BIOLOGY Flashcards
Gingiva covering of the hard palate
Masticatory mucosa
It covers the dorsum of the tongue
Specialized mucosa
What type of lingual papilla has no taste buds
Filiform
Covers the alveolar process of the jaw
Gingiva
5 cardinal signs
Rubor
Tumor
Dolor
Calor
Function laesa
Demarcated from the adjacent attached gingiva by a shallow linear depression
Free gingival groove
A shallow crevice ore spare around the tooth
Gingival sulcus
What part of periodontium is not exist with the pristine condition
Gingival sulcus
What part of peiodontium is greatest at the incisor area
Attached gingiva
Attached gingiva is ——- epith
Keratinized
Alveolar mucosa is ——— epith
Non keratinized
How recession is made
If attached gingiva is absent then the food can cause friction
Interdental papilla looks like when healthy and not
Healthy- edge knife or pointed
Inflamed- blunt
Valley like depression and It conforms the shape of interproximal contact
Col (non keratinized)
Common sign of gingival disease
Loss of stippling
Charateristics of healthy gingiva in terms of color, interdental papilla, marginal gingiva, texture, consistency and bleeding upon probing
Color coral pink
Interdental papilla- pointed
Marginal gingiva- knife edge
Texture- presence of stippling
Consistency- firm
BOP- absent
Charateristics of inflamed in terms of color, interdental papilla, marginal gingiva, texture, consistency and bleeding upon probing
Color- erythematous
Interdental papilla- blunt
Marginal gingiva- rolled
Texture- absence of stippling
Consistency spongy
BOP- present
A wavy pattern that dictate if the patient will have stippling or not located in oral epith
Rete pegs
Rete pegs are lack of?
Junctional epith and oral sulcular epith
Oral epith is lined by
Keratinized stratified epith with rete pegs
Absence of nuclei and has?
Orthokeratinized and has stratum corneum and granulosum
Has pyknotic nuclei and has?
Parakeratnized and has stratum corneum and no stratum granulosum
Superficial cells has visible nuclei has?
Non keratinized and has no stratum corneum and granulosum
What type pf collagen is in the lamina densa
Type 4
Composed of glyco protein laminin
Lamina lucida
Involved in the attachment of epith
Hemidesmosomes
Collagen in basal lamina
Type 4
Collagen in PDL
Type 1
Consist of loose connective tissue within connective tissue papillae
Lamina propria
Antigen presenting cells for lymphocytes or defense mechanism
Langerhans cells
Identified as tactile receptors
Merkel cells
