Oral Diseses And Bpe Flashcards
What is bone score 0 mean ?
No pocketing no calculus all overhangs and no bleeding on probing
What does BPe score one mean
No pockets above 3.5 mm coloured bands remained totally visible no calculus or overhangs of fillings bleeding occurring after probing
What does BPe code 2 mean ?
No pockets above 3.5 mm coloured band remains totally visible supra and subgingival calculus and overhangs present
What does the Bpe code 3 mean
Pocket depth of 4 to 5 mm the coloured band is partly visible and calculus present and bleeding on probing
What does BPE code 4 mean
Pocket depths greater than 6 mm coloured band is not visible at all
What does BPE code star mean
Notice the presence of furcation along with bleeding on probing super and subgingival calculus
What are the main types of oral diseases
Dental Caries and chronic periodontal disease
What are waste products of oral bacteria
Acids
What does bacteria affect
Mineralised tissue strong crystal structures in the enamel and Dentine is demineralised by acid
What are the factors to develop in cavities
Carbohydrates bacteria week organic acids adverse time to attack
What produces acid
Use correct terminology
Streptococcus mutans
Lactobaccilli
Streptococcus sag is
How would you describe bacterial plaque or plaque biofilm
A sticky see-through substance and it attaches to keep bacteria on the teeth
Where does plaque sit
Stagnant areas
What does fire film turn acids into
Sugar
What to bacteria is make Caries
Streptococcus mutants and lactobacilli
What food is classed as protein
Meat fish dairy
What food is classed as fts
Vegetable oils and meet fat
What are classed as carbs
Natural sugars fibre from fruit fruit and vegetables plus processed artificial sugars
From food category what is the only one which will cause Caries
Artificial sugars
What does cariogenic foods mean
Foods that cause Caries
What does Intrinstic sugars mean
No added sugar to an item it was already there naturally
What does extrinsic sugars mean
Added sugar when the food was made such as lactose and honey are known as three sugars
What are free sugars
They are added at form by refined sugar added to tea three sugars are released in smoothies and sometimes added in manufacturing such as hidden sugar
What is dextrous
Sucrose glucose and it is the most damaging it instantly turns to acid and medications may have this in naturally
What is harmless to teeth
Milk extrinsic sugars such as lactose and intrinsic sugars such as raw fruit
Where can we find added sugars
Fruit smoothies dried fruit honey fruit juice and canned fruit
Explain acid formation
In 1 to 2 minutes it’s turned into acid acid lasts about 20 Minutes to 2 hours then demineralisation occurs at PH 5.5 or above then the pH in Slava buffers to slow this down and to make it stopThen the pH will return to 7 then natural healing and remilitarisation then we eat and it starts all over again
What are the sites of Caries
Fisher sealants
medial and distal areas
stagnant areas and contact points
What does a white spot lesion mean
It is an early sign of the carious lesion
What does a brown spot on a contact point of a tooth mean
This is remineralise area
Will a patient have a pain if Careys are in the enamel
No as there is no nerve tissue here
What is more likely to happen if Caries goes into the Dentine
Tooth fractures and holes
Where are odontoblast sells located
In the abdominal junction
When made to patient feel sensitivity
When the dental tubulars Are not sealed
