Classification Scheme for Periodontal & Peri-Implant Diseases Flashcards
The periodontitis Armitage 1999 states that the severity of disease is based upon:
clinical attachment level (gold standard)
The periodontitis Armitage 1999 states that the severity of disease is based upon clinical attachment level (gold standard)
Slight:
Moderate:
Severe:
Slight: 1-2 mm
Moderate: 3-4mm
Severe: >= 5mm
The periodontitis Armitage 1999 states that the severity of disease is based upon clinical attachment level (gold standard)
________: 1-2mm
________: 3-4mm
________: greater than or equal to 5mm
Slight: 1-2mm
Moderate: 3-4mm
Severe: greater than or equal to 5mm
What is the PRIMARY cause of tooth loss in the US population over the age of 30?
Periodontitis
With the 1999 classification of periodontal diseases and conditions, why was there concern with the categories chronic periodontitis and aggressive periodontitis?
there was not enough evidence that they were two different entities
In simple terms what’s it mean if you have periodontitis?
attachment loss
What can cause pseudo pockets?
gingival hyperplasia due to medications, genetic diseases etc.
Attachment loss can be measured via:
radiographic bone loss & probing depths
If there is no attachment loss there is no _____ because its not ____
staging & grading; periodontitis
Few practitioners use _____ routinely
clinical attachment level (CAL)
AAP formed a task force in 2015 to identify alternative criteria including:
- radiographic bone loss (RBL)
- probing depth (PD)
T/F: A 6mm probing depth with 20% bone loss is significantly different that 6 mm with 75% bone loss
True
Probing depth is not considered:
diagnostic
Probing depth is not considered diagnostic because: (2)
- Inflammation has effect on penetration of probe into tissue
- Inflammation (swelling) may move gingival margin coronally (pseudo pocket)
When inflammation moves the gingival margin coronally:
pseudopocket
In regard to the 2015 task force guidelines, the 2017 workshop recommended: (2)
- use interproximal attachment loss (2 or more non-adjacent teeth)
- use probing depth as a “complexity” factor (difficulty of treatment)
How do you use attachment loss?
Use two sites that are not next to each other
The 2017 classification of periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions new classification is based on strongest:
current evidence
The 2017 classification of periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions developed a ______ system that is:
adaptive system; 3 dimensional
The 2017 classification of periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions adaptive system (3 dimensional) takes into account: (3)
- severity/extent (number of teeth affected rather than sites)
- prognosis (affects no teeth, up to 4 teeth, 5 or more teeth)
- progression (grading)
