Digestion & Metabolism 2: Periodontal & Oral Dz Flashcards
periodontal disease…
= definition
4 components?
caused by..
often has a ____ cause
ULTIMATELY causes what presentation?
= INFLAMMATORY DISEASE OF ALL PERIODONTAL TISSUES, including…
1. Gingiva
2. Periodontal ligament
3. Alveolar bone
4. Cementum
CAUSED by IMBALANCE BETWEEN BACTERIAL FLORA/PLAQUES in mouth & HOST IMMUNE SYSTEM
often has a MULTIFACTORIAL cause
ULTIMATELY causes…
–> LOSS OF BONE and DETACHMENT OF THE TOOTH
function of periodontal tissues?
help ATTACH TOOTH TO HEAD
what is a TOOTH FURCATION?
the area where the roots divide and branch into multiple teeth at a time
describe this STAGE OF PERIODONTAL DZ..?
weird one
likely STAGE II PERIODONTAL DISEASE, see <25% ATTACHMENT SEPARATION between TOOTH FURCATION and GINGIVA
5 stages of PERIODONTAL DISEASE?
include % attachment loss, furcation #, probe use and RADIOGRAPHIC findings
Stage I
–> ONLY GINGIVITIS
–> Don’t see ANYTHING ON RADIOGRAPHS because ANATOMY MAINTAINED & NO BONE LOSS
Stage II
–> <25% attachment loss at the tooth
–> Furcation 1
–> Can use PROBE to GO BETWEEN TOOTH ROOTS to determine if FURCATION SEPARATION is present!
Stage III
–> 25-50% attachment loss
–> Furcation II
–> Can use the probe to go INTO THE FURCATION and should go BEYOND HALF THE WIDTH OF THE BONE
–> BONE IS STILL PRESENT
Stage IV
–> >50% attachment loss
–> Furcation III
–> SEVERE = see BONE LOSS AND DETACHMENT OF THE TOOTH
describe the 3 parts of this picture in relation to PERIODONTAL DISEASE
T = tooth
G = gingiva
1 = NORMAL
–> gingiva and tooth can be separated by 1-3 mm sulcus
2 = GINGIVAL RECESSION & PERIODONTAL DZ
–> TOOTH ROOT EXPOSED and LARGER SULCUS CAN FORM
3 = POCKET FORMED and PERIODONTAL DZ
–> LARGER SULCUS FORMS
–> PERIODONTAL LIGAMENT LOST, so GINGIVA IS THICKENED
identify TOP and BOTTOM bubble findings on this radiograph
TOP = PERIODONTAL LIGAMENT
BOTTOM = BONE LOSS
ID the stage of periodontal DZ on LEFT and RIGHT tooth
LEFT = STAGE 4
RIGHT = STAGE 2
TREATMENT for PERIODONTAL DZ…
can be VARIABLE depending on what 5 things?
3 treatment options?
variable depending on…
1. severity
2. tooth affected
3. functional ability
4. owner compliance for toothbrushing/cleaning
5. patient
3 Tx options?
1. PROFESSIONAL dental cleaning
2. BONE & GUIDED tissue REGENERATION
3. GINGIVAL GRAFTS
TOOTH RESORPTION…
= definition?
what SPECIES/AGE is this most common in?
dz over time?
etiology? (2)
= OSTEOCLASTS start to DESTROY & RESORB the tooth and can REPLACE W/ OSTEOID
common in MIDDLE-AGED CATS
tends to be a PROGRESSIVE DZ
etiology?
1. IDIOPATHIC largely
2. potentially due to EXCESS VITAMIN D IN DIET
DESCRIBE LESION & WHAT AGE/SPECIES THIS IS MOST COMMON IN
TOOTH RESORPTION
MOST COMMON IN MIDDLE-AGED CATS
CLASSIFICATION of tooth resorption…
TYPE 1? (2 findings & treatment)
TYPE 2? (1 finding, & overall how the animal feels)
TYPE 1 = INFLAMMATORY resorption
1. bone loss USUALLY ASSOCIATED
2. PERIODONTAL LIGAMENT still present
tx = EXTRACTION of affected teeth
TYPE 2 = REPLACEMENT RESORPTION
1. PERIODONTAL LIGAMENT is REPLACED or GONE and becomes PART OF TURNOVER OF THE BONE
overall, animal feels USUALLY NON-PAINFUL unless inflammation remains
ID TYPE OF TOOTH RESORPTION
TYPE 1
ID TYPE OF TOOTH RESORPTION
TYPE 2
5 stages of TOOTH resorption?
WHAT ARE THEY BASED ON?
BASED ON DESTRUCTION OF THE TOOTH
Stage 1 = CANNOT BE SEEN ON RADS, ONLY affects the CEMENTUM
Stage 2 = affects SURFACE and goes IN, DENTIN now affected
Stage 3 = AFFECTS PULP
Stage 4 = affects CROWN or ROOT
Stage 5 = EVERYTHING IS RESORBED, CROWN NOT PRESENT & GRANULATION TISSUE IN GINGIVA
