OMS- ABGD Flashcards
Which local anesthetics do
you use?
0.5% marcaine, 1:200k epi
2% Lidocaine, 1:100k epi
4% Articaine, 1:100k epi
3% carbocaine plain
When should a coronectomy
be done?
Indications for removal of crown of
impacted tooth because the roots
are intimately contacting the IAN
What are the signs of IAN and
tooth involvement?
Darkening of the root when it crosses the IAN
Deflection of roots in area of canal
Narrowing of root implying perforation or grooving by the nerve
Bifid root apex
Interruption of cortical (white lines) of IAN
Diversion of canal
Narrowing of canal
Removing a tuberosity: if it’s
completely detached; do you reattach
it, what about if you just hear a crack?
-If completely cracked: do not reattach
-If crack is heard and tooth is out: apply pressure, close flap, suture
Oral Cancer SCC Stage 4…5 year survival?
Oral Cavity: 27%
Lip: 47%
Much better prognosis for HPV related neck mass
What are high risk sites for
SCC?
Tongue:
-posterior and lateral border-65% of time
-more than 50% of intraoral cancers
-Dorsum rarely affected
Floor of mouth:
-35% of intraoral SCC
-usually begins as leukoplakia or erythroleukoplakia
Posterior Oral Cavity/oropharynx:
-HPV related
What type of pain meds for moderate surgery and why?
Motrin: anti-inflammatory
Tylenol: controls pain
What happens if you misplace a tooth in the retromylohyoid area?
-Attempt to “milk” it into socket
-CBCT to locate
-Consider lingual flap for exposure
-May need extra oral incision if significant inferior displacement
-Possible ABOs
-Takes 1 week to fibrose
-Refer
What do you do in a situation where you are having problems stopping bleeding?
-Pressure
-Cautery
-Sutures
-Local Vasoconstriction
-Bone: pressure, bone wax, burnishing
Hemostatics:
-Gelfoam (gelatin sponge)
-Avitene (bovine collagen)
-Surgicel (cellulose)-do NOT use near nerve
-Topical thrombin
-Amicar (aminocaproic acid)
-Teabag (tranaxemic acid)
What could make a tooth harder to extract?
-Hard/soft tissue coverage
-angulation
-patient age
What ABX for sinus perforation?
Augmentin
What do you do if there is a sinus perforation?
<2mm:
-may spontaneously heal
-Consider closing with gelfoam/collaplug
-Figure 8 sutures
2-6mm:
-same as above
> 6mm:
-local flap, buccal advancement flap or buccal fad pad graft
Sinus Precautions:
-ALL CASES for 2 weeks
-No nose blowing, sneeze with mouth open
-Sudafed (30mg q6h)
-Afrin (nasal spray no more than 3 days)
-ABOs- Augmentin (875mg every 12 hours)
What to do if there is a tooth misplaced in the sinus?
-CBCT to locate
-Consider Caldwell Luck for exposure
-Possible ABOs
-Takes 1 week to Fibrose
-Refer
Fenestration and dehiscence
Fenestration: window
Dehiscence: split open from FG to apical (think door)
pKa protein binding & Lipid binding
What do these mean in regards to duration, onset with LA?
- pKa determines lipid transport
- uncharged molecule of anesthetic transports through nerve sheath
- charged molecule binds to Na channel receptor
- pKa = pH which molecule is charged
- lower pKa anesthetic has better chance of diffusing through the nerve
lipid solubility/binding with lipid molecules enhances potency and onset…ie marcaine binds better with lipids which enhance its clearance
Fascial Spaces Infections and what teeth are associated: Buccal
buccal: max molar and mand PM
Fascial Spaces Infections and what teeth are associated: Canine
Where do the apices extend past?
max canine, PM, lats (rare): extend superior to insertion of levator anguli oris
Fascial Spaces Infections and what teeth are associated: Sublingual
Around what muscle are the apices?
Sublingual: root apices SUPERIOR to insertion of mylohyoid M
