Systemic Antimicrobials - Part 2 Flashcards
Adult periodontitis is called …. As of 1999
Chronic periodontitis
Early onset periodontitis is called …. As of 1999
Aggressive periodontitis
How to differentiate between chronic and aggressive periodontitis - Old 1999 classification
Dependent on
- clinical features
- age of onset
- rate of progression
- pattern of destruction
- signs of inflammation
- relative amounts of plaque / calculus
Multifactorial complex interactions…
- host factors
- microbiology
- genetics
- predisposition - race
Old 1999 classification - features of chronic periodontitis include
- Most prevalent in adults, but can occur inchildren and teenagers
- Slow to moderate progression + exacerbations
- Plaque is the main aetiology
- Destruction consistent with local factors
(subgingival calculus frequent finding) - Modifying factors include:
local and systemic factors, smoking, stress, poorly controlled diabetes - Treat in usual 3 phases - no systemic antibiotics
Old 1999 classification - common features of aggressive periodontitis include
Common features generally present:
- except for periodontitis, patients healthy – Non-contributory MH
- rapid attachment loss and bone destruction
- familial aggregation
Localised form (old terminology used to include:
- Localised Juvenile Periodontitis (LJP)
Or
- Localised Early Onset Periodontitis (LEOP))
Generalised form (old terminology used to include:
- Generalised early onset periodontitis (GEOP)
Or
- Rapid progressive periodontitis (RPP)
Clinical and radiographic features of localised aggressive periodontitis
- Localised first molar/incisor presentation
- Clinical attachment loss (CAL)
- Deep pockets in association with CAL
- Gingival inflammation may/not be evident
Alveolar bone loss
- angular defects incisors
- arc shaped bone loss first molars
- often symmetrical distribution right/left
- Amount of plaque may not be consistent with amount of Periodontal destruction present
Old 1999 classification - secondary features of aggressive periodontitis
- Amounts microbial deposits inconsistent with severity of periodontaltissue destruction
- Elevated proportions Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. a) and in some populations, P. gingivalis may be elevated
- Phagocyte abnormalities
- Hyper-responsive macrophage phenotype, including elevated levels of PGE2 and IL-1Beta
- Progression of attachm
OLD 1999 CLASSIFICATION – FEATURES OF LOCALISED AGGRESSIVE PERIODONTITIS
Specific features:
Circumpubertal onset
Robust serum antibody response to infecting agent
(Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, A.a)
- Localised first molar/incisor presentation
- interproximal attachment loss CAL on at least two permanent teeth, one of which is a first molar, and involvingno more than two teeth other than first molars/incisors
Difference between 1999 and 2018 periodontal disease classification
Chronic and aggressive periodontitis is now recognised as the same disease entity however classified according to staging and grading & MIP (molar incisor pattern)
New classification 2017
Forms of periodontitis
2017 classification now classifies the stages of a diagnosis based on severity and complexity of management as well as the rate of progression
Periodontitis grade
1999 classification -
necrotising ulcerative periodontal disease (NUG/P)
Known as what as of 2017 classification?
Necrotising periodontal disease
1999 classification -
Periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease )
Known as what as of 2017 classification?
Periodontitis as direct manifestation of systemic disease
Definition of periodontitis – EFP S3 clinicalguidelines – Mariano Sanz et al 2020
A periodontitis case is defined by the loss of periodontal tissue support, which is commonly assessed by radiographic bone lossor interproximal loss of clinical attachment measured by probing.
Other meaningful descriptions of periodontitis include thenumber and proportions of teeth with probing pocket depth over certain thresholds (commonly >4 mm with BOP and ≥6mm), the number of teeth lost due to periodontitis, the number of teeth with intrabony lesions and the number of teeth withfurcation lesions
Why did we change from the 1999 to 2018 classification
Absence of universally accepted ‘case’ definitions for aggressive/chronic periodontitis
Difficult to study
Epidemiology, Aetiology, Pathogenesis, Treatment
New ‘case’ definitions proposed
Recent aggressive periodontitis estimates:
1%-15% <35 yrs of age; few studies <20 y
What factors do you base the differences clinically between
aggressive and chronic periodontitis
Generalised and localised
- severity - how severe
- extent - how widespread in sites/teeth
- rate of progression - how fast / presence of risk factors (local or systemic)
2018 classification - what does it recognise chronic and aggressive periodontitis as?
Current evidence does not support distinction between Chronic and Aggressive periodontitis as two separate diseases
However, substantial variation in clinical presentation exists in terms of extent & severity of periodontitisthro’ age spectrum suggesting population subsets withdistinct disease trajectories caused by differences inexposure and/or susceptibility
Because current evidence does not support distinction between Chronic and Aggressive periodontitis as two separate diseases, the New 2017 periodontitis classification…
Chronic and aggressive periodontitis grouped undersingle category of Periodontitis
Further categorised on a multi-dimensional Staging and Grading system
- First step is to identify Periodontitis by presenceinterdental Clinical Attachment Loss
- Simple matrix of Stage of disease (Severity, Complexity,Extent)
- Then Grade (Rate of progression, risk factor)
- First step is to identify Periodontitis by presenceinterdental Clinical Attachment Loss
- Simple matrix of Stage of disease (Severity, Complexity,Extent)
- Then Grade (Rate of progression, risk factor)
Why is periodontitis identified by INTERDENTAL attachment loss?
Not buccal or lingual because sometimes there are non periodontal attachment loss in the buccal / lingual regions
- due to other factors such as aggressive brushing habits / gingival recession
3 steps to staging and grading a pt
According to 2017 classification, a patient is a periodontitis case in the context of clinical care if…
- Interdental CAL is detectable at >2 non adjacent teeth
OR
- Buccal or oral CAL >3mm with pocketing >3mm is detectable at >2 teeth
And the observed CAL cannot be ascribed to non-periodontal causes
What is detectable interdental CAL
Key to periodontitis case definition is the notion of ‘detectable’ interdental CAL: the clinician being able to specifically identify areas of attachment loss during periodontal probing or direct visual detection of the interdental CEJ during examination, taking measurement error and local factors into account
