Perio Flashcards
What does a BPE score 0 mean
No pockets
No calculus/overhangs
No BOP
What does a BPE score 1 mean
No pockets
No calculus/overhangs
BOP
What does a BPE score 2 mean
No pockets
Supra or subgingival calculus/overhangs
What does a BPE score 3 mean
Probing depth 3.5-5.5 mm
What does a BPE score 4 mean
Probing depth above 5.5 mm
What does * mean for perio
Furcation involvement meaning you can see where the roots diverge
Which teeth are assessed in sillness and loe
UR6, UR2, UL4, LR4, LL2, LL6
How does sillness and Loe score the teeth examined
They are added and divided by 4 then divided by 6 (the number of teeth’s examined)
What does a score of 0 in sillness and loe mean
No plaque
What does a score of 1 mean in sillness and loe
Film visible only by removal with probe
What does a score of 2 mean in sillness and loe
Moderate accumulation of plaque at the gingival margin visible to the naked eye
What does a score 3 mean in sillness and loe
Heavy accumulations of plaque easily visible in the gingival crevice and interdentally
How does the modified turesky technique measure perio
0 to 5 is assigned to buccal and lingual non restored surface of all the teeth expect third molars
How is an index determined for the modified turesky technique
By dividing the total score by the number of surfaces (max 56)
How do you calculate the index with the O’Leary technique
Total number of tooth surfaces with stained plaque recorded DIVIDED BY the total number of surfaces present TIMES 100 = %
What does a mobility score 0 mean
No detectable movement above 0.2mm
What does a mobility score 1 mean
Horizontal mobility between 0.2 and 0.5 mm
What does a mobility score 2 mean
Movement 0.5 - 1 mm
What does a mobility score 3 mean
Above 1 mm or vertical displacement
What does furcation grading 1 mean
Less than 3mm horizontal probing
What does furcation grading 2 mean
Grater than 3mm but not through
What does furcation grading 3 mean
Through and through involvement
What is gingivitis
Reversible inflammation of gingival with no accompanying destruction of periodontal tissues
Why does gingivitis occur
Most commonly develops in response to plaque adherent to tooth surfaces or adjacent restorations
May occur in relation to hormonal disturbances
How long can it take for gingivitis to occur
21 days
What is periodontitis
Bacterially induced, immune mediated inflammatory diseases of tissues supporting teeth
What does periodontitis destroy
PDL and alveolar bone
How many bacterial species are there in the human oral microbiome
Nearly 800
What make up the 60% pioneer bacteria
Streptococcus species
What are 3 other pioneer bacteria
Actinomyces
Veillonella
Neisseria
List 5 examples of host susceptibility to perio
Gene polymorphism
PMN defects
Smoking
Diabetes
Immunosuppression
What does plaque consist of
Diverse population of micro organisms embedded in extracellular matrix polymers
What is calculus
Calcified deposit found on surfaces of teeth covered by biofilm of plaque calcium and phosphate crystals appear
What are the 4 different types of calcium phosphate crystal
Octacalcium phosphate
Hydroxyapatite
Whitlockite
Brushite
How long does it take for supragingival calculus to form
Within 12 days
What is supragingival calculus
About gingavae
Builds in creamy amorphous layers particularly lingually around lower incisors and buccal on maxillary molars near salivary duct openings
