disease is dental calcified structures

cavities

43
Q

A

lactobaccilli

44
Q

plaque index

A

assess presence of plaque

45

occurs in top of plaque
thick white or gray substance

47
Q

food debris

A

loose food particles

48
Q

calculus

A

calcified dental plaque

must be removed by a professional

49
Q

perioscopy

A

camera that moves and shows subgingival calculus

50
Q

supragingival calculus

A

occurs in the coronal portion to the margin

51
Q

subgingival calculus

A

calculus forms between the sulcus

52
Q

amelogenesis imperfecta

arranged in order of time

57
Q

dentinogenesis imperfecta

A

hereditary disorder of dentin formation in which odontoblasts lay down and abnormal matrix

58
Q

endogenous

A

Stains that develop or originate within the tooth

59
Q

Exogenous

A

Originating outside are caused by factors outside

60
Q

Extrinsic

Incomplete development or under development of an organ or tissue

62
Q

Intrinsic

A

Situated entirely within

63
Q

etiology of stain

A

Caused by predisposing factors, another factor, such a Dental plaque calculus foods and beverages and tobacco

64
Q

what tools can you use to identify a stain

A

medical/dental history
food record
