Q

t/f PSR is recorded in sextants

A

yes. the probe has a 0.5mm ball at the end so the first line up is 3.5mm. the highest score is recorded for each sextant

23
Q

glickmans furcation II

A

loss of interradicular bone and pocket formation of varying depths into the furcation.
probe sticks

24
Q

glickmans furcation III

A

through and through lesion to the other side

25
Q

glickmans furcation IV

A

same as III with recession and the furca is clearly visible clinically

26
Q

max 1st: furcal aspect of the root is concave in what percent of MB roots

A

94

27
Q

max 1st: furcal aspect of root is concave in what percent of DB roots

A

31

28
Q

max 1st: furcal aspect of root is concave in what percent of P roots

A

17

29
Q

max 1st: where is the deepest furcal concavity found

A

MB root (about 0.3 mm)

30
Q

t/f the concavity in the mand 1st molar is bigger than the max 1st molar

A

true. about 0.7 mm

31
Q

mand 1st: furcal aspect of root is found in what percent of M roots

A

100

32
Q

mand 1st: furcal aspect of root is found in what percent of D roots

A

99

33
Q

why is it so hard to clean furcations

A

furcation is narrower than the instrument we use (curret) in 58% of 1st molars

34
Q

what do furcation triangle show us

A

there could be bone loss

35
Q

width of attached gingiva is the distance from

A

the bottom of the pocket to the mgj

36
Q

t/f lack of attached ging means there is loss of attachment

A

no

37
Q

how do you tell if the tissue is attached gingiva or mucosa

A

using the rolling technique, if you roll the probe and the tissue moves, it is mucosa, if not it is attached gingiva

38
Q

fremitus

A

movement of tooth when in function

39
Q

where does healthy bone lie in a radiograph

A

2mm below cej

40
Q

slight bone loss

A

loss up to 25% of root length

41
Q

moderate bone loss

A

bone loss from 25-50% of root

42
Q

severe bone loss

A

loss more than 50%

43
Q

t/f. angular/vertical bone loss can be fixed

A

true. you can place a bone graft, whereas horizontal you cannot

44
Q

what can radiographs tell you about a perio patient?

A
bone loss (amount and type), furcation involvement, overhangs, crown root ratio (should be less than 1)
must also check clinically to further evaluate radiographic findings
45
Q

how do you classify localized aggressive perio

A

M1 and incisors

46
Q

how do you classify generalized aggressive perio

A

3+ teeth in addition to M1 and molars

47
Q

how do you classify localized perio

A

less than 30% of sites

can be slight (1-2mm), moderate (3-4) or severe (5+)

48
Q

prognosis

A

prediction of the probable course, duration, and outcome of a disease based on a general knowledge of the pathogenesis of the disease and the presence of risk factors for the disease

49
Q

when do you establish the prognosis

A

after diagnosis, before tx plan

50
Q

determination of prognosis is what kind of process?

A

dynamic

51
Q

should the prognosis be reevaluated?

A

yes. after the completion of all phases of therapy and perio maintenance

52
Q

good prognosis

A

control of etiologic factors and adequate periodontal support ensure the tooth will be easy to maintain by the patient and clinician

53
Q

fair prognosis

A

25% of AL, Class I furcation involvement

54
Q

poor prognosis

A

50% AL, Class II furcation

55
Q

questionable prognnosis

A

more than 50% AL, poor crown:root ratio, poor root form, Class II/III furcation, more than 2+ mobility, root proximity

56
Q

hopeless prognosis

A

inadequate attachment to maintain health, comfort, and function, class 3 mobility

57
Q

Tx protocol for periodontitis

A
  1. ohi and Tx plan discussion
  2. intial therapy: SRP
  3. reeval (4-6 wks) with ohi
  4. probe deph resolved (pocket 3mm or less) = perio maintenence
  5. probe deph not resolved = surgery/referral with perio maintenance
