth mobility, inflammation from attached gingiva to mucogingival junction
|
Case type III: moderate Periodontitis
|
|
fruther progression of periodontitis, MAJOR loss of alveolar bone, increased tooth mobility, furcation involvement
|
case type IV: advanced periodontitis
|
|
those with multiple disease sites that continue to demonstrate attachment loss after therapy, sites continue to be infected by perio pathogens no matter the treatment, includes those with recurrent disease at single or multiple sites
|
case type V: refractory periodontitis
|
|
pocket formed by gingival enlargement WITHOUT apical migration of Junctional epithelium, these are always suprabony
|
gingival pocket
|
|
gingival pockets are always infra or supra bony?
|
supra!
|
|
base of pocket is coronal to alveolar bone crest
|
suprabony pocket
|
|
pcoket formed from disease of gingival sulcus where junctional epithelium migrates apically
|
periodontal pocket
|
|
base is below alveolar bone crest
|
infra or intra bony
|
|
inner boundary of pocket?
|
tooth surface
|
|
outer boundary of pocket?
|
sulcular epithelium or pocket epithelium
|
|
where inner and outer walls meet at the base of the pocket? junctional epithelium
|
base boundary
|
|
process of inflammation: (4)
|
1. bacteria makes toxins
2. sulcular epithelium is invaded 3. inflammatory rxn caused by increased blood flow to area 4. may have edema( inflam), exudate, gingival pocket formed from gingival swelling, enlargement |
|
is a gingival pocket reversible?
|
yes,
|
|
if a gingival pocket is continued with bad OH what happens?
|
bacteria will go from gram + to gram -, chronic gingivitis will develop, tissue may bleed or may not
|
|
progression of gingival inflammation depends on: (4)
|
iatrogenic dentistry (caused by clinician)
host defense bacterial plaque (not all gingivitis progresses to perio) systemic factors: meds, med conditions, dilantin, |
|
progressive apical migration occurs due to:
|
pt unable to keep pocket clean, bacteria matures, more loss of attachment, disease continues
|
|
role of calculus and PD: (3)
|
provides home for plaque
provides a surface that can store toxic irritants plaque covers calculus |
