Periodontal Disease + PSR Flashcards
Periodontitis
chronic gingivitis > inflammatory response extends to attachments > loss of attached gingiva > loss of bone =
Clinical Attachment Loss
[CAL] CEJ to Base of Pocket
Gingivitis vs. Periodontitis
reversible vs not!
Healthy Cementum
0.05mm-0.25mm, thickest at apex, thinnest at CEJ
Periodontitis: Local Risk Factors
tilted teeth, oral jewelry, ill fitting appliances, mouth breathing, calculus, occlusal trauma
Periodontitis: Host Risk Factors
diabetes, smoking, xerstomia, self-care, stress, Rx, diet, age, gender, history

[initial periodontitis] CAL 1-2mm
Periodontitis: Stage 2
[moderate periodontitis] CAL 3-4mm
Periodontitis: Stage 3
[severe periodontitis w/ potential tooth loss] CAL >=5mm
Periodontitis: Stage 4
[severe periodontitis w/ potential dentition loss] CAL >=5mm
Periodontitis: Grade A
[slow rate] no loss over 5 years
Periodontitis: Grade B
[moderate rate] <2mm over 5 years
Periodontitis: Grade C
[rapid rate] >=2mm over 5 years
Periodontitis: Grading Risk Factors
