Bacteria- Oral Bacteria B Flashcards
what are dentoalveolar infections
pyogenic infections associated with the teeth and surrounding supporting structures
endodontic infections are _________ that are _____
endogenous infections; opportunistic
what bacteria are cultivated most frequently in root canal infections
-bacteriodes and prevotella
what microbe is found when PCR is used
treponema denticola
what microbe is found in chronic apical infection and failed root canal treatments
enterococcus faecilis
what is the new species associated wth failed root canal treatments
actinomyces radicidentis
what is the presentation of dentoalveolar infections
-abscess localized to tooth that intiated the infection
- diffuse cellulitis which spreads along fascial planes
what are dentoalveolar abscesses caused by
- spread from carious lesion
- tooth fracture/wear
- through periodontal membrane and accessory root canals
- anachoresis during bacterima from extraction at different site
what are the facultative anaerobes isolated from dentoalveolar abscesses
-streptococcus
- actinomyces
what are the obligate anaerobes isolated from dentoalveolar abscesses
- peptostreptococcus
- porphyromas gingivalis
- prevotella
- fusobacterium nucleatum
what is ludwigs angina
a spreading, bilateral infection of the sublingual and submandibular spaces
- cellulitis of the fascial spaces rather than true abscess formation
what is the mixed endogenous infection of ludwigs angina
- porphyromonas
- prevotella
- fusobacterium
-anaerobic streptococci
what is a result of ludwigs angina
airway obstruction- death by asphyyxiation
what is a periodontal abscess
localized collection of pus caused by acute or chronic destruction of periodontium
- endogenous, subgingival plaque bacteria
what microbes cause periodontal abscesses
-porphyromonas
- prevotella
- fusobacteria
- anaerobic streptococci
what organisms cause supprative osteomyelitis of the jaws
-porphyromonas
- prevotella

hutchinsons incisors, mulberry molars
- primary and secondary syphilis lesions
- gummas
what are oral manifestations of tuberculosis
oral lesions in up to 5% of primary and secondary tuberculosis cases
- ulcers on palate and gingiva
what microbe causes bacterial infection of salivary glands
staphylococcus
