Q

To ensure informed consent for tx of discolouration in children

A

Discuss all risks and benefits
Give written information
Discuss with pt and family that it will require maintenance in general practice, at a cost
Child or young person involved or leading, depending on age
Children receiving this tx should be at or nearing age of Gillick competence

Their understanding of the risks, implications and consequences that may arise from their decicion
How well they understand any advice or information that have been given
Their understanding of any alternative options, if available

Q

Why do we polish with fine sandpaper disc after microabrasion?

Polishing changes the optical properties of the enamel so that areas of intrinsic discolouration become less perceptible
Makes it less obvious where the defect was

Q

Tooth sensitivity and bleaching

A

Common in adults 15-65%
Sensitivity is related to the easy passage of hydrogen peroxide through intact enamel and dentine, reaching pulp in 5 to 15 min
Tooth sensitivity considered relatively minor in adolescents than in adults
This sensitivity is usually manageable

Q

Why is sensitivity thought to be less of a problem for adolescent pts than in adults?

A

Could be due to increased enamel quality and quantity of the adolescent teeth and to larger pulp complexes allowing faster recovery from the acute inflammation experienced during a sensitivity episode

Q

Prevention of external cervical resorption when non-vital bleaching

Non-setting CaOH in tooth for 2 week before final restoration - reverses any acidity that might have occurred if above had happened

Resin infiltration

A

Infiltration of enamel lesions with low viscosity light curing resins
Surface layer is eroded, lesion desiccated and resin infiltrant applied
Resin penetrates the lesion, driven by capillary forces

Trauma
Following pulpotomy
Hypophosphatasia
Immunological deficiency e.g. cyclic neutropenia
Chediak-Higashi syndrome

76
Q

Delayed exfoliation causes

A

Infra-occlusion 1-9%, usually first primary molar, common if congenital absence of premolar, majority exfoliate by age 11-12
Double primary teeth
Hypodontia
Ectopic permanent syccessor
Following trauma

77
Q

Why would natal/neonatal teeth be extracted?

A

Inhalation risk
Problems feeding

78
Q

Chronology of dental management of hypodontia

A

Diagnosed - small children
Removeable prosthesis - waiting to do something more definitive, mixed dentition
Bridgework for missing laterals, orthodontics, composite build ups - teen years
Composite veneers - early 20s (gum margins reach settled level)
Crowns and conventional bridges, implants - adulthood
Enhanced prevention is necessary throughout life, if a pt does not have as many teeth as normal, it is important that they don’t lose any to caries, perio etc
