Perio sweep 1 Flashcards
Gingival Diseases Modified by Systemic Factors Associated with:
the endocrine system (endocrinotropic)
blood dyscrasias
medications
nutrition
Endocrinotropic Gingival Diseases
puberty-associated gingivitis menstrual cycle-associated gingivitis pregnancy-associated gingivitis pregnancy-associated pyogenic granuloma diabetes mellitus-associated gingivitis
menstrual cycle-associated gingivitis –
nonsense, they looked at crevicular fluid flow, but clinically you won’t really see this.
Gingival Disease Associated with Blood Dyscrasias:
Leukemia-associated gingivitis
gingival lesions are primarily found in acute leukemia
reductions in dental plaque can limit the severity of lesion
Gingival Disease Modified by Nutrition
Ascorbic acid-deficiency gingivitis
Malnourished individuals have a compromised host defense system which may make individuals susceptible to infectious diseases
The precise role of nutrition in periodontal diseases
remains to be elucidated.
Human studies have failed to show a relationship between nutrition and periodontal diseases
Chronic Periodontitis aka
formerly adult perio
Chronic Periodontitis
Clinical manifestations
Pocket formation Loss of attachment Bleeding/suppuration Bone loss Tooth mobility and drifting
Number one difference between gingivitis and other periodontal disease is
attachment loss.
Chronic Periodontitis: ———- frequent finding
subgingival calculus
Chronic Periodontitis usually ——– progression
slow
Chronic Periodontitis: Can be associated with
local predisposing factors (e.g., tooth-related) – diabetes ex
Chronic Periodontitis: extent, severity:
extent localized < 30% generalized (>30%) severity slight - 1 to 2 mm CAL moderate - 3 to 4 mm CAL severe - > 5 mm CAL
Aggressive Periodontitis formerly known as
prepubertal periodontitis
localized juvenile periodontitis
generalized juvenile periodontitis
early-onset periodontitis
Aggressive perio Can be identified as either:
localized
generalized
Aggressive Periodontitis common features:
systemically healthy
rapid attachment loss and bone destruction
familial aggregation
Aggressive Periodontitis secondary features:
generally but may not be universally present
microbial deposits are inconsistent with the amount of periodontal destruction
elevated Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis
phagocyte abnormalities
hyper-responsive macrophage phenotype (e.g., elevated levels of PGE2 and IL-1b
progression may be self-arresting
Localized Aggressive Periodontitis ———- onset
Circumpubertal
LAP: ———– to infecting agents
Robust serum antibody response
LAP: Localized first molar/incisor presentation
interproximal attachment loss on at least
2 permanent teeth
one of which is a molar
involving no more than 2 teeth other than first molars and incisors
Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis characteristics
Poor serum antibody response to infecting agents
Pronounced episodic nature of destruction of attachment and bone
Generalized interproximal attachment loss affecting at least 3 permanent teeth other than first molars and incisors.
Perio Associated with hematologic disorders
acquired neutropenia
leukemias
Perio Associated with genetic disorders
Familial & cyclic neutropenia
Down syndrome
Leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome
Papillon-Lefèvre – collagen defect. 1/1000000
Trisomy and perio
Down syndrome autosomal inherited trisomia of chromosome 21 frontal prominence/mesial epicanthus periodontium severe inflammation accelerated attachment loss PMN chemotaxis and killing defects
Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome
autosomal recessive hereditary disorder
rapid periodontal destruction around primary and permanent teeth which occurs before puberty
Chediak-Higachi syndrome
autosomal recessive hereditary disorder
rapid periodontal destruction around primary and permanent teeth which occurs before puberty
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (types IV & VIII)
autosomal dominant hereditary disorder
aggressive periodontitis (primary and permanent dentitions); fragility of gingiva, excessive hemorrhage
NPD —– is why patients come in
pain. have punched out papilla.
NPD: Early Clinical Signs
Necrotic lesion of the papilla initially then progressing to gingival margin.
Punched-out appearance
Spontaneous bleeding
Pain
NPD: Advanced Lesion
Lack of deep pockets
Merging of papillary and marginal involvement
Characteristic foetor
Central necrosis results in crater formation
Involvement of periodontal ligament and alveolar bone (NUG NUP)
