nonsurgical therapy in-office local therapy Flashcards

1
Q

tissue breakdown is generally initiated at _

thus, additional oral hygiene tools/products other than regular toothbrush are necessary

A

interproximal sites

patient compliance plays a major role in short/long term success of the Tx

Q

Periodontal diseases

Destruction of PDL, resorption of the alveolar bone and migration of the JE along the root surface

changes in the morphology og gingival tissues, BOP, gingival recession, and or periodontal pocket formation

specific bacterial colonization within the subgingival area

A

Gingival inflammation and bleeding
Pocket formation

That is what disease is

As the pocket gets deep the flora changes to more disease microflora (gram negative) -
They have endotoxin like LPS

Q

Periodontal Diseases

_ produce biological molecules that may act directly on host tissue

_ produced by the host may cause tissue injury

A

periodontal pathogens produce biological molecules

inflammatory and immune mediators produced by the host may cause tissue injury

Q

Periodontal Therapy

~remove bacterial deposits from tooth surface
~shift the pathogenic microbiota to more health related flora
~decrease inflammation and probing depth

how

A

mechanical scaling and root planing

surgery

sometimes mechanical isn’t enough though

Q

limitations of SubG mechanical therapy

~bacterial migration from root surfaces not accessed by instrumentation
~bacteria can colonize gingival epithelial cells and connective tissues
~bacteria can live in the dentinal tubules - root planning opens tubules and pushes microbes into them
~apical migration from suprag plaque/other infected sites

A

Some bacteria and byproducts will penetrate into tissues

Cementum is like a sponge and absorbed that shit
We have to think more than just mechanical Tx

Specfic bacteria like AA
AA penetrates into soft tissue

Q

antimicrobial agents
~fight with bacteria and bacterial byproducts

~modify host response

A

Only one antimicrobial

We want to fight the bacteria and their byproducts and modify the host response
(get rid of bleeding and inflammed tissues)

Q

do we give systemic antibiotics for periodontal diseases

concerns?
~patient compliance
~side effects - GI
~development of bacterial resistance
~poor outcome due to low concentration in the pocket
A

We don’t give antibitoics to every patient-It has to be specific

Every time we scale and root plane We release bacteria into the blood

some types of periodontitis, periodontitis with secondary systemic involvement

Q

Host Modulatory agents - systemic

bisphosphonates
NSAID
low-does tetracyclines

A

Bisphosphonates - generally use this why they have bone related cancers - and side effect is jaw necrosis - if I do this procedure the wound may not heal
Will help reduce bone resorption
don’t quite use them yet

NSAID - good thing to control bleeding after getting rid of bacteria - as long as you take it works
As soon as you stop taking it, stops working

Tetracycline - works as host modifier agent of the host response

Q

incorporated into bone and incapacitates the osteoclast thereby reducing bone resorption

indicated for Tx of Paget’s Disease, hypercalcemia, osteoporosis, metastatic bone diseases

side effects include osteomalacia(softening of the bones) and allergic reactions

modest effect on bone density and little or no effect on attachement loss

A

bisphosphonates

modest effect on bone density and little or no effect on attachment loss

Q

inhibit the biosynthesis and release of prostaglandins in cells

side effects inclusde GI ulceration, allergic reactions, GI and renal toxicity

reduce gingival inflammation however effects on attachement levels are modest

A

NSAID

reduce gingival inflammation however effects on attachment levels are modest

DON’T USE TO TX, just help maybe

Q

Periostat - local low (sub-antimicrobial) dose of _ - 20mg

concentrates in GCF and uses cementum as reservior

inhibits the tissue destructive enzymes (MMP-8)
-Neutrophil collagenase, also known as matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) or PMNL collagenase (MNL-CL), is a collagen cleaving enzyme

tested adjunctively to SRP over 9 months
-increased attachment levels on average by 0.5mm, decreased PD and BOP

no resistance reported

A

doxycycline hyclate

daily For 3 months

A lot of sites with bleeding

Do nonsurgical tx with bleeding every where and no risk of developing antibiotic resistance

So low of a dose

Q

what is a PerioChip

A

Chlorhexidine 2.5mg disolvable gelatin matrix film/chip

Have to have a pocket to use the periochip

It won’t stay in in a swallow 5mm pocket

Have to do nonsurgical tx first and at the reval we might use

Before we decide to use this we have to do SRP again and then place this

Q

which local treatment is available here at the school

stat sig. reduction in probing depth

A

Minocycline - Arestin - PLA/PLGA powder

Special syrine - buy it with a little cup
Yellow little particles - feels like sand
After scaling - weill release into the pocket

Q

indication for local antimicrobial delivery

which stage of perio?

A

localized slight to moderate chronic periodontitis stage I and II, with limited amount of sites that are unresponsive to non-surgical therapy

greater than equal to 5mm probing depths

5-6mm probing deep have to be localized
Should be considered adjunctive therapy to SRP or will be malpractice
Have to do scaling again because Mechanical is limited and can’t get everything
Soft tissue loves this and will seal the little plaque that’s deep apically

Has to be adjunctive with SRP
Have to do SRP same appointment

Q

contraindications to local antimicrobial delivery

A

allergies to specific antimicrobial reagent

several sites/mouth with residual periodontal pockets following SRP

applications without performing SRP

17
Q

Chlorhexidine study

mean difference in probing depth after 6months was _mm

A

0.42mm

statistically significant

18
Q

site-specific vs complete dentition therapy which is better

A

Hygiene works better when you do the whole entire mouth and not just one local site

19
Q

is hydrogen peroxide recommended by the ada, yes or no and why

A

no

Soft tissue will look healthy but under there is bacteria - does not help - will silently mask

20
Q

localized non-responding sites and localized recurrent disease may be treated with _

A

locally delivered antimicrobials

21
Q

_ before the application of the local agent, and plaque control after therapy are essential for success

A

mechanical debridement
