Q

HBV titers

A
  • No booster (Another vaccine as seen with Tb and Diphtheria every 10 years) is required, but titers are
  • Titers (Blood test for antibodies) needed 1-2 months post vaccine
  • Vaccine itself requires 3 shots:
    If the series was interrupted after dose 1, continue to dose 2
    Dose 1 and 3 should be administered 16 week apart
    Dose 2 and 3 should be administered 8 weeks apart
    If dose 3 is delayed, it should be administered ASAP
  • If the titer shows negative ab’s:
    Repeat the vaccine series and re-titer 1-2 months post dose 3 –> If person is still negative, they are labeled a non-responder and may have chronic HBV infection –> If no chronic HBC infection, they must be counseled on how to receive Immunoglobulin PROPHYLAXIS for at risk exposures.

Hep B vaccines are mandated by OSHA.

Q

Heat sterilization methods

A

All heat inactivation of proteins/enzymes:

  1. Moist Heat kills via denaturation (Autoclave 250F, 15 PSI, 20 minutes OR 270F, 30 PSI, 8 minutes) = short cycle = risk erosion of metal and dulling products
  2. Dry Heat kills via protein coagulation (Dry Heat Oven 320F for 120 minutes OR 340F for 60 minutes) = long cycle time = not suitable for handpieces = protects against corrosion and dulling (endo files/broaches, burs)
  3. Chemical vapor sterilization (270F, 20 PSI, 20-40 minutes)
    - Utilizes organic solvents (acetone, ketone, alcohol formaldehyde) for vapor, not water (instruments must be completely dry prior to process)
    - PROs: leads to NO corrosion or NO dulling of instruments!
    - CONs: heat sensitive products will be damaged, can’t sterilize liquids)
  4. Glass Bead sterilizer (15 sec, 220 C or 428 F)
    - Endo files
    - NOTE: gp endo points in 5.25% NaOCl, 1 min

18
Q

Instrument Classification

A
  1. Critical = penetrate ST or bone = sterilized! (forceps)
  2. Semi-Critical = contact but no penetration = sterilized! (burs, mirror, x-ray instruments)
  3. Non-critical = do not touch mucuous membranes = intermediate to low level disinfectant
19
Q

Fluoride

A

Supplements

  • via Rx only
  • Meant only for non-fluoridated areas with children aged 6 months to 16 years
  • Mouthrinse (popular in school) = 0.2% NaF > 0.05% NaF
  • Chew (30 sec chew, 30 sec swish, then swallow = systemic + topical fluoride)

Gel

  • 1.23 % Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride is most common form (pH = 3.0, NaF + Orthophosphoric acid)
  • 0.4% stannous fluoride
  • 1.0% NaF

Water

  • Community: 0.7-1.2 ppm
  • School Water: 4.5 times that (balances time children are not in school)

Reduces caries 20-30% over 12 years

(1pp means 1 mg go Fl in 1 Liter of H20)

20
Q

American Disabilities Act

A
  • 1990
  • federal civil rights protection
  • work or public entry access
  • Must have a record of disability (impairment that substantially limits major life activities)
  • ADA protects individuals whom are ASSOCIATED with HIV people
21
Q

ADA Code of Ethics

A
  1. Veracity = truth
  2. Autonomy = self governance = confidentiality
  3. Justice = fairness
  4. Non-malfecience = to do no harm
  5. Beneficence = to do good = ideal tx.
22
Q

Dependent vs Independent variable

A

X = 2y + 3z
X is dependent (value depends on others)
Y and Z are independent (values will determine others)

23
Q

Public Health Goal

A

Most important concept is community organization, NOT prevention of disease.

24
Q

Public Health rates

A

Growth rate = birth:death ratio
Birth rate = natality
Death rate = mortality
Attack rate = number of cases developing in a population hat is exposed to an infection

Index case = patient zero

25
Q

Incidence vs Prevalence

A

Incidence = number of new cases with disease = rate
Prevalence = proportion with disease at a given time = %
*prevalence is most important in assessing need and impact

Non-Communicable disease = normal oral flora causing harm to someone (via reservoir)

26
Q

Child Abuse

A
  • most common under 3 y/o

Face 68%
Eyes 45%
Neck 12%

27
Q

Prevention Levels

A 
Primary = before it occurs (sealants)
Secondary = controlling disease after it occurs
Tertiary = limiting disability from the disease or rehab (dentures)
28
Q

Specificity vs Sensitivity

A 
Sensitivity = WITH disease who are correctly classified as having the disease = TP, FN
Specificity = without disease who are correctly classified as having the disease = TN, FP
29
Q

Define:

  1. p value
  2. correlation of coefficient
  3. multiple regression
  4. chi square
  5. t-test
A
  1. P-value = validity of the hypothesis = 0.05
  2. Correlation coefficient = quantifies the relationship between values
  3. Multiple regression = linear relationship between a dependent and 2+ independent variables
  4. Chi square = compare observed data with expected data
  5. T-test = statistical difference between two means
30
Q
  1. Caries Index
  2. Plaque Index
  3. Gingival Index (GI)
  4. Periodontal Index (PI) / Periodontal Disease Index (PDI)
  5. Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN)
  6. Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (OHI-S)
A
  1. DMFT / DMFS / deft (pedo) = caries index
    - irreversible index
    - DISADVANT: not related to # of teeth at risk; teeth may be lost due to other reasons than decay; not used for root caries or sealed teeth

The following are reversible: BOP, plaque

  1. Must be used with the gingival index
    - 0-3 scale (0 has no plaque)
    - Scores dependent on thickness of plaque at FGM, not coronal aspect of tooth
    - SCORE: Total (B,L,M,D) / 4
  2. Gingival Index = Measures only gingival inflammation
  3. PI/PDI = Gingivitis + periodontitis (into 1 score)
    PI measures 2 levels of each gingivitis and perio
    PDI measures 3 levels of gingivitis (extent/severity) and perio
  4. CPITN = incidence and treatment needs of the community
  5. OHI-S = Debris index + Calculus index
31
Q

Dental fear vs anxiety

A 
Fear = specific stimulus = most occur during childhood = not anticipating, but occurs when the stimulus is present = response to imminent danger
Anxiety = not specific (apprehension) = response to no danger
Phobia = occurs with intense anxiety
Stress = Body's response to danger

Behavior is determined, purposeful activity
To change attitude, one must first change behavior

32
Q

Health Belief Model

A
  • individuals act to prevent disease only when they are susceptible to it
  • Predicts health behaviors by focusing on attitudes and beliefs of people
  • Developed when people did not use free TB screenings
33
Q

Types of Fluoride

A
  1. 4% SnF2
    - pH = 2.1
    - radiation patients
    - RISK: staining, mucosal burn

Acidulated Fluoride (APF)

  • 1.23% NaF + ortho acid
  • pH = 3.5
  • most common in office use

SnF2 and APF remove glaze from resin, porcelain and GI which causes stains. Use neutral NaF.

  1. 5% NaF
    - pH = 9.2 (only basic one)
    - Most common OTC (toothpaste)
    - Best for porcelain, resin, GI
34
Q

Social Cognitive Theory

A

Behaviors learned through observation and motivation through positive reinforcement

35
Q

Behavior Theory (ABC model)

A

A = trigger antecedents
B = behavior
C = consequences
Behavior is preceded by antecedents and followed by consequence

36
Q

Stages of Change Model (SCM)

A

change occurs in progressive steps

  1. pre-contemplation
  2. contemplation
  3. preparation
  4. action/will power/change
  5. maintenance
  6. relapse
37
Q

Types of conditioning for behavior modification

A

AKA behavior therapy = psychotherapy to modify observable, maladjusted patterns of behavior by the substitution of a new response to a given stimulus

Techniques for modifying Behavior

  1. Classical conditioning = one stimulus leads to a response = Ex: Pavlovian Dog, white coat syndrome
  2. Operant conditioning = instrumental conditioning = rewards and punishment = positive or negative reinforcement, punishment or extinction
  3. Aversive conditioning = using punishment to stop unwanted behavior = Ex: HOME
  4. Modeling = individuals ascertain how to act by observing another person
  5. Systemic desensitization = Used for phobias and aversions = teachers a person to replace anxiety with relaxation when the stimulus is present.

Most realistic approach to manage a difficult child is through re-conditioning.

38
Q

Insurance

A 
PPO = reduced fee for service = pre-negotiated fees to be a preferred provider 
HMO = capitation plan = dentist paid on a fixed, monthly income 
Fee-for-service = out of pocket = main payment for dentistry = 56% of all dental expenses paid this way

Deductible = out of pocket before insurance kicks in
Co-payment = cost share for every office visit
Co-insurance = fixed percentage of a co-payment
Coordination of benefits = used when more than 1 insurance plan is used
Balance billing = illegal = fills in the gap as to what insurance covers

39
Q

Study types

A

Cross section = exposure + disease outcome at same point in time

Case control = disease present and results

Cohort = group followed over time to see if association exists between exposure and disease development

40
Q

Quality assurance vs assessment

A 
Assessment = measurement of quality of care
Assurance = measurement, action and implementation of the quality of care
