650-1000

Dysbiosis

Shift from beneficial organisms and or a increase in pathogens

Innocuous

Less resistant to antibiotics

Gram negative bacteria

Double cell membrane


Stain red


Endotoxins


Outermembrane


Produce endotoxins


Low resistance to physical disruption


More resistance to antibiotics

Exotoxins

Are proteins that produced inside of pathogenic bacteria most commonly gram postive

Endotoxins

Are the lipid portion of lippolysaccharides that are part of the outer membrane of the cell wall of gram negative bacteria.

Biofilms

Complex community


Begin to form supragingival


Can exist on any surface exposed to bacteria containing fluid


Free floating


Attached to the surface or another bacteria


Estimated that 65% of biofilm-induced

Biofilm induced diseases

Tuberculosis


Cystic Fibrosis


Subacute bacterial endocarditis


Periodontal disease

Biofilm in health

Maintain a harmonious balance


Mutual beneficial relationship between the host and the bacteria


No one strain dominates

Biofilm in health

Maintain a harmonious balance


Mutual beneficial relationship between the host and the bacteria


No one strain dominates

In disease

Microbial imbalance


Certain microbial species become dominant


Live in disharmony or dysbiosis


Can manifest in gingivitis and lead to excessive immune response

Quiescence

Hibernation hibernating bacteria is unaffected by bacteria.

Progression of bacteria

Free floating bacteria attach to surface in minutes


2-4 hours microbes form microcolonies


6-12 hr microbes produce protective matrix and become resistant to antiseptics and antibiotics


2-4 days fully mature biofilm colonies can be rapidly recover from mechanical disruption in 24 hr reform is seen

Attachment of biofilm tooth related

From gingival margin to base of the sulcus


Have ability to invade dental tubules cocci and rods


Stretocussus miitis S. Sangria


Actinomyces viscosis

Attachment of biofilm tissue associated

Can invade connective tissue and alveolar bone.


Most detrimental to periodontal tissue.


Must be removed surgically.


Contains a large number of spirochetes and flegellated bacteria, gram - cocchi and rods

Curtage

Removal of tissue

Types of bacteria that affect tissue

Streptococcus oralis.


S. intermedius.


Porphyomonad gingivalis.


Preventella intermedia.


Tannerella forsythia.


Fusobacterium nucleatum

Free floating unattached bacteria

Free swimming in pocket not a biofilm


More virulent


Gram- mobile anarobes


Removed by flushing


Not considered biofilm it just lives in the same environment

Acquired pellicle

Film composed of salivary glycoprotein and antibodies


Form within minutes of cleaning surface


Protects enamel from acid


Alters charge of tooth that allows for


Or bacterial adhesion


Life cycle of biofilm

Bacteria attach to acquired follicle early colonizers.


2. Additional bacteria colonize.


3. Attached bacteria release extracellular slime layer to attach to a surface and protect it.


4. Bacteria grow and multiply by cell division complex groups of micro colonies that communicate with others.


5. Clumps break off and are carried away can reattach to other surfaces.

Coaggregation

Is a process by which genetically distinct bacteria become attached to one another via specific molecules

Bacteria microcolonies

Environmental conditions vary


Each species prefers a certain environment. Diversity aids in survival

Extracellular slime layer

Proctects the microcolonies from antibiotics


Antimicrobials and immune system

Leukocytes

Defense cells from the immune system. May he blocked by slim layer

Fluid force

Influence shape of biofilm and spacing inside bacteria. Causes extension that break off and spread more quickly

Fluid channels

Penetrate the extracellular slime layer. Provide nutrients and oxygen carry waste products away

Quorum sensing

Chemical cell communication via releasing of proteins


3 types of cell communication

Quorum sensing


Adhesion of bacteria in slime layer


Transfer of genes.

Periodontitis

100,000-100,000,000 bacteria


74% gram negative rods


Varies greatly patient to patient


Site to site.

Papillary

Involving interdental papullae only


Marginal

Involving the gingival margin

Diffuse

Involving the gingival margin,papillary, and attached gingiva

Periodontal disease

Suspetible host


Integrity of the mucosa and periodontist must be compromised.


Immune system plays a larger role then bacteria


Defenses against perio

Saliva-buffers


Gingival crevicular fluid- constant flow/ cleanses sulcus.


Oral epithelium- creates a barrier

Perio disease

Environment just right


Pockets conductive to colonization


Deeper pockets


Larger number of pathogenic bacteria.


Oral temperature is perfect


Tongue holds bacteria

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

Strongly associated with aggressive perio.
