Q

When is PHG infectious

A

During the vesicular stage

20
Q

Lichen planus

A
Disease of the skin and mucous membranes
Itchy, swollen rash on the skin or in mouth
Intense redness of gingiva
Ulcerations
Raised white lesions may be present
21
Q

Whickam Striae ( interlacing white lines )

A

Lichen planus

22
Q

Erythema multiforme

A

Disorder of skin and mucous membranes

Large red blotches, resembling targets, appear all over the skin

23
Q

Blisters and ulcers occur on the oral mucous membranes with crust formation on lip

A

Erythema multiforme

24
Q

Gingival diseases of specific bacterial origin

A

Characterized by a bacterial infection of the gingiva by a specific bacterium that is not a common component of the bacterial plaque biofilm

25
Q

Infection by a bacterium that is not usually considered to be a periodontal pathogen

A

Gingival diseases of specific bacterial origin

26
Q

Diabetes associated gingivitis

A

An inflammatory response of the gingiva to plaque aggravated by poorly controlled blood glucose levels

27
Q

Most common form of periodontitis

A

Chronic perio

28
Q

A bacterial infection resulting in inflammation within the supporting tissues of the teeth

A

Chronic perio

29
Q

Chronic perio

A

Common in adults over 35 but can occur in children and young adults
Host response plays an essential role in pathogenesis
Disease progresses at a slow or moderate rate
Irreversible destruction of all areas of the periodontium

30
Q

Is the appearance of the gingival tissues always a reliable indicator of the prescence of severity of periodontitis?

A

NO

31
Q

Localized chronic perio

A

30 % or less of sites in the mouth have experienced attachment loss and bone loss

32
Q

Generalized chronic perio

A

More than 30% of sites in the mouth have attachment loss and bone loss

33
Q

Recurrent chronic perio

A

New signs of destructive periodontitis that reappear after therapy because

  • The disease was not adequately treated
  • The pt did not practice adequate self-care
34
Q

Refractory chronic perio

A

Cases of chronic perio that does not respond to periodontal therapy
Continued attachment loss at one or more sites even though
- therapy was appropiate and adequate
- pt practiced good self-care

35
Q

Aggressive perio

A

Bacterial infection characterized by rapid destruction of

  • periodontal ligament
  • supporting alveolar bone
36
Q

Is aggressive perio more common or less common than chronic perio?

A

Less common

37
Q

Primary features of aggressive perio

A

Rapid destruction of attachment

No obvious signs or symptons of systemic disease

38
Q

What was aggressive perio previously known as?

A

Early onset perio

Renamed because it can occur at any age

39
Q

Secondary features of aggressive perio

A
Small amounts of plaque
Elevated proportions of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomiton (Aa)
Phagocyte abnormalities
Lack of clinical signs
Poor response to periodontal therapy
40
Q

Localized aggressive perio (LAP)

A

Onset of disease during puberty
Localized, rapid tissue destruction around PERMANENT FIRST MOLARS AND/OR INCISORS
Involving no more than two teeth other than first molars and incisors

41
Q

Frequently associated with Aa

A

LAP

42
Q

Classic radiograph sign of LAP

A

Vertical bone loss around first molars and incisors

43
Q

LAP was previously called what

A

Localized juvenile perio

44
Q

Generalized aggressive perio (GAP)

A

Onset usually occurs in people under 30
Generalized interproximal attachment loss affecting at least three permanent teeth other than the first molars and incisors

45
Q

What was GAP previously called?

A

Generalized juvenile perio or early - onset perio
