What is Dentinal Sclerosis?
|
Protective dentin response. Can be physiologic (aging), or pathological (caries, crystals form..)
|
|
Acute Pulpitis
|
High virulent bacteria
Abscess Formation Non-sclerosed dentinal tubules (no reactive-protective dentin response) |
|
Chronic Pulpitis
|
Lower virulence bacteria
Slow progression thru sclerosed/calcified tubules Fibroblasts present, necrotic pulp |
|
Reversible Pulpitis
|
Pain with cold, short duration, localized pain.
Removal of stimulus --> heals |
|
Irreversible Pulpitis
|
Pain with hot, long duration, harder to localize
|
|
What types of necrosis will you see in pulpal necrosis?
|
Abscess = liquefactive
If blood supply problem / trauma / hypoxia = Coagulative Widespread bacteria/N-waste = Gangrenous (smelly) |
|
Periapical Abscess
|
Purulent exudate at apex of nonvital tooth.
Sensitive to percussion (elevated tooth) Tx: incise and drain. A-b's if severe. |
|
Parulis
|
Un-tx abscess draining into gingiva
|
|
Ludwig's Angina
|
Un-tx abscess draining into floor of mouth
|
|
Periapical Granuloma
|
Misnomer! Not true granuloma
ASYMPTOMATIC See granulation tissue, no EPT response, radioluscent. Tx: RCT and/or ext |
|
Periapical (Radicular) Cyst
|
Apex of non-vital tooth
Asymptomatic No EPT response Similar to periapical granuloma...tx is the same..(endo/ext) |
|
Phoenix Abscess
|
Abscess within periapical granuloma, due to CHANGE IN FLORA
- immune compromised / etc |
|
Osteomyelitis
|
Inflammation of bone, very destructive.
From fracture / tooth infection Mandible and Men more frequent Lots of predisposing factors... |
|
Acute Osteomyelitis
|
Rapid spread of periapical abscess
Very painful Histo: no osteocytes. Dead bone (sequestrum) tx: high high dose antibiotics |
|
Chronic Osteomyelitis
|
From acute or de novo
Pain, but less intense and severe than acute Will see fibrotic tissue mixed into sequestrum |
|
Condensing osteitis (Focal sclerosing osteomyelitis)
|
Formation of NEW BONE at the apex.
Kids more often Cause: low-grade infection of pulp Tx: endo or exo (?) bone WILL have osteocytes! |
|
Tooth Fusion
|
Tooth count is one less.
Ex: #2 and 3 merge into one tooth Dx: must count all the teeth |
|
Tooth Gemination
|
Teeth still fused, but normal tooth count. (ex: two "parts" of a tooth coming together and fusing to form one)
Dx: must count all the teeth |
|
Microdontia
|
Pegged teeth
Down's syndrome common |
|
Mesiodens
|
miniature tooth found in midline
|
|
Dens invaginatus (dens in dente)
|
tooth in a tooth
lateral most common |
|
Dilaceration
|
root takes a different direction
Can be developmental OR TRAUMA during dev Difficult to extract |
|
Taurodontism
|
neck/cervical elongated
"bull teeth" |
|
Hypercementosis
|
Excess cementum production
Associated with paget's disease. Teeth are okay. |
|
Concrescence
|
Root fusion between adjacent teeth. If ext one, the other must go also
|
|
Enamel Hypoplasia
|
Enamel has little pits in places.
Conditions: mother has virus, early onset chicken pox, measles Chronic: will get tertiary dentin |
|
Attrition
|
grinding//bruxism on occlusal surface
Chronic: will get tertiary dentin |
|
Abrasion
|
acid..chewing on weird stuff...
Chronic: will get tertiary dentin **this definition sucks** |
|
Erosion
|
from acid accumulation. Bulimia.
Chronic: will get tertiary dentin |
|
Ectodermal Dysplasia
|
Form of hypodontia
Reduced ectoderm. (hair fragile/lack sweat glands) |
|
Hereditary Oligodontia
|
Form of hypodontia
Heterogenous (multiple causes) Will transmit to offspring no matter what |
|
Cleidocranial dysplasia
|
Form of hyperdontia
Missing clavicles |
|
Familia adenomatous polyposis "FAP"
|
Form of hyperdontia
Prone to cancer also. |
|
Amelogenesis Imperfecta
|
heterogenous (dom/rec/X-link)
Hypoplastic (production defect) Hypomaturation (produce normal, bad mature) Hypocalcified (produce normal, bad calc) AMELX / FAM83H... Teeth do not bond well!!! Will need full-coverage |
|
Dentinogenesis Imperfecta
|
Type 1: OI assoc.
Type 2: DSPP mutation only Yellow/orange color Bulbous crowns, cerv constriction Obliterated pulp chambers (dentin overgrowth) |
|
Dentin Dysplasia Type 1
|
DSPP gene
Radicular dentin screwed "Rootless teeth" Pulps obliterated |
|
Dentin dysplasia Type 2
|
similar to DI
DSPP gene Coronal Dentin |
|
Hypophosphatasia
|
alkaline phosphatase defect, needed for bone metab
phosphoethanolamine in urine no or little CEMENTUM Large canal/pulp, PDL screwed ALPL / DLX3 gene defects |
|
Hyperbilirubinemia / Fluorosis / Tetracycline
|
Bilirubin --> green teeth
Fluorosis --> doesn't weaken tooth Tetracycline --> yellow/red |
|
Porphyria
|
genetic, weird stuff gets incorporated into dev teeth that shouldn't, weakens and browns them
|
|
Regional Odontodysplasia
|
1-3 neighboring teeth abnormal
ghost teeth, thin enamel large pulp canal possible bv supply prob during dev if in adult dentition, must have had in primary |
