Q

S/s of advanced osteoarthritis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ)

A
  1. Tendency toward prognathism
  2. Flattening of articular surface
  3. Crepitus
  4. Antegonial notching

** crepitus, flattening of the articular surface of the condyle, limited jaw movement, and pain on mouth opening.**

** TMJ arthritis CLD NOT cause apertognathia, which is the dental malocclusion where the posterior teeth occlude prematurely, resulting in an anterior open bite.***

Q

T/F. No obvious TMJ pathology evident on their pantomograph ( PANO) is characteristic of TMJ

A

TRUE.

PANs are not useful when diagnosing TMJ pain/dysfunction disorders because only hard tissues are visible, so the relation of the condylar head to the mandibular fossa and articular tubercle are also often distorted.

Q

Nitrous is :

A
  1. It is heavier than air.
  2. It alters cardiac output minimally.
  3. It is not significantly metabolized.

Nitrous oxide gas is used to provide anesthesia, anxiolysis, and vasodilation (for IV placement). It is stable and combustible but does not explode.

Nitrous oxide sedation is very safe and effective. Its effects in the body are immediately removed once the nitrous oxide gas is completely expired by the patient, making anesthetic recovery time faster.
