What causes sugar into acid?
oral bact.
Name a oral bact. that will incre. acid
S. Mutans formation plaque
Acid does to teeth
Destroy teeth enamel and denten
-Solubilized hydroxyapatite crystals
-Flouride introduce in enamel=Fluorapatite crystals
:Incr. R to acid solubility
plaque on teeth
Biofilm protecting bact on teeth
dental cavity is also known as
dental caries
Clinical aspect for dental cavities
Cell making enamel r lost
Surpass denten=expose pulp/N. to hot/cold=incre. sent.
which cell can regen if destroyed in teeth
denten can regenate
NOT enamel
Tx for dental cavities
Fill
Prevent=clean (brush/floss)
Gingivitis
inflamed gingivitis
Inflamed gingiva
Oral mucosa that para/kertinized
Next to teeth
Whole oral keratinized
no only gingiva
Gingivitis caused by
oral bact. Forming biofilm (plaque) on teeth
plaque beneath gum line–>gingiva infection=gingivits
Consequence of gingivitis
gingival erythema and edema Bleed Change contour Loss of soft tissue around teeth Peridontitis=lost teeth
Define Xerostomia
dry mouth b/c dysfunctional salivary gland
What causes a decre. of salivary production in salvary glands
Medication side effect
Autoimmune dis. =Sjogern synd. (attack glands)
Radiation complication (oral cancer)
S/S of Xerostomia
Dry mouth
Tongue papilla atrophy w/ fissure and uleraction
-no trauma but epith. damage b/c of tissue sep.
Xerostomia complication
Incr. risk of oral thrush(candidas)/dental caries
Dysphagia and Dysarthia
define dysphagia and dysarthia
no Swallow and speaking
Types of Salivary glands
Parotid=serous(behind ears) Submandibular(mixed) -serous(MC) and mucus -mouth floor/near jaw Sublingual (mixed) -mucus(MC) and serous
What in saliva
Protein -alpha amylase to brkdwn carb. -lysozyme to attack bact. w/in mouth Glycoprot.(mucus cells) -mucin=lub/move food -->esophagus -conc. antBD Ion/H2O=Bicarb(buffering acid in mouth) IgA=plasma around acini andpolymerized
Tx Xerostomia
change medication
tx sjogern synd.
drug=incre. production w/in muscarine cholinergic Recep.
develop. of esophagus
Trachea and esophagus is one tube Trachea buds off of forgus (lung buds) -dnt sep.=fistual Esophagus gills in and reacnulized for an open tube -dnt occur=atresia
Congential esophageal disorder-caused by
Heart defects
Genitinuranry malformation
N. Dis.
Esophageal disorder=atresia
Blind end Def.=decre. lumen space -developmental issue -result=mechanical destruction Esomagus is asoc. w/ fisutal
S/S atresia
throw-up food while feeding
no good for life
Tx of atresia
sugery but need to find a new opening for feeding
Congential esophageal disorder=fistula
Extra opening/lumen
Abnormal open
S/S of fistual
Aspiration, Suffocation, Pneumonia
Tx fistula
surgery and feeding tub to stomach but might need imaging
cardiac esophageal dis.
Esophageal varices
how are the blood vs. in esophageal varieces and what does the incre. p. do to the walls
Distention and cn rupture
Incre. P.=thin wall, incre. wrinkles and polyps
can esophageal varies cause portal HTN
Yes b/c decre./block BF in liver=incre. P in protal vn
Portal vn drain from GIT=incre. P GIT
-incre. p=blood vs. destention
-channels are formed to decre. P.
-esophageal 1st location=potential connection
Esophageal varices=can blood vs. rupture
Yes
Vomit blood
Survive=loster liver perfusion
-damage/compormise function
Tx for esophageal varices
tx liver disorder=surgery remove varices to decre. blood vol.
-recurrent dis.=incre. damage and scarring affecting LES tonicity and incre. heart burn
