1-dental caries
1-multifactorial—tooth, bacteria, diet. bacteria will accumulate at specific tooth to form plaque (biofilm)
- can ferment sugars & carbs to form lactic acid—acid generation can result in microscopic dissolution of minerals in tooth enamel & formation of opaque white/brown under enamel
- frequency of carb consuption, physical characteristic of food, & timing of food intake

-calculus detection in interproximal area
3-30-40% demin is needed for radiographic detection of a lesion
- thickness of tooth buccolingually masks the carious lesion when small
- depth of penetration of a lesion is deeper clinically than radiographically
4-visual exam of teeth may not find caries if surface is intact due to remin (not cavitated)…radiographs may be only way to detect caries if surfaces are intact
1-shape of carious lesion
2-factors affecting caries diagnosis
1-early lesion in enamel—a triangle w/ braod base at tooth surface spreads along enamel rods

1-Amalgam
2-dental amalgam
1-1st used in erope
GV Black used dental amalgam formula
-since its inception there have been controversy about dental amalgam bc of the mercury component

gamma 2= weakest
2-12% copper: gamma + Hg= gamma + gamma 1 +eta
high copper allows eliminate gamma 2
elimination of weak gamma 2 phase improves properties of high copper amalgam
3-set amalgam has unreacted allow (gamma) 50%- imp for corrosion, resistance & strength
-little or no mercury remains unreacted
1-properties of amalgam compressive strength
2-strength
1-resist forces of mastication w/o fracture
- 1 hr gets 40-60% of its compressive strength- so patients cant chew right after placement
- spherical high copper amalgams develop strength earlier
- all amalgams reach final strength after 7 days
2-improper trituration will affect strength (mix too long to too short)
-inadequate condensation will result in voids in restoration= weak restoration
1-properties of amalgam tensile strength
2-properties of amalgam dimensional change
3-positive dimensional change
4-negative dimensional change
5- creep

2-dimensional change= % shrinakge or expansion of material
- dissolution of gamma= contraction
- formation of gamma 1 and eta= expansion
- dimensional change is the sum of the 2

1-condensation
2-carving amalgam
1-adapt amalgam to cavity prep walls & margins
- produce restoration w/o voids
- reduce & minimize mercury in restoration

- done in 3.5 min—8-10 lbs of pressure: use smaller condenser to get higher pressure and then larger condenser towards the end
2-carving time, amalgam should provide resistance to carver
- carvers should be on both tooth structures & amalgams—prevents ditching

2-bacteria
3-dental calculus
4-localized aggressive periodontitis
1-forming advanced glycation end products AGP
- stimulating exaggerated inflam response
- reducing ability of fibroblasts to form collagen & reduce response to growth factors
2-anaerobes & facultattive—Aa, Pg, Tf, plaque serves as reservoir for these microflora
-porphyromonas gingivalis, tannerella forsythia, & aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans
3-consists of mineralized bacterial plaque that forms on surfaces of teeth & dental prostheses
4-circumpertal onset, robust serum Ab response to agents, 1st molar & incisors w/ interproximal attachment loss on at least 2 permanent teeth
1-papillon lefevre syndrome
2-age
3-race/ethnicity
4-stress
1-autosomal recessive trait
hyperkeratosis of palms & soles
keratosis of other skin surfaces
calcification in falx cerebri
exfoliation of teeth + destruction in alveolar bone
2-as age inc, prevalence, extent & severity of chronic perio also increases
3-blacks+ mexicans more
native american, asians & pacific islanders
more plaque + calc = higher in blacks
4-down regulates cell immune response, promoting perio breakdown
-patients w/ high stress/low coping = less oral health motivation
1-immunosuppressive drugs/dosages
2-risk marker
1-cyclosporine A 5 mg, Tacrolimus 0.1 mg, Mycophenolate mofetil 2 mg
2-previous perio treatment, previous perio surgery, compliance—maitenance & hygiene, historical radiographs
—bleeding on probing= inflammation
no bleeding= health
