What do we call the inflammation of the gingiva ?
gingivitis
What are the classifcation of the gingival diseases ? (2)
1) Plaque induced gingival diseases
2) Non-plaque induced gingival diseases
Describe the healthy gingiva . (3)
1) it's free of inflammation
2) Has not been altered by disease
3) has not been altered by tramua
Define "periodontal disease " .
"it's a borad term used to refer to BACTERIAL infection of the peridontium "
Periodontal diseases are classified into 2 main categories name them
1) Gingivits ( plaque and non-plaque )
2) Peridontits
The bacterial infcetion in the gingivits disease are confiined to the ...
gingiva only
the damage to the tissues in gingivits is ...
reversible
List the 7 charctristics of gingivitis
1) Red or bluish red tissue
2) swollen and rounded margins
3) bulbous or swollowen papillae
4) bleeding upon gentle probing
5) probing depth might be >3 mm becasue of ? SWELLING
6) No apical migration to JE (important )
7) NO BONE LOSS
What does the plaque biofilm does during gingivits ?
plaque biofilm at the gingival margin STIMULATES the host immune response
and how will these inflmmatory changes reflect ?
they will show CLINICAL changes which invloves :
1) free gingiva
2) attached gingiva
3) papilla
What's the localiazed gingivits ?
"it's confined to tissue of a single tooth or a group of teeth "
what's generalized gingivtis ?
" it's occurring in all or MOST of the mouth "
List the 3 type of inflammation DISTRBUTION
1) Papillary : inflammation is confined to the papilla

2) Marginal : Inflammation is confined to the gingival margin and papilla

3)Diffuse : Inflmmation is throught the gingival margain , papila , and attached gingiva --> extending to the mucogingival junction
List the four types of dental plaque-induced gingivits
1) gingivits assoictated with dental plaque ONLY

2) gingival disease modified by systemtic factors

3) gingival diseases modified by medications

4) gingival diseases modifed by malnutrtion
list the two types of "gingivits assoicated with only dental plaque "
1) without other local factors
2) with local contributing factors
What's the most common form of gingivits ?
it's the plaque-induced gingival diseases
where's the location of plaque in the plaque induced gingivits NON-modfying factors ?
it's at the gingival margin
what are general charctrsitcs shown in plaque induced gingivits NON-modfying factors?
1)redness
2) Tenderness
3) Swolloen margins
4) Bleeding on probing
List the three main categories for the plaque-induced gingiveits WITH modfying factors
1)Systemtic Factors

2) Medications

3) Malnutrtion
in plaque-induced gingivitis with modyfing factors , who intiates the disease ?
the plaque , THEN the specific systmtatic factors found in the host modify the disease procrss
List the two types of gingival disease assoisted with systemtic conditons
1)Assosited with endocrine system

2) associated with blood diseases
list the four types of endocrine problems assosited with the gingivits releated to systemtic facros
1)puberty assosictaed gingivts

2) menstrual cycle assoicated gingivits

3) pregrancy assoicted A) Gingivits B) Pyogneic granuolma

4) D.M assoisted gingivits
Talk about pygogenic granuloma
1) it is a muchroom-like growth

2) it is more common in the maxialla and in the ginigval paplilla

3) growths are not cancerous

4) growth are usually not painful

5) theres is an exaggerated respone to an irration

6) growth bleeds easily if disturbed

7) growth usually REGRESS after giving birth
Talk about gingival diseased modifed by medictions
1) druge influnecd gingivtis : an exaggerated inflmmatroy respoonse to dental plaque and a systemtic medictons

2) an increase in size of the gingiva resulting from systemtic medctions
name the medictions that are most commonly associated with gingival enlargment (3)
1)Antioconvuslants

2) Calcium channel blockers

3) Immunosuppressants
is plaque necssary for the inatiaion of the GINGIVAL ENLRAGMENT in gingival diseased reletaed to medctions ?
No it's not nesserey but it will exacerbate the gingival disease
will the meticuouls plaque control elemiante the gingival OVERGROWTH ( ENLRAGMENT ?)
NO
Talk about gingival enlramgnet
1) onset within 3 months of taking medictions

2) exaggerated respone to plaque

3) higher prevelance in children

4)gingiva on anterior sexants most commonly affected

5) enlargment first observed at the intedetnal papila
Talk about ascorbic acid-deficincy gingivits diseases releated to malnutrtuion
an inflmmatroy response to dental plaque aggavated by chronically low ascrobic acid ( vitm C ) levels
what are the signs of ascorbic acid deficny gingivits ?
1) bright red

2) Swollen

3) Ulcerated

4) Bleed easily
list the 4 characteristics that are common among all the gingival diseases
1) signs and symptomps are confied to the gingiva

2) the precense of dental plaque to intaite and /or excterbate the severitey of the lesion

3) clincally signs of inlmmation like :
-enlarged gingival contour
