21
Q

Why is it important to control causative factors of ginival enlargement prior to surgery

A

*will recur

22
Q

What drugs are implicated in gingival hyperplasia

A

calcium channer blockers
phenytoin (anti-epileptic)
cyclosporin (antirejection drug)

23
Q

What are the indications for gingivectomy

A
  • gingival enlargement or overgrowth
  • idiopathic gingival fibromatosis
  • falls pockets
  • minor corrective procedures
  • procedure done during lengthening of crowns for prosthetic tx
24
Q

What is false pockets

A

enlargement of gingival tissue without apical migration of the junctional epithelium attachmnet

25
Q

What are the aims of regenerative therapy

A
  • increase periodontal attachment in severely compromised teeth
  • dercease deep pockets to maintainable range
  • reduction of vertical and horizontal component of furcation defects
26
Q

What are the types of pockets/bone loss

A
  • horizontal bone loss
  • vertical bone loss
27
Q

What is horizontal bone loss also known as

A

supra bony pocket
base of the pocket is located coronally to the alveolar crest

28
Q

What is vertical bone loss also known as

A

infrabony pocket defect
apical end of pocket locaed below alveolar crest

29
Q

What is a crater defect

A

sits between two adjacent teeth

30
Q

Why are vertical defects hard to tx

A
  • narrow
  • poor visability
31
Q

What is the classification of intrabony deffect

A
  • one wall
  • two wall
  • three wall - best for regeneration tx
32
Q

What are the strategies for periodontal regeneration

A
  • space maintenance and clot protection
  • selective cell repopulation
  • provision of progenitor cells
  • use of signalling molecules
33
Q

What are the types of membranes that can be used in guided tissue regeneration

A
  • bioabsorbable
  • non-absorbable
34
Q

What are the objectives of bone grafts

A
  • space maintenance and clot protection
  • osteoconduction
  • osteoinduction
  • osteogenesis
35
Q

What is osteoconduction

A
  • the material acts as a scaffold
  • new bone grows onto the material
36
Q

What is osteoinduction

A
  • induces new bone growth via promotion of osteoblact activity

Osteoinduction is the process by which osteogenesis is induced. It is a phenomenon regularly seen in any type of bone healing process. Osteoinduction implies the recruitment of immature cells and the stimulation of these cells to develop into preosteoblasts.

37
Q

What is osteogenesis

A
  • osteoblasts persent in the graft
  • bone formation occurs
38
Q

What is grade I furcation involvement

A
  • early lesion
  • less than one third of horizontal attachment loss
39
Q

What is grade II

A
  • more than one third horizontal attachment loss but not through and through
40
Q

What is grade III

A
  • through and through
41
Q

What is the treatment aims of furcation involvement tx

A
  • elimination of the microbial plaque from the exposed surface of the root complex
  • establishment of an anatomy of the affected surface that facilitates proper self performed plaque control
42
Q

What are the different tx strategies for furcation involved tx

A
  • palliative - maintain plaque control
  • repair
  • regeneration
  • eliminate - resective treatmnet
43
Q

What is palliative treatment

A
  • non-symptomatic
  • functional
  • periodic debridement
  • periodontitis may progress a t slow rate
  • if reasonably firm and not too severe, the tooth can survive
  • because of access difficulties, non surgical tx is likely to be susccessful only in tx early graed lesions
44
Q

What are indications for periodontal regeneration in furcation defects

A
  • two and three proximal defects
  • graed II mandibular furcation deffects
  • grade II buccal maxillary furcation defects
45
Q

What is the technique for repair

A
  • small furcation
  • RSD
  • open flap debridement
46
Q

What are the difficulties with regenerative appraoches in furcation defects

A
  • furcation sites provide good space maintenace and clot protection
  • but they are difficult to adequately debride
  • they are relatively avascular
47
Q

What techniques can be used for regeneration of furcation defects

A

*guided bone regeneration

48
Q

How does open flap design compare with guided tissue regeneration when tx furcation defect

A
  • GTR results in greater vertical and horizontal bone fill
  • results are better in mandibular furcation
  • GTR + bone graft means even better results
49
Q

What are the different possible resective treatments

A
  • furcation plasty (mainly at buccal and lingual furcation
  • tunnel preparation to treat deep II and II furcation in mandibular molars
  • root resection/seperation/hemisection
50
Q

What are indications for extraction of teeth with furcation defects

A
  • recurrent symptoms
  • little remaining attachment
  • gross mobility
  • non functional teeth
