Oral Medicine Flashcards
When is antibiotic prophylaxis recommended?
- Previous hx of infective endocarditis
- Prosthetic heart valve or heart valve repair w/prosthetic material
- Heart transplant w/valvular regurgitation
- Reapired congenital heart defect w/residual shunts or valvular regurgitation
- Unrepaired cyanotic heart diseases
Peds:
* completely repaired congenital heart defect w/prosthetic material–>Antibiotics for 1st 6 months after sx.
When scenarios should antibiotic prophylaxis be used?
Dental Procedures:
* Manipulation of gingival tissue or periapical region or perforation of oral mucosa
* ext, cleaning, SRP, biopsy, sutures, probing

* Cancer chemotherapy
* Hx of H&N radiation
* RA w/prednisone>10mg/day
* SCID
* Autoimmune disease (SLE, juvenile arthritis)
Hyperglycemic states (Uncontrolled diabetes)
* Hba1c> 8%
* Random blood glucose > 200 mg/dL
HTN Categories
Stage 1: 1 medication
Stage 2: 2 meds from different drug classes
Hypertensive crisis: Hospitalization if signs of organ damage
Oral Manifestations of HTN
Dry mouth, taste changes and ulcerations related to HTN meds
Gingival Hyperplasia
ANgioedema
Gingival Bleeding
Diabetes Mellitus
Leads to High blood glucose
* body cannot produce or react to insulin
* Polydipsia (thirsty), Polyphagia (hungry), and polyuria (urinate a lot)
Diabetes Insipidus
Kidneys can’t retain water
* can’t produce or react to ADH
* Polydipsia, polyuria
Type 1 Diabetes
- Juvenile onset
- insulin dependent (Autoimmune- Kills b cells that make insulin)
- Insulin Deficiency
- Ketone Breath
- No way to prevent
- All cases require insulin injections
Type 2 Diabetes
- Adult onset
- non-insulin dependent
- Insulin Resistance
- Most cases can be prevented
- Late stage cases require insulin injections
Blood Glucose Measurement
Measures glucose conc. in a blood sample
Varies throughout the day
HbA1c measurement
Measures glycosylated hemoglobin
Stable for 3 months
* life cycle of blood cell
want under 7%
Diabetic vs Prediabetic vs Normal:
* A1c Test
* Fasting Blood sugar test
* Glucose Tolerance Test
Medications used for Type 1 diabetes
Insulin
* rapid Acting: Lispro, Aspart, Glulisine
* Short acting: Human insulin
* Intermediate acting: NPH
* Long-acting: Determir, glargine
Medications used for Type 2 Diabetes
Sulfonylurea: 30 mins b4 meals
Biguanide: Taken w/ meals
DP4 inhibitor: -liptan
Thiazolidinedione: -litazone
SGLT3 inhibitor: Liflozin
Hypoglycemia
COLD AND CLAMMY NEED SOME CANDY
TIRED:
* Tachycardia
* Irritability
* Restlessness
* Excessive Hunger
* Diaphoresis (Sweating)
Blood sugar < 70 mg/dL
Hyperglycemia
HOT AND DRY SUGAR HIGH
SINFUL:
* Sweet breath (ketone breath)
* Increased Thirst
* Nausea & Vomitting
* Frequent
* Urination (Polyuria)
* Loss of clear vision
Fasting Blood sugar >/= 126 or
Post-prandial >/= 200
Can lead to life threatening complications:
* Diabetic ketoacidosis
* Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state
Patient with diabetes is undergoing general anesthesia. what do you do?
Severe diabetes should not if possible
Well controlled can but recommend:
* Fasting at midnight
* use only 1/2 insulin dose
