Periodontal surgery symposium P3 Flashcards

1
Q

what is gingival recession

A
  • DISPLACEMENT OF THE MARGINAL TISSUE APICAL TO THE CEJ
  • RECESSION INVOLVES
    ➢ MARGINAL GINGIVAE
    ➢ THE UNDERLYING BONE
  • MUST BE A BONY DEHISCENCE PRESENT

Q

what is oral mucose

A
  • Thin non-keratinised
    epithelium
  • Mobile
  • Not designed for
    masticatory forces

Q

how does orthodontics cause gingival recession

A
  • LOSS OF BUCCAL PLATE
  • BUCCAL TOOTH MOVEMENT ALWAYS CAUSES SLIGHT RECESSION AS A RESULT OF STRETCHING OF
    BUCCAL MUCOSA
  • NO CORRELATION BETWEEN AMOUNT OF
    KERATINISED GINGIVAE AND AMOUNT OF
    RECESSION OBSERVED

Q

exmaples of mechanical trauma causing gingival recession

A
  • TOOTHBRUSHING - DURATION, BRUSHING FORCE, FREQUENCY OF REPLACEMENT, BRISTLE
    HARDNESS AND TECHNIQUE
  • TRAUMATIC OVERBITE - CLASS II RELATIONSHIP
  • DENTURE TRAUMA “GUM STRIPPER”
  • REMOVABLE ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCES
  • HABITS - PEN/FINGERNAIL
  • FOREIGN BODY - LIP/TONGUE PIERCING
  • TRAUMATIC INJURY
  • IATROGENIC RESTORATION DAMAGE - BIOLOGICAL WIDTH

Q

CERVICAL RESTORATIVE
MARGINS

A
  • <2MM KM SITES WITH
    SUBGINGIVAL MARGINS ARE MORE
    PRONE TO GINGIVAL RECESSION
    AND INFLAMMATION
  • GINGIVAL AUGMENTATION MAY BE
    INDICATED FOR SUCH SITES?
  • LOW LEVEL OBSERVATION
    EVIDENCE

Q

IS KERATINISED MUCOSA IMPORTANT?

A

It is possible for gingival health to exist in areas with little/no attached gingivae..
But it is commonly agreed that areas with <2mm are at a higher risk of recession.

Q

case selection factors

A

PATIENT MOTIVATION, MEDICAL, SMOKING STATUS, EXPECTATIONS
* GENERAL STATE OF DENTITION
* MOBILITY, POCKETING, BOP, INFLAMMATION, PLAQUE
* TOOTH POSITION AND ROOT BULBOSITY
* RECESSION CLASSIFICATION, DEPTH, WIDTH
* INTERDENTAL ATTACHMENT LOSS
* RADIOGRAPHIC BONE LEVELS
* BIOTYPE – THICK/THIN
* FRENAL ATTACHMENT

Q

what are management options for gingival recession

A
  • ACCEPT/MONITOR
  • NONSURGICAL PERIODONTAL CARE
  • TAILOR ORAL HYGIENE/DESENSITISING TP
  • RESTORATIONS – LABIAL/INTERPROXIMAL
  • GINGIVAL PROSTHESES
  • ORTHODONTIC SPACE CLOSURE
  • BLACK TRIANGLES
  • ORTHODONTIC MOVEMENT INTO ALVEOLUS
  • SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
  • GINGIVAL AUGMENTATION
  • RECESSION COVERAGE
17
Q

INDICATIONS FOR
RECESSION SURGERY

A
  • FACILITATE ORAL HYGIENE (DISCOMFORT)
  • PREVENT PROGRESSION
  • AESTHETIC CONCERNS
  • DENTINE SENSITIVITY?
  • NCTSL/CARIES?
    > LACK OF EVIDENCE THAT PREVENTS TOOTH LOSS
18
Q

GOALS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT

A
  • ENHANCE PERIODONTAL REGENERATION
  • AVOIDANCE OF SCARRING (PROMOTE PRIMARY WOUND HEALING)
  • OPTIMAL TISSUE BLEND AND COLOUR
  • IMPROVE ACCESS FOR ORAL HYGIENE
  • 100% ROOT COVERAGE (!)
19
Q

general factors affecting gingival recession surgery

A
  1. Defect size - bigger=less favourable results
  2. Tissue blend and colour
    * HEALTHY THICK BROAD KERATINISED MUCOSA
    * COLOUR AND TEXTURE SHOULD BLEND WITH ADJACENT ENVIRONMENT
    * ABSENCE OF SCARRING
  3. improving access
    - prominent frenum
20
Q

patient factors affecting gingival recession surgery

A

ORAL HYGIENE
* POOR OH NEGATIVELY EFFECTS WOUND HEALING
* INCREASED RISK OF INFECTION
* REDUCED COLLAGEN FIBERS AFFECTS WOUND CLOSURE
* INCREASED INTRAOPERATIVE BLEEDING
Smoking
- NON-SMOKERS MORE LIKELY TO ACHIEVE COMPLETE ROOT COVERAGE

21
Q

what is primary wound healing

A

UNCOMPLICATED HEALING WITH LITTLE OR NO SCAR TISSUE
WOUND MARGINS
* SMOOTH
* PRECISELY APPROXIMATED
* TENSION FREE

22
Q

MICRO VS TRADITIONAL SURGERY

A

99% VS 90% MEAN ROOT
COVERAGE

23
Q

Surgical options

A

PEDICLED FLAPS
1. LATERALLY REPOSITIONED FLAP
2. DOUBLE PAPILLAE FLAP
3. CORONALLY ADVANCED FLAP -/+ SCTG
LATERALLY REPOSITIONED FLAP
3-SIDED CORONALLY ADVANCED FLAP (DESANCTIS)
FREE GRAFTS

24
Q

What is free grafts

A
  • HARVESTING SOFT TISSUE FROM A DISTANT SITE IN THE MOUTH
    AND GRAFTING IT OVER A LOCALISED RECESSION DEFECT
  • TWO SURGICAL SITES
  • GRAFT DOES NOT HAVE ITS OWN BLOOD SUPPLY - RELIES ON
    RECIPIENT SITE
    ➢ FREE GINGIVAL GRAFT
    ➢ CONNECTIVE TISSUE GRAFT
    ➢ CORONAL ADVANCED FLAP
    ➢ CORONAL ADVANCED TUNNEL
25
Q

adv and disadv of free grafts

A

LOW ROOT
COVERAGE
POTENTIAL
* POOR COLOUR
BLEND
* PALATE HEALS BY
SECONDARY
INTENSION
* FASTER
* PREDICTABLE
* INCREASES KM
WIDTH

26
Q

CONNECTIVE TISSUE GRAFTS

A
  • CT HARVESTED FROM THE PALATE
  • A THREE-SIDED/TWO-SIDED/SINGLE INCISION TO CREATE A TRAP DOOR
  • EPITHELIAL LAYER IS DISSECTED AWAY TO HARVEST CONNECTIVE TISSUE
  • GRAFT PLACED BETWEEN A SPLIT THICKNESS FLAP AT THE RECIPIENT SITE
  • GOLD STANDARD FOR MUCOGINGIVAL PROCEDURES
