Q

facultative anaerobes

A

can live with or without oxygen

22
Q

Can you use ultrasonic instruments with active infectious disease pts?

A

No. aerosols created by instruments spread the disease (diabetes and deep pockets require ultrasonic)

23
Q

What boney defects are goof candidates for bone grafting?

A

Defects with 2 or 3 walls

24
Q

Full thickness flap includes stripping what off the bone?

A

all of the soft tissue (epithelium, connective tissue and periosteum)

25
Q

Is a gingivectomy indicated to eliminate deep pockets?

A

No. Only indicated for pts having excessive gingival exposure

26
Q

describe gingivectomy. what is it used for?

A

periodontal surgery that is used for excision of gingiva. How much is removed is determined by perio probe. the extent of gingivectomy may be equal or apical to teh bottom of the periodontal pocket AS LONG as the termination point is ABOVE the mucogingival junction

Used for:

1) treat supraboney periodontal pockets
2) gingival enlargement/hypertrophy
3) supraboney periodontal abscesses
4) provide visibility and accessibility for calculus removal/cleaning

27
Q

Partila thickness flaps include? Used for what

A

include the epithelium and connective tissue, while the periosteum is left attached to the bone. Used for free gingival grafts and bone dehiscence or fenestration is present

28
Q

name a magnetostrictive ultrasonic instrument?

A

Cavitron and Titin… used to remove heavy calc and stain via an elliptical motion

29
Q

How do Cavitrons work?

A

1) Lavage - flushes the pocket, hard to reach areas
2) Cavitation -ultrasonic movement creates air bubbles that knock deposits off tooth
3) Vibration - mechanically removes deposits/debris
4) Acoustic turbulance - agitation observed in fluids by mechanical vibrations that disrupts bacterial cell walls

30
Q

How are piezo instruments different from cavitons?

A

they use a linear motion to create a back and forth motion to create their ultrasonic movement (instead of an ovoid motion like cavitrons)

31
Q

what is chlorhexidine?

A

an antiseptic rinse, it does NOT remove dead tissue

32
Q

what is iodine 1% tincture used for? what is another name

A

aka Lugol solution. Great wide spectrum antiseptic agent that is used a rinse pre and post surgeries

33
Q

Uses of low concentration hydrogen peroxide

A

3% hydrogen peroxide debrids intraoral lesions of dead tissue and infection, a mild concentration provides antimicrobial properties through the realease of oxygen as it is applied to the infected wound

34
Q

Uses of high concentration hydrogen peroxide

A

used as a bleaching agent to disinfectant in hospitals and water waste management

35
Q

why is prolonged hydrogen peroxide not advised?

A

harm and irritation of oral tissues

36
Q

osseous VS resective VS regenerative surgeries

A

osseous: includes recontouring of both hard and soft tissues
resective: include gingivectomy and flap surgeries
regenerative: include grafting an use of barrier membranes

37
Q

ultrasonic dental scalers vs ultrasonic cleaners

A

scalers use vibration and pulsation to break down mineralized plaque (calculus)

cleaners produce cavitation (movement creating tiny vacuum bubbles)

38
Q

what is the main goal of resective or regenerative surgery for perio therapy?

A

reduce pocket depths

39
Q

describe how free gingival grafts receive nutrients

A

from the recipient site through plasmatic diffusion from underlying connective tissue

  • no vascular connection between recipient site and graft in first 24 hours. the forming of capillary anastomoses provides the source of nutrients for FGG 3 days post-surgery
    • experience DEGENERATION in first few days due to lack of direct blood supply ** immobilization of graft will help with blood vessel formation
40
Q

bacteria that are considered periodontal pathogens?

A 
G-
fusiform bacteria
spirochetes
anaerobic
members of red complex
41
Q

purpose of barrier or Teflon membranes?

A

placed to allow cultivation and growth of new attachments without any interference from the long junctional epithelium

42
Q

relationship between pocket depth and oral hygiene?

A

indirect. wen pocket depth is decreased, effective oral hygiene measures increase

43
Q

ostectomy VS osteoplasty

A

ostectomy: removes tooth SUPPORTING bone to help reduce or eliminate periodontal pockets
osteoplasty: removes NON-supporting bone

44
Q

ostectomy or osteoplasty performed first?

A

osteoplasty. This allows for the most conservative removal of bundle bone (supporting bone) around teeth

45
Q

guided tissue regeneration procedures require use of barrier membranes WHY? What do they do?

A

barrier membranes guide/direct the growth of newly forming bone and soft tissue. They stop the possible migration of epithelial calls toward the newly formed cementum layer, thus preventing the formation of long junctional epithelium (Ex: Teflon)

46
Q

purpose of free gingival graft? harvested from where?

A

harvested from palatal area, purpose to increase keratinzised gingival tissue of an implant material or to cover up areas of gingival recession

47
Q

3 types of bone allografts

A

1) fresh and fresh frozen bone
2) freeze dried bone allograft (FDBA) often this
3) Demineralized freeze dried bone allograft (DFDBA)

48
Q

1) allograft
2) autograft
3) alloplasts
4) xenografts
5) isografts

A

1) allograft - person to ANOTHER different person
2) autograft - taken from one part of body and transferred to another area of same body
3) alloplasts or synthetic - inert or non-reactice foreign materials that are transplanted or implanted inside the body (hydroxyapatite or different polymers like polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA))
4) xenografts - one species to another species (bovine)
5) isografts - between two identical poeple (monozygotic twins)

49
Q

What is a logical treatment for ANUG?

A

antibiotics such as penicillin and metronidazole… latest txt include SRP and topical chlorhexidine gluconate rinses

50
Q

name for dry socket? How do you get it?

A

acute alveolar osteitis. Occurs after traumatic extraction and accidental early dislodgement of blood clot

51
Q

treatment for acute alveolar osteitis?

A

rinsing the affected socket with warm saline solution and placement of a sponge with antiseptic dressing
NOT systemic antibiotics*****

52
Q

how many walls does a crater defect have?

A

2

53
Q

capillary inosculation

A

for a free gingival graft the formation of new capillaries from the recipient site to the donor site will only occurs within two to 3 days after the surgical procedure in the process known as capillary inosculaition

54
Q

the incidence and severity of chronic inflammatory periodontal disease are easily lessened by?

A

regular proper oral hygiene
