Q

Basal cells general features

A

§ Single layer of cub. Cells § Least diffrentiated § Promenant mitotic activity which give rise to ü stem cells go through the cells cycle slowly and produce basal cells
ü Amplyfing cells which increase the number of cells avialable for maturation
§ Active Pr. Synthesis cells ü Tonofilaments aggregate to form tonofiblriles

A

Cells are..
o Flatter, Wider, larger & with less organelles o More maturation o Contains more tonofilaments o The nuclei show signs of degeneration & pyknosis.
§ Reduced rates of Pr. Synthesis. Prs such as involucrin & loricrin help to increase the thickness of the cell membrane and forming a resistant cornified cell envelope

Keratohyaline granules ü basophilic granules ü Contains pro-filaggrin
(precursor of the protein filaggrin) which plays an important role in binding keratin filaments together

Q

Function of rougea area

A

It plays a part in speech o During denture processing it function as secondary stress bearing area
o In fronsic dentistry, it can be used to idinitfy individulas as it is unique like fingure prints

20
Q

Muco ging line in palate?

A

• On the palate, there is no sharp distinction between the gingiva and the peripheral palatal mucosa

21
Q

type of K of gingiva

A

q Para-keratinized 75% q Ortho- keratinized 15% q Non-keratinized 10%

22
Q

Free ging width

A

0.5 to 1.5

23
Q

Sulcus depth in various occasions

A

It is under absolute normal conditions or Germfree animals, its depth is about 0 mm
• In normal healthy individuals, the depth of gingival sulcus is 1.8 to 2 mm.

24
Q

Inflammatory cells and sulcular epithelium

A

It is lined by non- keratinized epithelium that permit some inflammatory cells

25
Q

Attached gingival width

A

Width of the attached gingiva in incisors region is 3.5-4.5mm & in the premolar region is 1.9 mm

26
Q

Attached ging is wider in …

A

ü The width of attached gingiva increase with age and in super-erupted teeth

27
Q

Factors affecting stippling

A
  • More buccal than lingual
  • more in males
  • absent in infants and old age
  • inflammation
28
Q

Terminology of parts of interdental gingiva

A

The depression in gingiva forms vertical folds called interdental grooves
o Col In between the buccal and lingual peaks of interdental gingiva

29
Q

Incision in musticatory mucosa?

A

Incisional wound doesn’t create gap

30
Q

Vestibular mucosa

A

The mucosa of the vestibule is thin, non-keratinized
o Loosely textured allowing free movement of the cheek and lips.
o Median and lateral labial fermium are folds of mucous membrane contains C.T without muscles fibers

A

Skin
Vermilion zone
Intermediate zone
Labial mucosa

36
Q

Definition of suckling pad

A

In infants the intermediate zone is thickened and

appears white, which represents an adaptation to suckling called the suckling pad.

37
Q

Vermilion border age change

A

In young people this border is demarcated sharply, but as a person is exposed to ultraviolet radiation, the border becomes diffuse and poorly defined.

38
Q

Mucogingival junction clinical identification

A

This junction is identified clinically by Ø A slight indentation called the mucogingival

39
Q

Junctional epi histology

A

Ø Epithelium.. q Nonk. St. sq. epith. q Basal cell layer I. Single layer of cuboidal cells II. Attached to each other by desmosomes & to the basal lamina by hemi-desmosomes.
q Supra-basal and superficial cells a) Polyhedral and become spindle or flattened at the tooth surface.
b) Obliquely directed to reach tooth surface parallel to it.
c) The cells form 3-4 layers apically and increased to 15-30 layers coronally.
d) Prominent intercellular spaces.

Ø Basal lamina.. q External basal lamina i. Regular basal lamina formed of lamina lucida and lamina densa.
ii. Interface the lamina propria of the gingiva iii. Basal cell layer resting on the external basal lamina
q Internal basal lamina i. Binds to hard tissue ii. Supra-basal cells resting on the internal basal lamina

A

-high turn over rate 2to 6 days
-rapid division
- large inter cellular spaces
Contain macrophages lymphocytes and plasma cells
-Less desmosomes and tonofilaments

- large cytoplasm with prominent golgi and rer

41
Q

Zones of j.e

A

Junctional epithelium is divided into three zones

  1. Coronal zone is highly semipermeable and allows entry of toxins and passage of gingival fluid into the sulcus.
  2. Middle zone is an adhesive zone (Attachment epithelium).
  3. Apical zone has a proliferative capacity to replace shaded cells of the junctional epithelium.
42
Q

Integrity of the dento-gingival junction

function

A
  1. Acts as a barrier against plaque bacteria
  2. Allow the following to gain access to the gingival margin o Gingival fluids o Inflammatory cells o Immune host defense
  3. High rate of turn over o Fast repair
43
Q

and once the tip of crown erupt the REE is called primary attachment epith

When the REE has disappeared, the primary attachment epithelium is replaced by a secondary attachment epithelium

44
Q

Features of stage 3 of djg shift

A

q This is not a passive manifestation. The epithelium keeps shifting along tooth surface, and no longer remains at the CEJ
q This is a slow and not a continuous process, which is an effort by the body to maintain the integrity of the dento-gingival junction
