Surgical & Nonsurgical Principles of Perio-Dr. Paquette Flashcards

1
Q

Critical Pocket Depths

A
  • surgical intervention:
    • > 5mm →Clinical attachment gain
    • Don’t do on pockets <5mm= clinical attachment loss
  • SRP:
    • < 4mm→clinical attachment gain
      • don’t do on pockets >3

Q

Gingival Curretage

A
  • invert gracey curettes
    • cutting edge towards pocket lining

Q

Restore Periodontal Health

A
  • Remove elements that cause inflamattion

Q

Disadvantages of Nonsurgical Therapy

A
  • Incomplete root preparation
    • plaque and calculus removal

Q

Advantages of Surgical Therapy

A

ACCESS!

  • Visual and mechanical access
    • Plaque, biofilm and calculus
      • 1-2 mm from bone
      • in infrabony defects, furcations, root concavities
  • Access to bone for respective procedures (osseous surgery)
    • restore physiological (positive) architecture
    • Ostectomy
    • Osteoplasty
  • Access to place regenerative Materials

Q

Timing of the Surgical Phase of Perio Therapy

A
  • Soft tissue response to initial therapy (SRP) has been assessed
    • Evaluation of initial therapy (EIT) or reevaluation
      • 4-6 wks
  • Patient compliance
    • Plaque accumulation ≤ 20%
    • General Motivation
  • Patient/dentist relationship already exists

Q

What is the rationale for the surgical phase of perio therapy?

A
  • control or eliminate perio disease
  • Correct anatomic conditions that favor:
    • perio progression
    • impair esthetics
    • impede placement of prosthetic appliances
  • Improve prognosis, function, and esthetics:
    • eliminate pathologic changes in pocket walls
    • create a stable, maintainable state
    • Promote regeneration
  • Place implants to replace teeth
    • improve environment for placement and function

Q

Anatomic considerations of Alveolar bone

A
  • 2mm away from CEJ
  • Scalloped appearance
    • mimics scalloping of gingiva
  • Dehiscence
  • Fenestration

Q

Osseous Structures

A
  • Mandible is more dense than maxilla
  • External Oblique ridge
    • more difficult to reflect flap
  • Vertical bony prominence of mandibular ramus
  • Maxillary sinus
  • Palatal exostosis or flat palate presentation
17
Q

Flap Design

A
  • Incision and manipulate tissue attached at a base
    • preserved blood supply
  • Types
    • Full Thickness Flap
    • Partial thickness flap
  • Avoid lingual and greater palatine arteries
18
Q

Full thickness flap vs partial thickness flap

A
  • Full Thickness Flap
    • reflect all soft tissue
      • gingiva, CT, periosteum
    • gain access to bone
  • Partial thickness flap
    • gingiva and CT (split CT)
    • correct soft tissue defect (ex: recession defect)
19
Q

Flap Design: Management of bleeding complications

A
  • Pressure, epinephrine, and/or suturing
20
Q

Perio Surgery: Innervation

A
  • CN5 (trigeminal) branches
    • motor portion=muscles of mastication
    • Sensory portion: Face, oral mucous membranes, teeth
    • V2 (Maxillary) and V3 (Mandibular) Divisions

Q

Perio Surgery: How do you reduce risk of nerve trauma?

A
  • Avoid mental and lingual nerve
    • take PA & PAN
22
Q

Anatomic Spaces

A
  • Found in subcutaneous or submucosal connective tissues
  • outlined by fascial membranes
    • allow communication w/orbit, neck, mediastinum
  • infection rate=low

Q
