THEORY Prior to 1980:
Continuous Progression Theory
THEORY After the 1980s:
Intermittent Progression Theory
THEORY 1990s and up:
Multifactorial model
Epidemiologic studies to identify disease in a population
Measure the amount and severity of a disease
Periodontal research (clinical trials) to make comparisons
Monitor progress
The purpose of Indices in dentistry
Clinical uses for Plaque Index
Used as a measurement tool for the provider and a learning tool for the patient. Gives a numerical value of a goal
In healthy individuals you will find mostly gram _____ bacteria and cocci. As you get more and more disease the bacteria start changing from ____ to _____ and from cocci- to rods/spirochetes.
healthy = gram positive bacteria and cocci. more disease the bacteria start changing from positive to negative and from cocci- to rods/spirochetes.
Systemic factors Genetic factors Systemic Medications SES Lifestyle habits/social behaviors Dental History
Risk Factors in PRA to be able to ID
Risk Factors in PRA: Systemic factors
-
Risk Factors in PRA: Genetic factors Neutropenia leads to
Neutropenia (very rare blood disorder) -Congenital or developed -Patients are immunocompromised -Higher plaque scores, bleeding, inflammation and bone loss due to lack of platelets
Risk Factors in PRA: Systemic Medications Antihypertensive results in
Gingival inflammation
Risk Factors in PRA: SES
Stress Low SES Access to care Oral health literacy
Risk Factors in PRA: Lifestyle habits/social behaviors
Smoking, smokeless tobacco Alcohol Drug use Oral self care Diet/nutrition Obesity
Risk Factors in PRA: Dental History
CC Previous periodontal care Existing restorations Occlusion/malocclusion Alignment Orthodontic care
Risk Factors in PRA: Genetic factors Down syndrome leads to
Rapid destruction 58-96% have periodontitis
Risk Factors in PRA: Systemic Medications Anticonvulsant, CCB, Immunosuppressives result in
Gingival overgrowth
Risk Factors in PRA: Systemic Medications Antianxiety results in
Increase in biofilm formation
Which disease causes: Connective tissue destruction and bone loss Poor wound healing High blood glucose Host inflammatory response to microbes
Diabetes Mellitus
Which systemic condition causes: Inflammation of the gingiva Gingival enlargement Oral infections
Leukemia
What condition would exhibit: Linear gingival erythema
AIDS

Hormonal fluctuations - Puberty Boys vs girls - who has more gingivitis
Boys have more gingivitis
How can Hormonal fluctuations with Pregnancy affect periodontal disease?
Pregnancy gingivitis Pregnancy tumor

Which Immune System: What we are born with
Innate
Which Immune System: Has the ability to recognize pathogens and eliminate them
Innate
Which Immune System: The complement system is important because it helps antibodies in fighting off infection and controlling inflammation through 21 plasma proteins
Innate
Which Immune System: Secondary immune system-developed
Adaptive
Which Immune System: Helps when the other immune system fails
Adaptive
Which Immune System: Uses B-cells to manufacture antibodies that protect against antigens
Adaptive
Which Immune System: It takes more than five days to develop an antibody response
Adaptive

MMP Enzymes
biofilm and the host response:
Function of the Slime Layer
A layer around a biofilm during the maturation phase Protective layer

-
Clinical signs of Chronic Inflammation
No symptoms, may present with “healthy”/stippled looking gingiva. Gingiva will appear fibrotic Cardinal signs may be absent or negligible

REMINDER - in previous years, a good chunk of the quiz info came from the VoiceThread lectures in their weeks 3 and 4. We have VoiceThreads week 3 and 5, but also review week 4 in general.
