Seminar notes Flashcards
Keratinisation of the epithelium that covers the sulcus is
Non keratinised
Reevaluation after hygienic phase takes place
6 weeks to 6 months after
Periodontal status includes
-Mobility
-Implant
-Furcation involvement
-Probing depth
-Gingival margin level
Periodontal status is done after
Scaling
Four main phases of periodontal treatment
-Systemic
-Hygienic
-Corrective
-Supportive(maintenance)
Re-evaluation can occur after
Hygienic and corrective phase
Periodontal chart is part of the
Hygienic phase
Grade 1 mobility
1mm horizontal mobility
Grade 2 mobility
over 1mm horizontally
Grade 3 mobility
Vertical and horizontal mobility
Gingival margin definition
Distance measured in mm with a periodontal probe from the gingival margin to the CEJ
Probing depth
Distance measured in mm with a periodontal probe from the gingival margin to the bottom of the sulus/pocket
Value that cant be 0
Probing depth
Value that can be 0. negative or positive
Gingival margin
Histological probing depth smaller than clinical probing depth because
Probe can be inserted into epithelial junction
