• Disrupts attachment of the most coronal of the JE attachment
• More stimulation of the immune system
• More PMNs, macrophages, and lymphocytes
• Plasma cells now produce large # of antibodies to assist
• This host response end up getting healthy CT destroyed

74
Q

Biofilm spreads laterally as well as apically along the root
• Chronic inflammation causes harm on periodontium
• PMNs & macrophages cause destruction of CT and PDL
• Macrophages produce byproducts that destroy alveolar bone
• Gingival pocket à Periodontal pocket
• Destruction caused by host response overwhelms any tissue repair attempt
• Clinically, periodontal pocket detected, bone loss, furcation involvement, possible mobility depending on extent
• Changes are irreversible

A

Advanced Lesion: Periodontitis

75
Q
  • Changes in color, contour, and consistency of gingival tissues
    • Can be observed clinically
  • 4-14 days after biofilm accumulation in sulcus
A

Gingivitis

Progression of Gingivitis 
• Tissue damage is reversible
 • Body can repair the damage 
• Gingivitis can persist without progressing into periodontitis! 
• This depends on the person
76
Q

Acute vs. Chronic Gingivitis

A
  • Acute gingivitis
  • Lasts for short period of time
  • Tissues appears swollen
  • Due to fluid in the gingival connective tissues
  • Chronic gingivitis
  • Lasts for longeràmonths or years!
  • Can result in more fibrotic tissue
77
Q
• JE located belownormal (apically) 
	• SE of pocket thickens

• Loss of connective tidsue
• Loss of alveolar bone
• Tissue damage irreversible v
78
Q
  • Inflammation spreading:
  • Into gingival CT
  • Into the alveolar bone
  • Into the PDL
  • Inflammation spreads like this because it’s the path of least resistance
  • Usually results in suprabony perio pocket
A

Horizontal Bone Loss Pathway

79
Q

Inflammation spreading:
• Into gingival CT
• DIRECTLY into PDL space
• Into alveolar bone
