extrinsic factors Flashcards
Features of Calculus? (5)
- does not cause CIPD
- surface plaque is responsible
- not a mechanical irritant
- extends radius of destructions
- inhibits plaque removal
What are extrinsic modifying factors?
enhance plaque retention and inhibit plaque removal i.e. calculus, overhangs

- angle’s classification
- overbite
- overjet less than 6mm
- crowding
- spacing
- axial inclination of incisors
- corssbite
- destructive periodontal dx
W/ malocclusion, ___% increase in bone loss was found for _____ inclined molars?
10%, mesially
W/ malocclusion, buccally found an increase in……?
deposits and inflam in areas of overcrowding
W/ malocclusion, what can overcome the ill effects of tooth overcrowding?
good OH
W/ malocclusion, unless ______ and _______ are associated with ______, they are not related to severity of periodontal dx?
open contacts and uneven marginal ridges;
food impaction
What is the definition of food impaction? What does it result in?
the forceful wedging of food into the periodontium by occlusal forces;
increased probing depth and attachment loss
Food impaction may be associated with…? (3) Factors predisposing to food impaction should be?
- open contacts
- uneven marginal ridges
- plunger cusps;
eliminated during initial therapy
How does dental morphology effect oral health?
concavities, grooves, and furcations inhibit or prevent plaque removal
Furcation anatomy: the size of the average furcation entrace is ____ than a small gracy currette ____% of the time. What are the sizes of each?
smaller, 58%; gracey = 1mm, furcation = 0.75 mm
Furcation anatomy: ___% of furca root surfaces of mandibular molar have a furcal concavity. The majority of….?
100%; maxillary furca root surfaces also have concavities
Which teeth have concavities?
the maxillary first premolar
mandibular incisors, cuspids, and 1st premolars have mesial and distal concavities
Developmental grooves: ___% of maxillary lateral incisors have _____ grooves. The prognosis is….? These grooves are associated _______ as measured by….? (4)
2-6%, distopalatal grooves; poor when associated with deep pocketing;
poor perio health as measured by degree of plaque, inflam, probing depth, and attachment loss
Cervical enamel projections on ____% of max and mandib molars which extend ….? Since only an ___ attachment can form to enamel, this may predispose to….?
4-5%; extend to the furcation entrance;
epithelial attachment, breakdown in presence of inflam.
What are initiating factors?
can cause the disease by themselves, even in an immunologically competent host
Extrinsic (local) factors influence……? influence is reflected and measured _____????????? Local factors generally act by…..?
proximally influence the periodontal health status; locally;
either enhancing plaque retention or inhibiting plaque removal
