Oral Diagnosis, Pathology & Medicine Flashcards
When is a panorex indicated?
New pt- child with transitional dentition or adolescent with permanent dentition
When is a FMX indicated?
Adolescent with permanent dentition generalized dental disease or hx of extensive tx
When do you take bw in a high risk child/adolescent
6-12mo
primary teeth/transitional dentition takes 1 year for caries to progress from outer enamel to inner enamel so 6-12 mos high risk children & transitional dent 12-24 mos low risk children & transitional
Permanent teeth takes 3 years for caries to progress from outer to inner enamel (but immature teeth can have quicker progression) so 18-36 months low risk adolescent 6-18 months high risk adult 24-36 months low risk adult
When do you take BWX in a low risk child?
12-24 mo
When do you take bw in a low risk adolescent?
18-36
When do you take bw in a high risk adult?
6-18mo
When do you take bw in a low risk adult?
24-36mo
Rank in order of highest to lowest radiation dosage:chest xray4 BWXPanoramicupper GI series
Upper GI series (2.4 msV) Chest X-ray (.08) Panorex 4 BWX (.038 msV) Panorex is about = to 4 intraoral images CBCT about 5-16x greater than panorex **0.15 mSv for FMX**
The safest place to stand (minimum exposure site) is
____ degrees from the primary beam as it (enters/exits) patient.
Maximum scatter site is ____ degrees from the primary beam (entering/exiting) patient
90-180o
entering
At what vertical angle should BWX be exposed?
+8 to +10 degrees
What anomalies result from problems in initiation?
tooth #
i.e. supernumerary teeth, anodontia
What anomalies result from problems in proliferation?
Size (micro/macrodontia), proportion, number, twinning
Handbook says: p. 28
deficient development in proliferation results in:
hypodontia, congenital absence, fusion;
excessive development in proliferation results in:
natal teeth, Epithelial rest, gemination
Prolif in bud, cap, bell, late bell
What anomalies result from problems in histodifferentiation?
enamel (AI type I hypoplastic),
dentin (DI)
Histo part of cap, bell, late bell
What anomalies result from problems in morphodifferentiation?
Size and shape
e.g.
Deficient devo:
peg lateral, mulberry molars, Hutchinson incisors, microdontia;
Excessive devo:
Carabelli cusp, macrodontia, tuberculated cusps, taurodontism, dens invaginatus
(morpho part of bud, cap, bell, late bell)
What anomalies result from problems in apposition?
Enamel hypoplasia,
dentin dysplasia;
hypercementosis,
enamel pearls,
odontoma
ghost teeth (regional odontodysplasia)
hypophosphatasia
What anomalies result from problems in mineralization and maturation?
AI types II, III, IV
fluorosis
localized hypomineralization
interglobular dentin
sclerotic dentin
Hyper and hypodontia are anomalies of what histologic stages?
Initiation and proliferation
- hyperdontia
- hypodontia
- hypohyperdontia
Generalized fluorosis or hypoplasia is a disorder of what developmental stage?
mineralization
Twinning/gemination is a disorder of what developmental stage?
Proliferation
Gemination/fusion occurs with what frequency?
- 5 – 2.5% primary
- 5% permanent
Anomalies in size and conjoined teeth occur in what stages of histologic development?
- *Proliferation and Morphodifferentiation**
- micro/macrodontia
- *Proliferation**
- gemination
- fusion
- twinning
- concrescence
Name some anomalies that result from problems in morphodifferentiation?
Size & Shape
- dens in dente (dens invaginatus)
- dens evaginatus, talon cusp
- taurodontism
- dilaceration
What are the 3 types of dens evaginatus?
I (talon)
II (semitalon)
III (trace talon)
