Q

Primary

A

Primary: needs to begin before disease occurs, education, limited sugar intake, avoid nighttime bottles, avoid baby bottle/breastfeeding past 12 months, brushing x2 day, topical fluoride treatment, fluoridated water

Secondary: prevent progression of/remineralization of caries before cavitation stage, early detection, sealants, more frequent fluoride varnish

Lactobacilli
(opposite charges attract)

63
Q

Explain 1X1X1

A

Chlorhexidine can lowe bacterial challenge by using daily one week each month

64
Q

Understand the relevance of systemic fluorides on tooth formation

A

Ameloblasts secrete enamel matrix proteins (amelogenin) mineralized in 2nd stage to form enamel
External factors (fluoride) can stop development/mineralization of enamel (ameloblast stop secreting)
= Enamel Defects

65
Q

ability to influence processes by facilitating calcium and phosphate precipitation

A

FLuoride

66
Q

= drinking water
= mouthwash
= pediatric toothpaste used to be
= toothpaste

A

0.1 – 1 ppm
50-250ppm
500-600ppm
1000-1450ppm

67
Q

When the pH in the mouth falls below 5.5 the teeth demineralize

A

-Ca and PO4 minerals are removed from the tooth –> saliva is hyper mineralized
-formation of white spot lesions
-When the pH is reestablished at 7.0 the Ca and PO4 minerals are incorporated from the saliva back into the tooth structure
-Fluoride helps Ca and PO4 be incorporated faster and more efficiently
-forms calcium fluorate (CaF) : accumulates in smooth enamel and dental plaque

68
