Periodontal Screening and management of periodontal conditions Flashcards
What are the aims of the 2012 guidelines
early recognition of gingival and periodontal conditions
a practical guide for primary care
appropriate treatment or early referral to pediatric or periodontal specialist services
early OHI to encourage good dental habits for life
What is an mnemonic for classification 2017
please give greg nine mercy pigs straight past meal time tonight
What is the staging
inter proximal bone loss at worst site of bone loss
stage 1,2,3,4
What is grading
rate of progression
%bone loss/age
grade A,B,C
How do we assess current periodontal status
currently stable
currently in remission
currently unstable
Where is the GM often seen in a healthy periodontium
several mm coronal to CEJ
How deep can the gingival sulcus be in a healthy periodontium
0.5-3mm deep
Where is the alveolar crest usually seen in a healthy periodontium
0.4-1.9mm apical to CEJ (teens)
What is the aim BOP
<10%
What are the statistics on the prevalence of gingivitis in children
2/3 of 8-12 year olds
1/3 of 5 YO
half of 15 YO
What are the types of gingivitis
dental biofilm induced (localized, generalized)
gingival diseases and conditions: non dental-biofilm induced
What happens in gingivitis
supra gingival plaque accumulates on teeth
inflammatory cell infiltrate develops on gingival connective tissue
JE becomes disrupted
allows apical migration of plaque and an increase in gingival sulcus depth
results in false pocket
What is the appearance of necrotising ulcerative gingivitis
blunted papilla
malodour
painful gingival
no attachment loss
What is the etiology of NUG
fusiform and spirochete
What are px risk factors for NUG
smoking, stress, immunosuppression, poor diet
HIV status or other underlying condition
What is puberty gingivitis
increased inflammatory response to plaque that is mediated by hormonal changes
in teens gingivitis can progress to early periodontitis
local and systemic factors can influence progression
What are causes of gingival diseases that are non-dental biofilm induced
trauma genetic infective drug induced manifestations of systemic disease
