Chapter/power point review Flashcards
What are the assessment findings?
Chief complaint, Risk factors: Periodontal Infections, Systemic conditions, Dental caries, Oral Cancer
What are assessment findings( part 2 )?
Patients overall health status: Physical status, tobacco use
Patients oral health knowledge level
Patients self-care ability
Documentation of assessment datat
What is the chief complaint?
A patient’s statement regarding the reason for seeking dental and dental hygiene care.(If a patient is experiencing pain, this needs to be addressed first prior to dental hygiene)
What are risk factors for Periodontal infections or poor response to periodontal therapy?
behavioral factors( inadequate biofilm removal, diet, and noncompliance ), tobacco use, systemic conditions( diabetes, decreased immune factors, osteoporosis, and osteopenia ), hormonal considerations( pregnancy and menopause ), nutritional status, iatrogenic factors( overhangs, residual calculus ), genetic factors
Periodontal disease is a risk factor for which systemic conditions?
Diabetes Mellitus, Infective Endocarditis, Cardiovascular Disease, Atherosclerosis, Respiratory disease, Adverse pregnancy outcomes
What is ASA?
American īmof Anesthesiologists
What is assessment?
It’s the critical analysis or judgement of a particular condition, situation, or other subject of appraisal.
What is anticipatory guidance?
Patient education and oral hygiene instructions that anticipate potential oral and systemic health problems associated with risk factors identified during patient assessment.
Define Compromised Therapy
Initial therapy and continued periodontal maintenance provided as the therapeutic end point in cases where the severity and extent of the disease or the age and health of the patent preclude optimal results of periodontal therapy.
What is definitive care?
Complete care; end point at which all treatment required at the time has been completed.
Define the word diagnose.
To identify or recognize a disease or problem.
What is Diagnosis?
A statement of the problem; a concise technical description of the cause, nature, or manifestations of a condition, situation, or problem; identification of a disease or deviation from normal condition by recognition of characteristic signs and symptoms..
What is dental hygiene diagnosis?
Identification of an existing or potential oral health problem that dental hygienist is qualified and licensed to treat.
What is differential diagnosis?
Identification of which one of several disease or conditions may be producing the symptoms.
Define Evidence-base care?
Providing oral care base on relevant, scientifically sound research.
What does OSCAR stand for?
a mnemonic that stands for Oral, Systemic, Capability, Autonomy, and Reality. Developed by the American Academy of Oral Medicine to provide a convenient, systematic approach to identifying dental, medical/pharmacologic, functional, ethical, and fiscal factors that need to be evaluated and weighed when planning treatment for geriatric individuals or those with disabilities.
Define Prognosis.
Prediction of outcome; a forecast of the probable course and outcome of a disease and the prospects of recovery as expected by the nature of the specific condition and the symptoms of the case.
Dental hygiene prognosis: a judgement regarding the results expected to be achieved from oral treatment provided by a dental hygienist.
What is a risk factor?
An attribute or exposure that increases the probability of disease such as an aspect off personal behavior, environmental exposure, or an inherited characteristic associated with health-related conditions.
Modifiable Risk Factor: a determinant that can be modified by intervention, thereby reducing the probability of disease.
What are risk factors for dental caries?
Inadequate biofilm removal, frequent use of cariogenic foods/beverages, low flouride, tooth morphology or postition( deep occlusal pits, fissures, exposed root surfaces, rotated position ), xerostomia, personal and family history of dental caries, developmental factors( modifications of dental enamel ), genetic factors( immune response )
What are risk factors for oral cancer?
Tobacco and alcohol use, sun exposure( lips and face )
The use of tobacco will affect oral status and dental hygiene outcomes?T/F
True
What is type 1 gingival disease?
Inflammation of the gingiva, changes in color form, size and position of margin with bleeding on probing
What is type 2 early periodontitis?
Progression of inflammation into deeper periodontal structures with slight bone loss and connective tissue attachment, subgingival calculus, and measurable pocket depth with bleeding on probing
What is type 3 moderate periodontitis?
A more advanced state of the preceding type( type 2 early periodontitis ), with increased destruction of the periodontal structure, increased probing depth with bleeding, noticeable loss of bony support with early to moderate furcation invasions, mobility, and fremitis.
