Q

List the root changes hindering tissue attachment: (4)

33
Q

Removal of the connective and epithelial attachment circumferentially with a scalpel:

34
Q

The excision of the soft tissue wall of the periodontal pocket, the incision forms an external bevel or surface that is exposed to the oral cavity:

A

gingivectomy

35
Q

Gingival deformities are shaped and reduced to create a normal and functional form. The incision creates an external bevel:

A

gingivoplasty

36
Q

removal of the total piece:

A

-ectomy

37
Q

re-shaping the existing structure:

A

-plasty

38
Q

A pocket above the bone level:

A

suprabony pocket

39
Q

Elimination of SUPRABONY pockets which cannot be adequately debrided without tissue removal would indicate:

A

Gingivectomy

40
Q

Eliminatino of SUPRABONY pockets if the pocket wall is fibrous and firm and therefore will not shrink after non-surgical therapy would indicate:

A

Gingivectomy

41
Q

What procedure should be performed in the following scenario?

Suprabony pockets which can’t be adequately debrided without tissue removal:

A

gingivectomy

42
Q

What procedure should be performed in the following scenario?

Suprabony pockets if the pocket wall is fibrous and firm and therefore will not shrink after non-surgical therapy:

A

43
Q

What procedure should be performed in the following scenario?

Needing access for restorative therapy in the presence of suprabony pockets:

A

gingivectomy

44

A

esthetics

52

In this case there is a lack of keratinized tissue

53
Q

The following are contraindications for: ______

-access is needed to infrabony defects
-base of pocket is apical to MG junction

A

Gingivectomy

54

A

Relatively simple and fast

55
Q

List the disadvantages to a gingivectomy:

A

56
Q

What type of pockets are necessary to perform a gingivectomy?

A

SUPRABONY defects

57
Q

How long is the healing period for gingivectomy?

A

4-5 weeks

Q

T/F: A gingivectomy is more effective than flap surgery

A

False- a gingvectomy is LESS effective than flap surgery because no access to osseous defects

59
Q

A gingivectomy does not allow for access to:

A

Osseous defects

60
Q

Gingivectomy technique invovles:

  1. ____ of the pocket depth
  2. ____ of the gingiva with incision starting ____ to the pocket base and externally beveled at a _____ angle
A
  1. marking
  2. resection; apical; 45 degrees
61
Q

During a gingivectomy, the incision should start ________

The incision should be externally beveled at a ______

A

apical to the pocket base

45 degree angle

62
Q

What should be AVOIDED during a gingivectomy?

A

bone exposure

63
Q

If possible during a gingivectomy, there should be:

A

complete removal of pocket

64
Q

When performing a gingivectomy thick tissue will require:

A

a more apical start of the incision

65
Q

During a gingivectomy what requires a more apical start of the incision?

A

Thick tissue

66
Q

T/F: With the gingivectomy technique it can be accomplished with an internal bevel incision, however it is more difficult with this approach
