perio exam 2: ging diseases 1 Flashcards
is ging infmm always from an accumulation of pq around tooth surface?
NO!
desquamative gingivitis also
desquamative gingivitis (i think this implies ging from stuff not pq) 6 ex’s are…
- sp B origin
- viral origin
- fungal origin
- genetic origin
- systemic origin
- trauma
- sp B origin-general info
infective ging and stomatitis (what’s diff? latter=wiki says mouth and lips)
desquamative gingivitis
wiki “Unlike plaque-induced inflammation of the gums (normal marginal gingivitis), desquamative gingivitis extends beyond the marginal gingiva, involving the full width of the gingiva and sometimes the alveolar mucosa.[3]”
bacteria involved with sp B origin ging
Neisseria ginorrhea, Treponema pallidum, streps, mycobacterium chelonae
with sp B origin ging, lesions are accompanied by lesions elsewhere in the body. t/f
with sp B origin ging, lesions may or may not be accompanied by lesions elsewhere in the body
sp B origin ging: clinical presentation
variations:
fiery red edematous painful ulcerations
asymptomatic chancres, mucous patches, atypical non-ulcerated, highly inflamed ging
sp B origin ging: diagnosis
biopsy or microiological exam
viral origin
herpes simplex 1* &2 or varicella zoster
*most often 1
how does primary hepatic gingvostomatitis occur?
the virus penetrates the oral mucosal epi and neural ending and travels to the trigeminal ganglion
primary hepatic gingvostomatitis symptoms
painful, severe redness, ulcerations w/serofibrinous exudate, edema accompinied by stomatitis
viral origin ging characteristics (3)
- 1 wk incubation
- forms vesicles–>rupture–>coalesce–>leave fibrin coated ulcers
- healing 10-14 days
how long can the herpes virus stay latent in the trigeminal gang?
years!
is herpes virus found in periodontitis, ging, or NUD (NUG/NUP)
any
more primary infections of herpes occur at younger ages in industrialized countries t/f
f-older ages
percentage of ppl w/ primary hepatic gingvostomatitis who get recurring lesions?
20-40%
recurrent herpatic infections-herpes labialis more or less than 1/yr and where?
more (vermillion border and skin adjacent)
recurrent herpatic infections-triggers
stress, menstruation, uv, fever
recurrent herpatic infections: diagnosis
aphtous ulceration, ulcers attached to ging and hard palate
ging lesions of viral origin: can they be life threatening?
yes in immunocompromised pt’s
what’s the best way to collect and same from ging lesions of viral origin?
aspiration from vesicles
wiki: “Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB, FNA or NAB), or fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), is a diagnostic procedure used to investigate superficial (just under the skin) lumps or masses. In this technique, a thin, hollow needle is inserted into the mass for sampling of cells that, after being stained, will be examined under a microscope. “
blood samples can determine an increased what with regard to the virus?
increased antibody titer
histopathology is not specific
tx of ging lesions of viral origin (2)
- careful pq removal to limit bacterial superinfection of the ulcerations
- systemic uptake of antivirals like aciclovir
ging lesions of viral origin (herpes zoster) are latent where?
the dorsal root ganglion (then later it just has 2nd and 3rd trigeminal gang branches…)
