Q
describe Compton scatter and how it differs from photoelectric effect
A
interaction of x-ray photon with loosely bound outer electron of atom. Electron is ejected due to greater energy of photon.

79
rational for use of antibiotics in perio tx (3)
* perio is caused by bacteria
* some bacteria are inaccessible to debridement
* e.g. they have invaded dentine tubules and tissues
* non dental areas - tonsils, tongue affected
* systemic signs of infection
80
problems limiting use of AB in perio tx (5)
* antibiotics may inactivate or degrade by non-target oragnisms
* biofilms - resist AB
* allergic reactions
* resistance
* superinfection
81
in which perio situations would it be appropriate to prescribe AB
* periodontal abscesses or ANUG with systemic involvement
* ongoing disease despite meticulous mechanical therapy and good OH
* medically compromised pts
82
3 reasons for carrying obturation of prepared root canals
* prevent bacteria left in the canal after obturation escaping to surrounding periodontal space - via apical foramen and lateral canals
* prevent bacteria from infecting root tissue via coronal leakage
* prevent infectin of root from periradicular exudate via apical forament, lateral canals
83
describe stages in obturating root canal in upper central incisor
cold lateral compaction technique
* choose appropriate GP master file cone corresponding to final extirpating file
* mark the length of the canal preparation on the cone
* check tug back
* cover in root canal sealer (epoxy resin) and place in canal
* place in accessory cones covered in sealer utilising a finger spreader (2mm from apical stop)
* using a hot excavator, cut the coronal end of the GP just below the ACJ
84
which part of the canal filling is most important in ensuring long term success of tx
coronal seal (determines the success of the final restoration)
85
vertical interproximal bone loss with perio
2 theories
1. plaque causes destruction within 2mm radius, if a bone is \>2mm thick an angular bone defect may occur
2. occlusion with bacterial plaque is a causative factor in perio attachment loss and bone destruction. Inflammation of gingivae occurs and this spreads to the PDL resulting in an area of co-destruction - produces vertical bone defect due to local trauma which exacerbates it
86
horizontal bone loss in molars significant when
it involves furcation
87
4 tx options for quadrant after HPT and excellent OH but persistent pockets \>5mm
1. non surgical re-treat with HPT
2. surgical open flap curettage/debridement
3. do nothing
4. extract
88
tooth brushing regimes for children as per SIGN 83 guideline
modified bass technique
* hold the toothbrush at 45 degrees to the tooth to get under the gum line
* horizontal strokes
* 1 tooth at a time
* be methodical - start in upper right proceed to upper left then lower left and lower right
89
diet diary kept for
3 days (1 day is a weekend day)
90
2 most common models of disability
social model
medical model
91
social model of disability
is caused by the way society is organised rather than person's impairment
looks at removing barriers that restrict people's lives
92
medical model of disability
people are disabled by their impairments
these impairment should be fixed by medical or other tx
93
2 pieces of UK legistlation for disability
equality act 2010
disability discrimination act 2004
