Q

What kind of nerve endings are in the PDL?

Q

When is PDL fluid expelled?

A

When pressure is maintained

*after 3-5 seconds tooth is compressed against PDL and bone

Q

T/F resting pressures of lips, cheeks, and tongue are balanced

A

False;

Mand ant: greater tongue pressure
Max incisor: Lip pressure is greater

Q

What is the lip bumper?

A

removable appliance used in kids to create and save space necessary to accommodate adult teeth without extraction.
Harnesses the natural forces of the muscles surrounding the lower teeth to broaden the length of the dental arch

*tongue pushes teeth forward and out

Q

what two things can cause chemical messengers that lead to remodeling of alveolar bone and tooth movement to be released?

A

1-Mechanical Compression of tissues
2- changes in the blood flow

*cytokines and prostaglandins

16
Q

Do prostaglandins releases in primary or secondary response to pressure?

A

primary

17
Q

Do prostaglandins stimulate osteoclasts or osteoblasts?

A

both

18
Q

what causes undermining resorption?

A

The PDL is compressed to the point where there is no blood flow . Osteoclasts in the adjacent marrow space will attack the underside of the lamina dura

19
Q

what is the main drawback of undermined resorption?

A

tooth movement is delayed because osteoblasts and clasts are unable do differentiate without blood flow.

20
Q

Where are the osteoclasts activated from during during frontal resorption

A

Local population of progenitor cells in the PDL

*2nd wave of clasts come from distant areas via blood flow

21
Q

Which happens first, alveolar frontal resorption or tension remodeling?

A

frontal resorption

*recruit osteoblasts from PDL

22
Q

Frontal resorption offers a _____ tooth movement, while undermining resorption has a ______ resulting in ______ movement

A

smooth, delay, jumpy

23
Q

Not only is tooth movement more ________ when the PDL area avoids necrosis, but pain is ______.

A

efficient, lessened

24
Q

what kind of resorption is the rate limiting step?

A

undermining resorption

*there will always be at least some undermining

25
Q

Do self ligating brackets accelerate tooth movement?

A

no

26
Q

When does most dental trauma occur?

A

ages 7-10

*anterior incisor region

27
Q

T/F avulsed primary teeth should be replanted

A

False

28
Q

How long after a permanent tooth is avulsed and replanted should revals happen?

A

2-3 years

*check for PA abscess, root resorption, ankylosis

29
Q

What are some examples of appropriate transport media for an avulsed tooth?

A
  • Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS)
  • Milk
  • Saline
  • Saliva (cup, or keep in vestibule)
  • water (last choice)
30
Q

What do you do if a tooth has an extraoral dry time of less than 1 hour?

A

replant immediately

*regardless if it was stored in fluid

31
Q

How do you manage tooth surfaces of a tooth that has been avulsed for less than 60 minutes?

A
  • keep moist
  • handle crown
  • don’t remove native landmarks
  • remove debris carefully
  • rinse and replant
32
Q

What do you soak a tooth in that has an extraoral dry time of more than 60 minutes?

A

dental fluoride solution for 20 minutes

33
Q

How do you manage a socket of a tooth with an extraoral dry time of greater than 60 minutes?

A
  • gently aspirate or irrigate
  • don’t curettage, vent, or cut a flap
  • use blunt instrument to reposition socket
  • replant
