What do you do for all TMD issues
Splint and refer to dental
Halitosis may also result as an underlying medical condition such as
failure or
ketoacidosis.
The primary treatment of caries is
drill n’ fill
Newer porcelain or gold inalay and onlays resemble what?
enamel.
gingivitis can cause what type of carries?
root caries
how can you treat a dentin fx
drill and fill
purpose of emergency dental exam
treat the issue/ pain
what disrupts the blood supply to the pulp
pulpitis
REF for smoking cessation
BUMEDINST 6200.12A
What is tooth #17
bottom-left most posterior molar
What cranial nerve comprises the lingual nerve
Mandubular #3 of the trigeminal
Tooth subluxation should be treated with
manipulation of the tooth into its proper position.
Splinted if necessary
facial deformity caused by a short mandibular ramus.
Deviation of chin to affected side, elongated mandible, flatness of face on unaffected side. Malocclusion
Condylar hypoplasia
Chronic gingivitis, may evolve into
periodontitis
he only treatment for Intrinsic staining is
bleaching or covering teeth with prosthetics.
what can result from an untreated pulpitis that forms an abess that drains
apical abscess
you are at a higher risk for carries if you have what?
Xerostomia
occurs when the tooth is internally stained. This can happen as a result of a necrotic pulp, use of certain medications or high fever while teeth are developing, or with long term smoking or coffee drinking. T
Intrinsic staining
Focal erythema, swelling, and fluctuance, with a possible sinus tract (fistula) would suggest a
periapical abscess.
The most common causes of toothaches are
Caries
(a) Commonly known as “cavities.”
tx for pulpitis
drill and fill
What provide the same aesthetics as composites, but without shrinkage.
They also slowly release fluoride into the tooth.
Glass Ionomers
What can reduce the reliance on oral analgesics
tooth block
connective tissue of the tooth located within the pulp cavity containing blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatic vessels
Pulp
is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by persistent accelerated growth of the condyle.
Crossbite malocclusion, facial asymmetry, and shifting of the midpoint of the chin to the unaffected side. Lower border of mandible is often convex
on the affected side.
Condylar hyperplasia
complaining of pain and mobility but no displacement
subluxation
Focal erythema, swelling, and fluctuance, with a possible sinus tract (fistula) would suggest a
periapical abscess.
Sometimes visible fluctuant swelling but more severe that can extend to the cheek
Periapical abscess
Treating a manduble fx
Barton bandage
Refer
Post extraction if it keeps bleeding what do you do?
Pack it
Re-implantation for avulsion success rates decrease by what as the tooth is out of the socket
1% every minute
What is the first line of defense
Amylase & lipase
What is the deposition of local anesthetic near a major nerve trunk at a greater distance from the area of treatment, which provides wider areas of anesthesia.
Regional block
May have prodrome of burning or itching.
- ¼ to 6mm round ulcerations with yellow-gray fibrinoid centers surrounded by red
halos.
-Found on non-keratinized tissue.
Aphthous ulcers are commonly known as “canker sores” and also known as Recurrent
Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS).
What is?
Each root canal has an opening at its base through which blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves extend
apical foramen
periapical inflammation that leads to necrosis leads to what
periapical parotitis
consists of a calcified connective tissue that gives the tooth its basic shape and rigidity
Dentin
What contains the Cementumal Enamel Junction (CEJ) where the Enamel and Cementum meet?
Neck
what do you do for a pt with pulpitis
refer
immuno suppressed is what for this test?
high count
What is the block mostly used
IA: Inferior Alveolar
What is tooth #16
top-left
most posterior molar
Extrinsic staining can be prevented with
or removed by
-good oral hygiene
-removed by a dental professional in the same manner as dental calculus
-results from changing patterns of hyperkeratosis and erythema on dorsum and edges of tongue
-resembles a map, and may migrate over time.
-Usually asymptomatic, but may be associated with burning when eating spicy or acidic
food.
Benign migratory glossitis, or “geographic tongue,”
Dark, elongated filiform papillae, stained by chromeogenic microorganisms, giving the
appearance of hair.
Hairy Tongue
how can you tell if its a dentin fx
patients usually exhibit sensitivity to cold
air and water
is infected gingiva that results as bacteria is trapped over a partially erupted tooth, usually 3rd molars.
Pericoronitis
Treatment involves operculectomy or extraction.
Tooth is mobile but no displacement
Subluxation
What is the hard white outer layer of the tooth?
Enamel
______ infected gingiva that results as bacteria is trapped over a partially erupted tooth, usually 3rd molars
Pericoronitis
is anterior misalignment of the articular disk above the
condyle.
Internal joint derangement
traumatic injury where the tooth has been removed from the socket
Avulsion
