A
Free gingiva
Gingival margin
Free gingival groove
Gingival sulcus
Junctional epithelium
Attached gingiva
Interdental papilla
129
Q

Attachment of ortho/parakeratinized epithelium to CT

A

Tightly bound, relatively immovable, withstands strong shearing forces and is less permeable

Slower cell turnover

130
Q

What is basal lamina?

A

Two cell layers that separate epithelium from CT

131
Q

What is the attachment mechanism of basal lamina

A

Occurs via hemidesmosomes

The more the tissue needs to be anchored and stay in place, the more prominent the epithelial ridges will be

132
Q

Location of attached gingiva

A

Extends from free gingiva to MGJ and attaches to alveolar bone

B/L/P/L

133
Q

Concentratuon of rete ridges in free gingiva

A

Increased concentration of rete ridges

134
Q

Characteristics of lining mucosa

A

Nonkeratinized, stratified squamous epithelium

Found in the sulcus, JE, col region, floor of mouth, ventral surface of tongue, soft palate

135
Q

Characteristics of epithelial rete ridges

A

Concave, torturous curves of basal lamina that increase surface area contact to CT

Most prominent in masticatory mucosa

136
Q

Function of gingival ligaments

A

Supports the gingiva

137
Q

Characteristics of JE

A

Forms floor of gingival sulcus
At same level of free gingival groove
Attaches gingiva directly to tooth surface via hemidesmosomes

External separates epithelial cells & lamina propria
Internal anchors to lamina densa

138
Q

Which are the first teeth to exfoliate?

A

Maxillary and mandibular centrals
E&F
O&P
6-7 years

139
Q

Which are the first non-succedaneous teeth to erupt?

A

Maxillary and mandibular 1st molars at 6-7 years
8 & 9
24 & 25

140
Q

During which stage does formation of ABP occur?

A

Eruptive stage

141
Q

Order of tissue resorption during exfoliation

A

1st- Cementum
2nd- Dentin & Pulp
3rd- Enamel

142
Q

Enamel formation vs root formation & maturation

A

Enamel is fully formed but not calcified until several years after eruption

Root formation occurs during the eruptive stage and aids in eruption

Both finish maturing post eruption

143
Q

What is the current eruption theory?

A

Myofibroblasts of PDL exhibit contractile capabilities, pulling tooth in an axial direction

144
Q

What are the 3 major salivary glands and their secretion

A

Parotid gland- pure serous
Submandibular- mixed
Sublingual- mixed

145
Q

Which glands secrete intermittently and continuously?

A

Major glands secrete intermittently

Minor glands secrete continuously

146
Q

What are the 3 acinar cell types?

A

Pure serous TSU- watery thin saliva
Pure mucous TSU- viscous, thick saliva
Mixed TSU- combination secretion

147
Q

Mandibular condyle CT covering in children

A

Covered by hyaline cartilage

148
Q

Mandibular condyle CT covering in adults

A

Covered by fibrocartilage

149
Q

Cells of the articular disc

A

Composed of collagen and elastin

Collagen derived from fibroblasts

150
Q

Cells of acute inflammation

A

Presence of PMN’s

More symptoms, pain etc.

151
Q

Cells of chronic inflammation

A

Lymphocytes and plasma cells

Less symptoms, pain etc.

152
Q

Cardinal signs of inflammation

A

Color change
Swelling/edema

Bleeding and suppuration

153
Q

Cardinal symptoms of inflammation

A

Pain
Heat
Loss of function (cant chew)

154
Q

Which anesthesia blocks must be administered to cover the maxillary 1st molar?

A

MSA and PSA
