  • superinfection possible
  • allergies
  • resistance
44
Q

causes of antibiotics resistance

5

A
  • can be inactivated against non target orgaisms

  • may fail to penetrate beyond surface layer of biofilm
  • stress reponse to hostile environment denatures AB
45
Q

substantivity

A

persistence of action and ability to stick to target

how long agent works for

46
Q

substantivity depends on

A

maintenance of antimicrobial aactivey and slow neutralisation of antimicrobial activity

47
Q

chlorohexidine

A

antiseptic
bisbiguianide
dicationic action - one cation adsorbs to tooth/pellicle and other cation sticks on bacteria

in low conc causes inc cell permeability and at high conc causes cytoplasm precipitation (causing cell death)

48
Q

pre surgical mouthwash/aseptic technique
immunocompromised pt
limited manual dexterity/unable to perform OH
oral candidiasis
RAS
NUG
post- PMPR

bitter taste
staining
taste disturbance
mucosal erosion
parotid swelling

50
Q

successful perio features

A

BOP <10% - reduced
reduced probing detph - gain in clinical attachement via junctional epithelium
improve OH - reduced plaque and bleeding scores
no worsening in furcation scores
reduced or stabilised mobility

51
Q

aims of perio tx

A

arrest disease
regenerate lost tissue
maintain longterm perio health
prevent tooth loss
improve soft tissue consistency so easier management

52
Q

side effects of perio tx

A

recession
sensitvity
initial bleeding

53
Q

components of perio tx

A

risk factor managenent - smoking, diet, diabetes etc
OHI
PMPR - supra and sub
removal of PRFs
re-eval

54
Q

when to re-eval

A

8-12 weeks after PMPR

most healing occurs at 6 weeks
longer allows better healing and replacement of junction epithelium

55
Q

reasons why PMPR may fail

A
  • inadequate operator technique
  • blunt instrument
  • pt not engaging with OHI regime
  • no correction of risk factors - smoking, poorly controlled diabetes
  • not debriding enitre pocket anatomy - unable to access
  • poor visiualisation of pocket meaning unable to assess when successful cleared pocket - not enough suction
