|
Usually fairly innocuous. Grow in response to chronic irritation. Reach mysterious, predetermined size. Then stop growing. Often must be surgically removed.
|
Oral Proliferations
|
|
|
Occurs because of rubbing of loose appliance. Spongy, primarily fibrous in nature. Often pink, may show evidence of inflammatory redness. Tx requires irritant be removed. Remove ill fitting appliance, allow tissue to heal, replace with fitting appliance.
|
Papillary Hyperplasia
|
|
|
Related to papillary hyperplasia. These are larger hyperplastic folds found in the buccal vestibules of either arch. Sometimes found on the lingual side of the mandibular ridge.
|
Epulis Fissuratum
|
|
|
Procardia, Cyclosporinn-A, Dilantin cause enlarged gingival.
|
Drug Induced Hyperplasia
|
|
|
TRUE or FALSE:
Drug Induced Hyperplasia will come even if pt. practices good OH. |
True
|
|
|
TRUE or FALSE:
Drug Induced Hyperplasia will grow much slower with good OH. |
True
|
|
|
This hyperplasia does NOT have a self limiting size.
|
Drug Induced Hyperplasia
|
|
|
TRUE or FALSE:
Drug Induced Hyperplasia often must be surgically removed. |
True
|
|
|
Round, raised, fibrous lesion wherever oral tissue likely to be traumatized. Long standing lesion.
|
Traumatic Fibroma (Fibrous Hyperplasia)
|
|
|
TRUE or FALSE:
Traumatic Fibroma is painless, with normal color and texture. |
True
|
|
|
Tramatic fibroma on gingiva, caused by subgingival calculus. Both lesion and calculus should be removed.
|
Peripheral Fibroma (Fibroid Epulis)
|
|
|
Fibroma which has converted significant of its fribrous connective tissue into bone.
|
Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma
|
|
|
TRUE or FALSE
Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma looks like a fibroma, but is very hard. |
True
|
|
|
Prolonged attempts by the body to heal. Can get highly vascular, fibrous overgrowth. Red glossy swelling that bleeds profusly. When etiology is not removed, would continues to make granulation tissue.
|
Pyogenic Granuloma (Pregnancy Tumor)
(Epulis Granulomatosa-associated with foreign body) |
|
|
More aggresive gingival growth. Tru tumor. Starts as response to irritation or injury. Often purplish.
|
Peripheral Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma
|
|
|
TRUE or FALSE
A Peripheral Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma will push adjacent teeth apart and destroy alveolar crest bone via "peripheral cuffing" |
TRUE
|
|
|
Calcification in pulp. Seen on x-ray in pulp chamber, most frequently in max. molars.
|
Pulp Stones
|
|
|
Extra deposition of cementum at apex of tooth. Idiopathic but can be encouraged by super eruption, periapical inflammation, tramatic occlusion, Paget's disease, toxic goiter, and hyperpituitary problems. Only clinical problem is when extracted.
|
Hypercementosis
|
|
|
Overgrowth of lots of young vascular, fibrous, granulation tissue.
|
Granuloma proliferation and histological changes.
|
|
|
Keratin is dead in cell wall layer of stratified squamous epithelium. It is build up of the keratin, manifested as a white area. Thickness usually makes rough texture.
|
Hyperkeratosis
|
|
|
What kind of condition is Hyperkeratosis?
|
A chronic irritation condition
|
|
|
What is the treatment for Hyperkeratosis?
|
To remove the irritant.
|
|
|
irregular shapes or improper cel maturation. Potential premalignant condition.
|
Dyskeratosis
|
|
|
Change in fragile epithelium of the vermillion border, particular lower lip. Lip becomes pale. Lip loses characteristic marking and is more uniform. Can get crusting and hyperkeratosis, then ulceration.
|
Actinic Solar Chelitis
|
|
|
What can Actinic Solar Chelitis lead to?
|
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
|
