exam 2 Flashcards
what is a pregnancy tumor?
localized area of pyogenic granulation tissue
what bacteria is found in juveline perio?
A. Acintomhcetemcomitans
what is the etiologic agent that contributes to disease?
bacteria in the biofilm
the gingiva is reddened, may appear blue red, probing depths increase, pus forms and tissue swells…. capillaries proliferate, T and B lymphocytes occur in equal numbers, extensive collagen destruction occurs, junctional epithelium thickens, rete pegs extend into connective tissue, plasma cells infiltrate, edema increases
established stage 3 gingivitis
this is unresponsive to treatment, gen or localized, no single bacteria identified, several species, multiple attempts have been made to control, patients harbor organisms that are tenacious and resistant
Refractory perio
what is the defining element for classifying perio disease?
the level of attachment loss from the CEJ which indicates bone loss
this is a pathologically deepened sulcus
periodontal pocket
what does a periodontal pocket contain?
subgingival plaque biofilm
metabolic products from biofilm
copious amounts of gingival fluid
calculus
pus
lippopolysacharides
Where is supragingival calculus most abundant?
whartons duct and stensons duct
what two reasons can periodontal pocket depths increase?
coronal movement of the gingival margin through swelling or deepening of the sulcus (gingival enlargements)
perio pockets reflect a progressive deepening of the sulcus through tissue destruction and associated with bone loss
What are the steps of calculus attaching to the tooth structure?
attachment occurs in the relationship with the plaque pellicle forms bacterial plaque begins with gram + cocci calcification occurs 5 days plaque becomes filamentous increase tenacity of calculus attachment mineralization begins 4-8 hrs 50% mineralized in 2 days 90% mineralized in 12 days
what are other names for supragingival calculus?
supramarginal, extragingival, coronal calculus, or salivary calculus
what two microbes are associated with NUG?
disinformation bacillus
spirochete
The gingiva reddens, stippling appears, pus may appear and BOP.. T lymphocytes increase, cells congregate under sulcular epithelium, gingival fluid flow increases, collagen is defrayed, lengethed junctional ep. is distrusted and fibroblasts destroyed
early stage gingivitis stage 2
what are the two mechanisms for the initial of spread of infection?
bacteria and products may break down interface between epithelium and cause detachment of junctional epithelium
bacterial products interfere with normal growth and maintenance of the junctional and sulcular epithelium causing a break down
what happens with the sodium content of calculus as the pocket deepens?
increases
what is another name for subgingival calculus?
submarignal or serumal
how does subgingival calculus attach to the tooth structure?
pellicle attachment to cementum is mode of adherence
crystal grow deep into cemental irregularities
appear similar to cementum, termed calculocementus
not site specific
must use xray to detect
this is not a benign substance to the pathogenesis of gingival and periodontal disease, but plays a much smaller part in these disease than bacterial plaque biofilm
calculus
what causes the increase of neutrophils with the pathogensis of perio?
chemotaxis
this is the loss of crestal alveolar bone through the inflammatory response
periodontal bone loss
where does subgingival calculus form from?
from mineralized plaque biofilm
what are the trace elements found in supragingival calculus?
fluoride,zinc, and stronium
what does calculus provide a reservoir for?
bacteria and endotoxins
what is calculus divided into?
supragingival and subgingival
this is the extension of inflammation into the attachment apparatus and development of periodontal pockets
pathogenicity
