A

Not role of dentist to manage neglect,

  • within scope of dentist to give evidence surrounding injuries and therefore importance of impeccable record keeping.

101
Q

handpiece used to cut bone

A

straight electrical handpeice with saline cooled and tungsten carbide burs

air causes surgical ambolism

102
Q

key things of flap design and suture placement

A
  • Do not cut through neurovascular structures (mental foramen),
  • wide based incision,
  • no sharp access,
  • maximal access,
  • flap margins and sutures lie on sound bone,
  • no crushing,
  • minimise trauma to dental papillae,
  • consider post op aesthetics,
  • 1 continuous stroke of scalpel,
  • flap reflection down to bone,
  • keep moist,
  • Suture in the papillae areas and either side of relieving incision if present.
103
Q

possible long term effects on permanent tooth of trauma (7)

A
  • No damage at all,
  • areas of hypoplasia and hypomineralisation
  • dilacerations,
  • eruption delayed,
  • partial or complete arrest of tooth formation
  • odontome formation,
  • ectopic tooth position.
104
Q

nursing/bottle caries pattern

A

all upper teeth included. (smooth surface)

Inappropriate use of feeding bottles and cups.

  • Cups should be used from 6months,
  • no sugars in bottles,
  • not given to child in bed,
  • soy milk cariogenic.

Frequency of consumption is major factor!

105
Q

normal pattern of caries in permanent dentition

A

6s pits and fissures first

interproximal areas

pits and fissures

not smooth surface

106
Q

types of post

4 categories to class

A
  • preformed /custom
  • tapered/ parallel
  • threaded/ serrated/ smooth
  • metal/fibre
107
Q

parallel v tapered

A

Parallel has greater retention when compared to tapered, also less likely to cause root fracture as load not dispersed horizontally (transfers down long axis).

Taper useful where large natural taper already present or been created with shaping.

108
Q

length of post

A

Length should be at least equal to crown height, (more than 1/2 root length)

leaving 4-5 mm of GP apically.

Not extending past a bend in the root.
