25
rampant caries
quickly spread through the mouth, occurs after frequent intake of sucrose and improper hygiene
26
root caries are found on teeth with
recession
27
Where are smooth surface caries found
interproximal areas - cervical third, lingual
28
what are arrested caries
caries that are detected early enough to remineralize. tooth must be monitered
29
secondary or reccurrent caries are found where
around the margins of restorations
30
3 categories of protection from saliva
physical (cleansing) , chemical (minerals), antibacterial (immunoglobulins)
31
instrumentation is the
use of an explorer to feel surface texture
32
what mineral in enamel makes it easier to dissolve
carbonate apatite
33
what is Hydroxyapatite
crystals in enamel that give structure. arranged in prisms/rods
34
what are the minerals found in saliva for remineralization
calcium, phosphorus, and fluoride
35
systemic fluoride
naturally occuring, ingested through food and water
36
topical fluoride is
directly applied to the teeth
37
what is the process when fluoride is applied
the fluoride replaces the hydroxyl ion, creating a fluoroapatite crystal. creating more reistance to acid
38
what stage in development is systemic fluoride intake most important
in pregnancy, the preeruptive development stage, the fluid filled sac surrounding the toothbud contains fluoride to strengthen enamel
39
what is fluorosis
permanent white spots on enamel. due to over exposure to fluoride during tooth development
40
who benefits most from optimum fluoride levels
still developing teeth and newley erupted teeth
41
what is fluorides antibacterial effect
it disrupts bacteria and its ability to metabolize sugars, meaning less acid is produced
42
what should the level of fluoride be in water supply
1ppm, less in hot climates
43
when fluoride is ingested how is it processed
through the bloodstream
44
how much is a lethal dose of fluoride
2.5-10 grams in adults, 0.25 grams in infants
45
how would you treat someone who has ingested a large amount of fluoride
having them drink milk
46
topical fluoride comes in what forms
gels, rinses, varnish, foam ane liquid
47
2% sodium fluoride is also known as __ and has a ___ pH
NaF, neutral pH
48
what fluoride is safe for use on restorations
2% sodium fluoride - NaF
49
1.23% acidulated fluoride is aka ___ and has a pH of
APF, 3-3.5 pH (acidic)
50
why is 8% stannous fluoride (SnF) not used
it is unstable snd can cause discolouration
51
when would you not apply fluoride
prior to selants, ortho placement, or cosmetic procedures
52
should you use a disclosing agent prior to sealants or composite procedures
no
53
what can occur due to improper brushing
abrasion, recession and root exposure
54
which brushing technique is the most common, goes subgingivally
modified bass
55
The bass technique is good for
plaque removal
56
what brushing technique is used for ortho parients
charters technique
57
the fones technique is used for
children
58
what brushing technique is used for periodontal patients or those with crowns and bridges
the modified stillman
59
when should flossing be done
before brushing
60
proxabrush/interproximal brushes are used to
clean interdental areas
61
what is a gum stimulator
rubber tip used to massage ginigva
62
dentifrices is aka
toothpaste
63
CHX
chlorahexadine
64
fluoridated mouth rinse contains how much fluoride
0.05% sodium fluoride. reduces caries by 17-47% with once a day rinsing
65
what is coronal polishing
removal of plaque and extrinsic stains
66
what is selective polishing
only polishing select teeth with stains to avoid removing unnecessary amount of enamel surface
67
bacteriemia
rotation of the rubber cup forcing bacteria into tissues
68
polishing is indicated when
stains are present, in preparation for sealants or fluoride
69
contraindications for polishing
``` no stains demineralized areas high risk of caries risk of transient bacteria resipratory problems sensitivity ```
70
what is an endogenous stain
a stain in the structure of tooth, from systemic or developmental causes (enamel hypoplasia)
71
an exogenous stain is
outside the toorh, from enviromental causes
72
exogenous divides into two sub categories being
intrinsic - permanent like tetracycline stain | extrinsic - removable like wine stains

what are the two types of sealant material
``` organic material filler material (composite) ```
76
what colors can sealants be
tinted, opaque, or clear
77
why would a fuoride release sealant be beneficial
