19
Q

true new attachment

A

reunion of CT with a root surface that has been deprived of its periodontal ligament (may occur without new bone)

20
Q

long junctional epithelium

A

epithelial attachment onto a previously diseased root surface

21
Q

regeneration

A

reproduction of a lost or injured part

22
Q

periodontal regeneration includes what?

A
  1. new cementum
  2. new bone
  3. fxnal collagen fibers (PDL) inserting into a previously diseased root surface
23
Q

primary (first) intention healing

A
  1. close approximation of wound margins

2. minimal granulation

24
Q

secondary intention healing

A

open wound that will heal through formation of granulation tissue

25
Q

epithelium migrates how many mm/day during healing?

A

0.5 mm

26
Q

epithelium covers a wound in how many days?

A

7-10 days

27
Q

epithelium matures in how many days?

A

21-28 days

28
Q

in periodontal regeneration, progenitor cells that differentiate into cementoblasts, osteoblasts and fibroblasts migrate more slowly. at what rate?

A

only 0.1 mm/day

29
Q

more bone resorption occurs over what?

A

thin buccal and lingual root surfaces than interproximately

30
Q

periodontal dressings

A

used to protect surgical area and help in tissue positioning, but may delay healing and favor plaque accumulation

31
Q

splinting

A

accomplish for teeth with secondary occlusal trauma (weakened periodontium) and for patient comfort/fxn of mobile teeth

32
Q

types of splints

A
  1. extracoronal

2. intracoronal

33
Q

extracoronal splints

A
  1. occlusal guard

2. acid-etched Maryland bridge (reversible)

34
Q

intracoronal splints

A
  1. amalgam or acrylic splint with preparation of occlusal surface of adjacent teeth
  2. castings/FPD (irreversible)
35
Q

coronoplasty

A

IRREVERSIBLE occlusal adjustment by selective grinding

36
Q

indications for coronoplasty

A
  1. periodontal occlusal trauma
  2. post-ortho
  3. pre-restoratively
  4. TMD (with caution)
37
Q

when should occlusal adjustments be made?

A

should be done after S/RP because root planing decreases inflammation, therefore mobility

38
Q

objective of occlusal adjustment by selective grinding

A
  1. to minimize lateral (jigging) forces on posterior teeth or weakened teeth - reduce non-working side (balancing) and working-side interferences
  2. to place forces in line with the long axis of teeth
  3. to establish smooth, gliding excursions, usually with canine guidance
39
Q

how are periodontal abscesses managed?

A
  1. I&D

2. abx (amoxicillin)

40
Q

how is nectrotizing ulcerative gingivitis/periodontitis managed?

A
  1. tx’d through ultrasonic debridement, Peridex (chlorhexidine) mouth rinses
  2. abx (metronidazole) used if there is fever, severe pain, lympadenapathy
  3. follow-up appts are needed for continued initial therapy
41
Q

T/F: plaque induced, drug influenced gingival enlargement usually will not resolve completely non-surgically, even if pt is taken off meds

A

true

42
Q

what is usually indicated for pts with plaque induced, drug influenced gingival enlargement?

A

gingivectomy with gingivoplasty

43
Q

what have been shown to have lesser recurrence rates in pts with plaque induced, drug influenced gingival enlargement?

A

internally beveled flaps (internal gingivectomy)

44
Q

in combined endo-perio lesions, what is treated first?

A

RCT before periodontal surgery

45
Q

what is expected after S/RP and resective perio surgery?

A

blunting of interproximal papillae

46
Q

why is periodontal maintenance therapy following tx for perio disease indicated every 3 months?

A

to monitor for new perio disease and intercept pathogenic subgingibal plaque which takes about 3 months to re-establish itself
